Can you connect an XBox to a LAN connection if you don't have XBox live? I mean, I know I won't get to play any games, but just to get any updates...

One tag for all games - that's why you can't change it. It also means if you come across some prick, he can't just sign off, change his name and come back into your game to **** you off some more. (I've had it happen a couple of times on pc games)

Some games do allow you to change your ingame name, but adding them to your friends list still just adds their gamertag.

And yes, spyder has already been taken (just thought I might as well check)

The update was only to add more languages to the live signup process, and add 480p support to the dashboard. There is nothing else that needs to be updated, until the new dashboard (v2) is released, but it is integrated with live, so would be pointless without it.

Edit: if you mean to get updates from other games - you can only update games on xbox live, and you can only get content from live. You can't transfer files unless you use a memory card, and even then, content files are either too large to fit, or are disabled from being copied over.

Probably, but, like I said, the v2 dash is only to integrate xbox live with the console more, ie being online when you're not in a game, and having chat lobbies etc...

You wouldn't gain anything from getting the newer version, other than a lot of features you can't use :p
