Please Bungie, redeem yourself w/ Reach.
Halo 2 and 3 both stink out loud.
In the immortal words of Mr Horse: Halo 2? No sir, didn't like it.

There is an xbox SDK available and if they released the source *we* could add netplay to it and improve the netcode, just not using XBL.
I'm probably dreaming...

I just want Halo CE playable over the net (and XBC doesn't cut it unfortunately)

Who here thinks they should make a uber powerful Grunt Plasma Rifle thats shoots out naked flaming Chuck Norrises?

Xlink kai is less laggy than XBC but no one plays halo on the tunnel programs anymore sadly =(

Yep, bought it when it first came out. Net code is abysmal. Custom Edition's netcode is better but no one plays it.
I've also used XBC and xlink in the past.

Having the source code would allow programmers like me to keep it alive. I'd gladly work on it.
