The price of the kit depends on which one you get. Some packages come with a game or 2, and then there is a package that comes with the headset.

I think it's like $70 or something. I can't remember the exact price I paid.

It is a yearly subscription at $60 or something(I'm blanking on exact numbers).

It's really easy to setup. All pretty much idiot proof. Choosing a name is part of the signup process.

Getting connected to a game depends on the game. In halo2 for instance you go into xbox live, choose a playlist, and then it starts the game for you. Or you can make custom games if you want to play directly with your freinds.

Halo2 is by far the best Xbox live game out there right now.

i hardly play my live :-/
