Hey, i was looking to buy X-Box Connect...i just need to know a little about it...

Where can you buy it?
How much is it?
How many people actually play it?(Does it take a while just to find a match)

Also, suggestions if i should get it or not.

There is no need to buy it, there is a free version.

http://www.XbConnect.com There is a free version in the downloads section or a more advanced version with extra features lifetime purchase with autoupdates for 15$. Halo 2 has somewhere around 100-200- rooms consistantly open so finding a game isn't too bad. Halo 1 takes a little more time but if your on at the right times its not bad either.

You can download it for free at http://www.xbconnect.com, there is hardly ever a shortage of rooms to join but if you want to host it may take a couple minutes for people to join your room. If you have trouble setting it up, PM me on bungie or try going to http://www.xbconnect.com/help

the site will tell you everything you need to know to get playing


as far as paying goes...the free version is very laggy depending on the rooms you join

the paying version is much better but i wouldn't recomend buying it unless you REALLY are serious about playing halo online A LOT

its not hard to set up, at all, XBC takes may be 2 min to download, then at most 10 min to set up, you dont need to be "serious" on XBC, in fact, many people on XBC are beginners

You can have my gun when you pry it from my paranoid, mentally disturbed, physically-abusive, cold, dead hand

I tried XBConnect a few times

I found that the people were most annoying and rudest people on earth,and yes I play on XBOX LIVE.
