    Yes you can use XBMC to play online but this is xlink Kai also. Instead of using the PC program all you do is configure xlink on your PC to open the engine only and the rest is done from your XBMC.

    There is instructions on how to set it up here.

    NO, they are saying to use X-Link, because the program inside your XBMC is X-Link... So for you to not use a computer to connect your xbox to an online gaming service, you should use X-Link... Just configure xlink on your PC to open the engine only and the rest is done from your XBMC. For more detailed instructions follow the link that [bold]ozy[/bold] left...
