Free Xbox Live?

Thursday, February 23rd, 2006

For anyone out there who likes playing console games online, but hates to pay for the use of the console manufacturer’s servers, this might just be the thing for you!

I just came across a very interesting website, Nullriver Software, which had a application available for download called Amaryllis. This allows anyone with a game system physically capable of online play to play games online using the Amaryllis server. No, you cannot play with people on Xbox Live and the others as they are entirely different servers, but this is pretty darned neat!

I don’t have the ability to test this, so if someone does, please let me know how it works out.
