I got it...

I gotta say that it's so awesome to be able to text message via keyboard now! I really put that 255 character limit to shame. I hope they double that so that we get more space... It's just not enough anymore.

Oh, and for those who got in, invite me into a game of Bug Bash!

I didn't even know they had a beta sign up. Is it still too late to sign up for the beta?

Unfortunately yes.

Unfortunately yes.

I hate you. :|



But seriously, I wanted to try out Windows Live. It should be a blast.

I swear, if I don't get in I will stab several people. /looks at how old my Gold account is, the numerous betas I'm active in on Connect, etc

If you don't, don't worry.

All it is, is a game called Bug Bash, which is really simple and is just there to entertain us. The real meat is when you can go in and use the guide, browse achievements, message people on Xbox or PC, etc from within the app.

It's not like you have long to wait either until you get access next month with Halo2 Vista.

*Edit* I emailed them asking about what else we would do, and they said that this beta is really short and we will only test Bug Bash.

FSX Beta FTW!

So I'm not missing out on much ? Yay.

Nope you're not missing out on anything huge. You just get to sort of see how the service connects with Xbox360 users, which still is cool though.
