Default Help with Xbox live for Xbox n00b :oh:

I just bought an Xbox360 h:

Anyways, my friend (he has an Xbox original) and I are trying to get Xbox live accounts to play Halo 2 online. My friend insists that the Xbox live website is specific to the Xbox 360.

So what I want to know is, is the Xbox Live account specific to the Xbox or Xbox 360? I'm pretty sure it's not, but I'd figure I ask people who know h:

the website is not 360 specific.

but if you activate your gamertag on a 360, you can't use it on an original xbox. if you activate it on an original xbox, you can transfer it to the 360 and use it on both.

But if I activate the gamertag on their website, than it does work with the original Xbox?

oh, i see what you're saying. do you want to play with your GT on the original? just go through each of your own boxes instead of the website and then you won't have to worry about it.

but looking on the website, it looks like it's 360 only.
