Dave C Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 I haven't tried it yet but it sounds good. In addition to letting you see if your friends are playing online, you can see additional information about each of your gamer friends. What games do they play? When did they last play Project Gotham Racing 2? What time is it wherever your friends are located (Optional)? What is their real name, email address, instant messenger address, website/blog address (Optional)? What time does soandso gamer usually play? http://www.xboxfriends.com/xboxfriends.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Sounds cool, but I wonder if I could just wait for a Microsoft offering as opposed to installing a new piece of software. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Just downloaded and installed this this morning. Very cool little tool. Makes it more convenient than logging into your friends list via the Xbox webpage. This'll stay on my computer until MS comes up with their Messenger integrated Xbox Live tool.

Graeme Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 It's alright, but it doesn't seem to update the list properly unless you're logged into the XBox Live website, which pretty much defeats the purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 doesn't seem to update the list properly unless you're logged into the XBox Live website I was able to keep mine working fine as long as "Always log me in" or "Keep me logged" in was checked off when I logged onto the Xbox site using my Passport.

Graeme Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 It seems to update fine when the program starts. In the new version the icon in the tray would always be green indicating that it was "connected", however the list would never change, and when I logged into XBL, sure enough there were people online that were not showing in XBL Friends, even after many manual updates.
