About
.
OzBoxLive.com started way back in JULY 2007 in Melbourne, Australia with a focus on a site for the Australian XBOX 360 consumer. The Podcast – OzBoxLive Radio – gets its name from the Xbox Live service and for the fact that we are the ONLY podcast in the world to actually use Xbox Live to help produce the show. As all the Interviews are actually recorded via Xbox Live’s Voice Chat facility. We are currently in our fourth season and release the show every two weeks.
.
Each episode runs for under one hour and features the latest News, Reviews, Interviews, Tips and Group Discussions. We give away copies of the new Xbox 360 Magazine… “Australian 360” along with Halo 3 Bags, Mass Effect Making of DVD’s, Xbox 360 Lanyards, Gears of Wars Cog Tags and many other goodies.
.
We also have our own OzBoxLive Game Nights (Community Playdate) where we organize with the support of Microsoft Australia all Australian Xbox 360 GOLD members to meet up on a Friday night every month at 8pm to play either an Xbox 360, Xbox Live Arcade and even Xbox Original game. The main purpose is to have a fun night with fellow Aussies, add more members to your Friend’s List as well as win some prizes and chat with the OzBoxLive team.
.
Other than that we have recorded one episode of “OzBoxLive TV” when Microsoft invited us to Sydney a week before the release of Halo 3. We are going to have some more Video in the near future but our main focus is the audio ones.
.
