The Gamer Thread

My name is Brandi, and I am a girl gamer. I have questions that on other forums when I ask, I get laughed at then booted. Hopefuly everyone are adults here, and can help me and give good feed back without being rude and sarcastic.

Ok, first the Wii. I love the fact you can download old-school games, play with wireless controllers, and play on line games. Why do I have to mod my Wii just to play DVDs? My husband got the wii at a discount from a guy in his squadron who was going to the sandbox, so I thought that he just forgot the dvd remote or something. If I mod the wii, will it erase all my downloaded games? will it void the warranty?

Ok, moving to XBox....I am more of a morbid gamer...Resident evil, silent hill are my all-time favs, but I have been trying to play online with my husband on Halo 3...and I'm getting my butt kicked!!! I pride myself in being a girl who games well, but it seems I've meet my match at Halo. I like the campain, and I do well there but online play i only get 2-7 kills. sigh. Any suggestions from some seasoned Halo 3 players?
