From what I've found out the beta that me and Console Steve are gonna be part of, will be providing feed back to MS about it. And the Test Drive, which starts on the 30th November, will just allow a few to test it, with out providing feed back

I've found this from http://www.officialxboxmagazine.co.uk/forums/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=8

Yeah, you can get an Xbox Live pack from the Microsoft site from November the 30th, and anyone can get one as long as they have an Xbox and a broadband connection.

ahh i see, you're one of the lucky 3000 then are u? :)

Yea the open beta which kicks off on the 30th Nov is pretty much for anyone in the UK from what MS have told me.

Well done for getting in the early beta though :)

Finally got it all setup, and it's ace :)

Been playing Moto GP alot. The americans a v. good at it, but then they had more time to practise

Whacked it a bit pants, haven't played it online yet.

It dosn't seem laggy at all, which you'd expect from broadband.

The voice comms. seems to work fine as well, just that most people are slient while playing Moto GP, though in the waiting room, they are a bit more lively ;)

Not sure if the demo at i14 will give ppl the chance to really see it work. But I like it, just needs more games, I guess though, this is why it's in beta
