Thinking about shelling out the dough for xbox live. Considering MKD is coming out along with many other good online Xbox games this fall. Some questions:

Is it worth it?

After you hook up the crossover cable, how does your PC recognize the xbox ... what else do you have o do to set it up?

I know PS2 is better, but I got a box, not by choice lol. Any help with this would be appreciated.
