I hope it's not because you're considering using a dongle, as it won't work. I know it could be because your broadband is capped however.
I doubt anyone could give you a figure as they'd only be guessing anyway. Lots of different factors will play in how much data is used, Game, if you're host, etc, etc.

I have 40GB limit on Talk Talk, I dont do torrents or anything like that, probably download 100 music tracks a month max, probably 100 videos on Youtube and browsing on laptops / phones and then Xbox live, probably 20 hours a week or something and last 3 months ive used 18-22GB.
Contrast this to some people who use that in a few days

A month Kurt? You are always on You Tube when we are on CoD, unless you're being council and stealing someone else's connection

Oh that isn't XBOX Live usage, that's everything (monthly / days).
You won't go over your cap just playing XBL and browsing the internet.

Over November i used about 4 gig and i was hammering CoD for a fair few hours most nights.
That includes a bit of browsing and a bit of P2P.

Should be fine, if not you can always up your package anyway (after a few consecutive months of going over 10GB they'll write to you)
