    Yeah, lots of tips, here's just a few...

    1. Remember you can always "mute" other players if they're annoying you by screaming down the mic or other equally annoying stuff...

    2. Don't expect to be any good at online play immediately. You're probably used to playing against AI characters in single player campaigns, however, playing against real people is a very different experience. Allow yourself time to adjust and enjoy the new challenge.

    3. If you have close friends already using XBL then try to play with them, as playing with friends really does add to the experience. In saying that, I've meet a bunch of people through XBL over the last 5/6 years that I now consider good friends and play with regularly.

    4. Do not, under any circumstances, believe anyone that tells you they know where or how to get free mircosoft points. They do not and have never existed for free. Immediately report them to MS for trying to scam you. Also, never give your password to anyone, otherwise they have access to your entire Windows Live account.

    5. On a hardware issue, make sure the NAT settings on your router/xbox are set to OPEN. There's plenty of websites and threads on here that will explain how and why to do this... GOOGLE is your friend ;)

    OK, that's enough for now. Enjoy the new experience. Have any issues, all you have to do is ask and someone here will help you.
