Second: Just WHAT were they thinking; putting those mini DVD drives in those things? Why not put a full blooded DVD with movie playback in the unit?

PS-2 and X-Box still require a "kit" to get online through your broadband.

The mini-CD thingy was an attempt to thwart piracy. Whether it was effective or the GC just sucked too bad to be worth pirates' time is anyone's guess, but I haven't seen any GC piracy going around.

The Xbox does not require a kit to get online, only a subscription; you can get it out of the box and hook it up to your DSL modem/router. The Xbox Live Kit you're thinking of only enhances the online experience by providing a headset with mic.

Re: Not just broadband

There are also several free programs that run on a pc networked with the xbox that will allow you to play multiplayer over the net. No need for xbox live.
