48 hour trials, where do those come from?

I remember way back when most games came with a 1 month trial card in the case, and I had a big stack of em.

They never really did any good becuz a person could only use 1 and never again cuz then you weren't a trial user after you've already tried Live.

Personally I didn't think that was right cuz I think many people were probably under the impression they were getting free Live thus convincing them to buy more games.

Plus back then you needed a credit card number so that ruled out a lot of people from being able to even sign up.

I think there should be some rules regarding things like this. All these few post wonders popping in just for the give a ways. Should either be a minimum post count or minimum 1 year mem.

You can practically get your self unlimited 48 hour codes if your willing to spend 5-10 mins doing so.

1) Download the Monster Hunter Frontier App (or if you have a Japanese profile find it on the dashboard and go to #3)

2) Inject in to your USB memory stick

3) Load the Monster Hunter Frontier App from the dashboard

4) Enter the captcha, if you cant read Japanese use this guide to translate the symbols in to numbers: http://img534.images...82/captchai.jpg

5) Enter the translated numbers you got with the onscreen keyboard e.g. 12345

6) You'll see "Xbox LIVE 48" and that's the code you will use to have Xbox LIVE access for 48 hours.

7) Redeem the code and you're good to go

You can do this once per profile, however you can just create another silver account and get another code to use on your main profile.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
