I have two Halo 2 loving sons, and we would like to all have separate tags. We would all like to play in the ranked games. We do not want to play in the training ground games as guests all of the time. How do I do this? I have not found anything on this on the Xbox site or the Bungie site.

My wife recently decided she wanted to play, here's what i did.

I had to create an entirely new Gammer Tagf or her, which meant going through the whole process of Name, Address, Credit Card number and the whole bit. So technically I have 2 seperate accounts with 2 seperate charges. My understanding is since bungie logs every little detail, you have to do it this way...i used a 2 month free script for her to make sure she's gonna actually stick to it.

if there's any other way that won't cost me twice, then i'd love to know it too.

yea the only way to do this would be to create entirly new accounts, which is what my brother and I do.

If you own more than one xbox live game, use those free 2 month trial thingys, thats what we did. I know halo 2 had one of those in it.

I have four 6 month LIVE cards that came with the communicators that I got the boys for Christmas, it sound like I could use those.

You could use the cards to initially create the account. Once the two months is up you can't use another card unless you want to create another new account and start your stats all over again.

You can actually have up to 8 accounts stored on one xbox.
