Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games
Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in
video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have
an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures”
while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered
vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation,
confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of
consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking
nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above
symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these
seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the
following precautions: Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a
well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a
doctor before playing.
ESRB Game Ratings
The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide
consumers, especially parents, with concise, impartial guidance about the ageappropriateness and content of computer and video games. This information can
help consumers make informed purchase decisions about which games they deem
suitable for their children and families.
ESRB ratings have two equal parts:
•
Rating Symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game. These symbols
appear on the front of virtually every game box available for retail sale or
rental in the United States and Canada.
•
Content Descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a
particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern. The descriptors appear
on the back of the box next to the rating symbol.

Getting Started
How to Sync Your Mic
You’re almost ready to start on the path to stardom! But first
you’ve got to sync the Xbox 360® Wireless Microphone to your
Xbox 360 console.
First, press and hold the mic power button for about one second
to turn on the mic. The lights will flash briefly.
Next, with the mic on, press and hold the mic power button for
about five seconds until the lights flash green in rapid bursts. Then
press and release the connect button on your console (the small
button near the memory unit slots). Once the connection is made,
the mic lights flash blue and then stop.
You only need to sync the microphone to a particular console
once. It will resync when you turn on the mic and console.
For additional information, please see the hardware manual
included with your Xbox 360 Wireless Microphone.
Rock the Mic
Go beyond simply singing along. With
the motion-sensitive Xbox 360 Wireless
Microphone and Lips™ you’ve got
everything you need to put on a
stellar performance. All you’ve got
to do is rock the mic to...
• Join a song in progress.
• Mimic your avatar’s moves and
earn bonus points.
• Use noise makers during a song.
• Play party games, interact with
virtual music videos, and more!
