My friend has organized LAN parties every Thursday night. I went last week, I'll go tomorrow too. Playing Halo CE with 10+ friends was SO awesome. It was so much funner than playing H3 on xbox live. Anybody else LAN much?

LAN stands for "Local Area Network." Basically setting up a hub with ethernet connecting 2+ xbox consoles together. It makes for a great party.

Awesome, I just hosted one for a college group here on campus. We easily hit the 16 player mark and had a blast. Glad to hear of other people enjoying Halo 1 LAN.

Owners of the Katana: A place for those who have a Katana or over 1000GS in Halo 3.

Somewhere out there... in an alternate reality... Marty decided to stay in the ad jingle business, bringing about an age of amazingly orchestrated Pampers commercials.

I am soooooo jealous! I play little LAN games, with like 5 other people, but it's nothing like playing a big game. With enough effort, I guess I could set up a big game.

I live in (gasp) West Monroe, Louisiana but I go to college in Ruston, Louisiana. I'm connected with a lot of die hard Halo 1 players. I have an image, although we still had about 8 controllers to plug up... We also had a seperate room with Xbox 360s running Halo 1, we almost filled that 16 player game too.

Every month for me and my band of inept comrades - the LAN equipment keeps my garage occupied whilst my 2006 Mustang sits in the rain ! haha !

Why would you leave your Mustang in the rain? You should at least get a cover for it.
