i think bungie/MS should seriously look into the possibility of halo reach servers. the current p2p system relies hugely on whether the host has a good internet connection. if there were servers, your connection would be as good as your actual internet connection, rather than your host's connection. a whole game wouldn't be ruined by one laggy player.
If halo reach has servers there's also a very real possibility of big 16v16 games (without lag). ultimately, servers would make the game fairer and more enjoyable over xbox live. Servers is the way to go.
edit to post above:
by the same token, if a player host lives far away in the current system, there is a lot of lag anyway. i live in australia, i should know. There wouldn't need to be a huge amount of servers; you'd just have to cater for the places where most people play.
so, you'd have servers in the US/canada region, a few for the UK, some more for the rest of europe, one or two for australia/new zealand, and one or two for asia. from here, microsoft can do what EA does and decide what's best by adding servers in places where the game is more popular than expected.
