kentarulez Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 This may sound stupid, but how do you use your xbox? I don't mean as a bowl for soup, or a weapon against burglars or anything like that. I mean some people use it as a media system to have music going while they game, some use it as a DVD player. I personally use it as a way of helping with homework. I can sometimes modify questions into xbox 360 related things, helping me answer them, or I can set a time based achievement going and get some homework done. I also alternate by doing some homework, then some xbox, repeat until homework's done. I'm deleting all the music off it cos I have my laptop for that, or my MP3. So yeah, how do you use it?

Jagged 88 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I use my xbox as a release from life to relax and just have some fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FurryMohkis Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 You press eject and placed DVD to play movie. Upon inserting CD, you can rip it and listen to the music whenever you want afterwards after creating a playlist. EDIT: Whoops. Totally misunderstood the topic. Uh, I use it for gaming. Sometimes, I like to look at movies from it too but mostly use my computer for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamerboii41277 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I only use it for gaming. The fan is so loud and stuff that like my DVD player is quieter so I don't like to use it to play DVDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? Anyway, I use it for gaming and watching DVDs. And now for Last.fm too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuYi Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Just for gaming really, though it does a neat job warming my hands in winter lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specVjavi Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 i play games with it. but with the netflix update and the more recent last.fm update, i now use it a lot more for movies and for listening to music. Last.fm on the xbox is the greatest thing to have ever happened to it, although i am a bit more partial towards Pandora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djswivel Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Play games, dvds & hd-dvds, and also as a media centre extender. It sees a lot of use as a media centre extender... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you by any chance grade 5? No offence. I use it for gaming, listening to music and sometimes watching DVDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phate Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I use it for gaming, surprisingly enough. I stream movies from my PC to it, stream music from my PC to it, use Last.FM if I fancy listening to some stuff I might not have heard before, use Facebook until the novelty wears off AGAIN, quickly check Twitter if I'm bored at the dashboard, use Sky Player to watch documentaries (watching the one about the Nazi's and the Occult sometime soon)... That's about it. Sometimes I use it as a point of reference when pondering the question "where is my life going?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester Stephan Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 As well as gaming I use my 360 to listen to music and use Last.fm. Other than that I think I've used it to watched a film once or twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kentarulez Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 @ Daiphyer, no I'm not, lol, but that was a simple example so I didn't have to think about it all that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xedoss Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Just games really. Nothing else. Won't be using that noisy machine for dvd's or Zune movies any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave1707 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I use it mainly for gaming. But have started using it to stream movies and videos from my pc which is in another room and also listen to music using lastfm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P I Staker30 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I use it as a improvised awesomeness device. I.E. I use it for whatever the hell I want, I've used it to beat my sister out of my room before..it was in the box but still! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemocasa Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 It's my media player and gaming machine. I watch DVDs on it and stream music and movies/television shows from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearl-drum-man Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Probably 95% gaming, and about 5% Netflix streaming. Don't really use it much at all for music, or any of the newer social functions like Facebook, do all of that through my iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starstrukk X360A Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 DVD player and gaming. Especially considering it's hooked up via an HDMI cable. Oh, the sexyness that is high definition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
