Is it possible to view internet pages on an xbox?
I would like to do it in my son's bedroom if possible.
What would I need, and is there any 'parent guard' possible?

Microsoft decided to restrict internet access.
You can go online with the PS3 although it isn't really an easy or fun experience.0 -

Well .. it isn't that they want to charge for the iPlayer but they want people to have an xBox gold subscription. And as that goes against the charter of the BBC it is the BBC that wont allow it.0 -
Yes indeed there is away around it, I haven't tried it myself but heard it does work it plays 40d and 5 player amongst others
