On you're Xbox when you start it up it will ask you to sign in. Sign in using the info you used to actually create the account.
It's made by them, that's why it's linked to Microsoft :D x
You can create your a profile and made it silver.
Yah, I'm pretty sure you can.
Yes your gamerscore will be the exact same as it was before you made your live acount
Nope.
ou need xbox gold membership
No, sorry. Microsoft are really tight when it comes to gamer scores. All you can do is to create a new gamer tag while signed in with your current one (with the gamerscore) You might have to alter the name slightly if it has been taken already. Any points will be carried over to the NEW account.
i think it was made some time after the original Xbox came out
The xbox 360 is made for to play with other people online
it's not only madden it's for all games that were made by ea so to acces the online play you must have an ea account on that player that your signed on to ( it happened to me with LOTR:conquest and on that demo of LOTR it tells you the same thing) look arround maybe some were it ask you to create a ea account that is atoumaticly used every time you play online by a game created by ea.
No, I'm sorry to tell you this. Actually, you can join it for free and use a Xbox Live trial membership, however, after that runs out, the account is made a silver membership until the person(s) can purchase gold membership again.
you cant yes you can! the only thing is that if you made a new account then there isnt... but if you were able to just upgrade you account all of your crap is still there. however progress you made on a non-live game will not be transferred to you live one. ie: if you play MW2 and get to level 70 split screen it doesnt transfer to xbox live.
