When you sign up choose either USA or UK and complete the address details with your valid details. When asked for a postcode choose either 90210 (USA) or E162SP (UK) or any other valid postcode.

Then head on over to http://www.evogames.co.za or http://www.mspoints.co.za and buy a Xbox 360 subscription and redeem that code.

DO NOT USE YOUR LOCAL CREDIT CARD

The cost varies depending on how long the membership is but you are looking in the region of between R170 and R370

Open a gmail account. Use that gmail account to sign up for a Windows Live ID, but during registration say that your country is USA. Pick any old city, and look up a valid ZIP code for that city. Now on your XBOX say Join Live and use that email address. There you go: you’re on XBOX Live.
Now, to get point so you can buy games is a bit more tricky:
Go to mspoints.co.za. Buy a USA points card. I’ve done this… it’s not a scam. You pay by EFT, not CC so quite safe. They email you a scan of the points card with a unique code. On the XBOX, buy MS points and select redeem card. Enter the number. I think they want your address for some reason: I just googled a valid address in New York (where I “stay”) and that was it. I bought Avatar Golf… pretty cool.
Now if only SA people could publish XNA games and make some extra cash, all would be good.

Please can someone explain to me how to connect to
Xbox live if SA doesn’t have the facility?
Do you have to give an overseas address? How do you pay for this?

Doh! I really ought to pay attention to the warning labels on the cough syrup that advise against operating heavy machinery.

Yes, I did indeed mean the 360 forum.
