Microsoft Corp Xbox 360 & Live Features Include:

  • Gamer card: Get a quick look at the key stats for your friend or that new player who just challenged you to a multiplayer match. Like a personal identification card, the gamer card gives you a quick overview of other personalities on Xbox Live: their Gamertag, Gamerzone, Achievements, Reputation, and
    Gamerscore. Gamer cards let you instantly connect with people with similar
    skills, interests, and lifestyles, as well as maintain bragging rights over
    your achievements and scores.

  • Gamerscore: A cumulative score of all achievements allows you to quickly compare
    profiles between other gamers.

  • Reputation:
    A rating provided by the community indicates how you are perceived by other
    players. Think of it as the Xbox Live equivalent of a reliability rating.

  • Gamerzone: Your Gamerzone indicates your style of social gaming. The
    choices are R&R, for those who just want to hang out and play without undue
    competitive stress; Pro, for those who are fiercely competitive and must win
    at all costs; Underground, for those who take an alternative approach to
    gaming; and Family, for those who want to make sure the environment they
    play in is kid-friendly.

  • Achievements: Whether offline or on, you can earn achievements and
    accolades in all Xbox 360 games to indicate progress, skill, and
    accomplishment. Taking achievements online lets you compare what you've
    accomplished with your friends, or use them as indicators of skill to new
    friends. Achievements are bragging rights redefined.

  • Intelligent Matchmaking

    Using profile data such as location, Reputation, Gamerscore, and Gamerzone,
    the matchmaking system on Xbox Live will help ensure that you are matched
    with the users you want to play with.

  • Spectator Mode

    This is the "virtual arcade," a chance for you to watch other gamers compete
    in supported titles. Games that support this feature will give you the
    ability to participate online without having to compete. Learn tips and
    tricks, or just sit back and enjoy the show.

  • Feedback

    With Xbox 360, Xbox Live lets you provide feedback on other players that
    will determine how frequently you are matched with them. Give them a good
    rating, and matches will happen frequently if you're both available. Give
    them a bad rating, and you're far less likely to play with them online
    again.

  • User Safety and Security

    The new, more robust safety and security features in Xbox 360 help parents
    control the online and offline game experiences of their children by
    determining whether they can play online and whom they play with, and by
    locking the console to play only games that meet a certain rating.
  • Message Center

    All of your notifications, voice and video messages, and even system- and
    service-based communications will be stored in one location.

  • Enhanced Friends List

    Not only will you be able to review a prospective friend's gamer card to
    help determine whether or not to add them to your Friends List, but you'll
    also be able to see your friends' Friends Lists.

  • Exclusive Programming

    Xbox Live is "always on"—something's always happening. The exclusive Prime
    Time Calendar is your destination for all information about events on Xbox
    Live. Play your favorite Xbox Live titles against real-world celebrity
    gamers through programs like Game with Fame and Mystery Gamer, and
    participate in unique promotions like "Play and Win."

  • Tournaments and Competitions

    Xbox Live-sponsored tournaments will continue across a multitude of
    different titles and genres. More and more games will also support
    gamer-created tournaments on Xbox Live for Xbox 360.
