I've read somewhere (another forum, i dunno) that XBConnect is superior to Xbox LIVE in the sense that it's just as effective, and it's free.
Now, my question is - What is the difference between the two, in interface and in functions?
Are LIVE games playable over XBConnect? I've also heard that HALO was playable over XBConnect. I thought it wasn't LIVE compatible, so how can you play online with XBC?
I've only played one game o live - Mechassault - and wondered how XBC works, and if it's got the headset compatibility and like Optimatch and stuff.
Anyone wanna help me out that knows their stuff?
XBConnect isnt "LIVE"... Its a program that you download that fools your Xbox into thinking you are hooked to other Xboxes through System Link, but you are really hooked to your router...
You need:
Xbox hooked to router
PC hooked to router
XBConnect on your PC
And if you want to play Halo for example. You have to play System Link, and you can play online that way. But its VERY laggy
