10 ways to operate your Xbox 360 better
Here are 10 ways i have listed below which can help you to operate your Xbox 360 better.
Tip #1:Don’t leave your device on for more than 6 hours. The reason is, it can result in a ‘burnt’ image on your TV set. So always, make sure you avoid using more than 6 hours. Use the Xbox dashboard to shut off.
Tip #2: The music in a game can make the volume of sound effects low. Use the Xbox media player to lower the sound of the music player.
Tip #3: What to do if people are bothering you online while playing a game with couple of friends? Best thing is set your online status to ‘Busy’, ‘Away’ or even ‘Appear Offline’. This can mask your status so your contacts won’t bother you. Follow these steps. Click Guide button and then ‘Personal Options’, then change your status.
Tip #4: Keep charging the batteries if you are using a wireless controller. This can help in playing for long. If you don’t want worrying to keep good batteries in your controller, then go and get a Play and Purchase kit.
Tip #5: If you want to remove the HDD, you can remove it so that you can insert in another one or take it with you to places. Just click the button towards the front of HDD, pull and you are done! If you want to insert back, slide in back end first and bring down into its place until you hear a click. Don’t press too hard.
Tip #6: Use the Xbox Live Marketplace for downloads. You can download game content, trailers, arcade titles, demos and more. Use the dashboard to access. Note that you need to be connected to internet in order to download content.
Tip #7:Don’t want gamertag anymore? If you want to change to something new you can, provided it will cost. On the Dashboard, open your profile and go to “Edit Gamer profile”. Then hit “Gamertag”. Once done, you can change your gamertag to something new. Doing this can cost you 800 Microsoft Points.
Tip #8: Whenever you don’t play, keep charging your controller. Keep your Play and Charge cable plugged in before shutting off Xbox 360. So your controller will charge even though your console is shut down.
Tip #9: Keep your Xbox 360 to Busy or Away when watching a movie, or to temporarily stop notification pop-ups. You can also stop notifications by changing your personal settings.
Tip #10: If you want to send messages, you don’t have to be friendly with someone. Send messages to anyone just by putting in the Gamertag who you want to send a message. You can use the Guide button to send messages, or can use the dashboard.
