Its just more obvious in Halo2.

I lag in EVERY game i play but maybe its worse in Halo i dunno.

In Rainbow Six Vegas my connection is ALWAYS red but i dont see TOO much lag.

On Halo im Yellow/Green sometimes red but it lags a LOT.

I find that my connection is only bad while in BTB. Otherwise there is no lag.

if my halo ever lags it normaly down to that my computer is on, and something is "taking the connection"...such as limewire (or any other P2P)...msn also...

halo,gears,rainbow 6, and battlefront 2 lag because they r big online games the more people the more servers which means more lag

*Sigh*

If you have played Star Wars Battlefront 2 online and it is the most laggy game out there then why do you make the claims.

"Halo 2 lag while other games don't"

AND

"Halo 2 is the only game I lag on"

Depends where you live ? internet speed has nothing to do with a good connection. If anything sometimes it can be too good.

I live in england and recently upgraded from 4mb to 20mb broadband with download and upload speeds greater than yours above and i found my games to be red bar or 2 bar yellow every game ( i even made a post about it somewhere complaining ). I have since went back down to 4mb and my games are back to normal. Im sure it happens in every game online and everyone outside the US and even some inside experience problems.

I know saints of row, GRAW and RSV are laggy games, last time i checked.
