    Was wondering if any of you can answer a question for me about GTA on the Xbox360. Long story short the eldest is not allowed to use stuff from our house at his dad's and vice-versa. Thing is his dad won't buy him xbox live but he did buy him GTA5 even though (or because of?) we told the eldest he was too young for it.

    Anyway he started using his Xbox Live on another console, possibly at his dad's*, and we noticed this because he bought some shark cards for GTA. The eldest says his cousin bought him these so he could play the same stuff on GTA, but having read up on the cards I think the little "angel" is trying to pull the wool over our eyes. Does what he claim sound reasonable/likely or do I just go ballistic on his arse?



    *I have set his profile so he can't log on to other consoles and killed his profile from all other machines.

    If he has Xbox-Live on his profile at your house and he sign's in with that profile at his dad's then he will have Xbox Live there. It follows the profile - not the console. The only way you'll get around it is by forcing him to use a different Xbox profile at his Dad's or the console is physically disconnected from the internet, or you turn off the ability to sign in elsewhere.

    Is that what you wanted to know?

    Want to know if he is bullshitting about the shark cards being so he can play stuff with his cousin. I have changed his password, deleted his profile from all machines, and blocked him from creating new ones. He's a good kid but can be a lying little twat when it comes to xbox.

    It's pretty much what it says in that link. It's a way of earning in-game currency quickly. You then use that in-game currency to buy stuff (cars, weapons etc.). So if he wanted to use the same stuff as his cousin (who had previous bought or unlocked items), then using shark cards would be a quick way of getting the same stuff. However, they do not specifically allow you to play online with others. The only way to do that is via xbox live.

    Cheers. Think I will get the hammer and nails ready to crucify the little bugger on the weekend. Will get him to "explain" it to me in front of his Mum so he can't squirm his way out of it. He was due to get an xbox one but lost that due to his attitude about the 360. By the weekend he may be down to just using the WII lol.

    +1 on what madmac said.

    How about if the console was only £145 though?
    Tesco have consoles on their Clubcard Boost scheme. Double up the value of your vouchers and get a £329 Xbox One half price.

    Twat! I'm not that bad. Trouble is the little sh1t will try blagging it and I wanted to make sure I knew exactly what the cards did before I asked him.

    Oh well best I go look at getting a Viffer ;)

    Having some really good fun 2player battles on Motogp14 with my mate. Moto2 is most definitely the most fun and it's funny restarting the race multiple times because we can't get past the first couple of corners without total carnage :D

    Bought the latest COD and completed it the same day (off work with chest infection) but didn't find the multiplayer much cop. Certainly nowhere near as good as Battlefield.

    Really hoping Motogp14 comes out on Xbox1 without all the glitches and also F1 2014 which is out on the 360 but not on the one yet sadly

    Got "The Crew" for the XBOne yesterday. Impressions are pretty good so far. If anyone else has it - add me and we'll "Crew-Up" for some co-op missions :)
