I can get to 5 no problem.. but getting to 6 is beyond me right now. Maybe after I get some sleep

Hmm. Interesting that the name is scrambled: not xbox360 but 063xobx.
I'd say that that probably means it's not official -- the "real" xbox360 domain names have most likely all been registered by Microsoft.
The site is registered through GoDaddy to Depthware, administrative contact one Nathan Carr.
The Depthware site doesn't seem to have much on it.
In other words, it's not official, but the puzzles may still be fun.

Well we're supposed to pick out what's not from
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Halo
the only things I know for sure are:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
BFG (that's from Unreal)
I believe "Crazy King" isn't right either
I also don't remember "The Jackals" either.
Sadly, I'm stumped beyond this. I've tried many combinations, and don't get it. But I also realize the title is "V" do not belong or something, so we're looking for 5 incongruent items.

Have you noticed, that all other levels where in the directory of the same name as the level itself, but this one is in the directory "j ollya steroid". The first page is named "j ellya pples".
The Question is J.A.?
And you found out J. Allard. His first name is James (taken from this article )
I don't know, if this is of any help?!

Dorkmaster, where did you find that Halo clue? I think I missed this one.

actually:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
BFG is from DooM
Crazy King is a Halo/Halo2 KotH gametype in which the hill moves every minute or so.
Jackals are a Covenant enemy from Halo/Halo2

I haven't found anything related to Halo up to level 5. Is this in level 6 or after? And if so, would you post a hit about the user/pass in level 5?

Honestly, the first time I somehow bypassed this the first time.
I never had to do the password thing before.
Anyway, I dunno how to crack it.

Oooh, I found this one last night. Finally something that NZ can take part in
For the password one:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Notice the pic is backwards? The password is 'J' but you'll have to work out the username yourself
Halo words that dont belong:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Summit Strike, Major Jones, BFG, Zorga and The Column of Doom
edit - eep, put one of the wrong ones in

ok, I'm on lvl 10... what the hell is the answer?(or a clue to how to get it) I don't really want to have to try each and every one of those links. (although I will if no help is forthcoming)

In level 7 I'd suppose:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The URL says something about the gamertag. I would think it refers to J Allard's gamertag, only I don't know where to put it...

I'll gladly provide assistance on 10 if you can help me on 9.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Best I can figure is it's a "Select" button somewhere in the viz menu.
I don't have a 360 or have access to one I can turn off and on.
Seems I'm always tagging along somewhere behind you on these.
