It's is kinda funny how bungie claims that there is no "host" advantage, and yet the MLG and their players use it to their advantage.

I thought that the MLG Events were held on System Links..That would Eliminate host but I guess they arent. Are they on Live when they start playing?

They arn't on live when they play so host has no advantage. They are on LAN,system link so all game info doesn't go to the host than to its destination. It just goes to its destination which makes the game fair no matter what distance you are at, all shots register at long range and just everything works on lan.

Well technically there would still be an advantage for the host box. The host box would have 0 latency while the other box(s) would have 12-15ms on a lan. Compared to 50-100ms for online play (maybe higher for xbox live) you actually see a big difference and advantage for the host. So spouting off about host advantage on a lan is laughable, but who knows maybe at that high level of competition a 12ms advantage is noticeable.

ow well best of luck to them FB rapes and there no "host" or "host boxes" in lans gezz

you were killed by the Y button

I am glad that Bungie has taken notice enough to post information on MLG's events and who are the top players. It can only serve to benefit both parties (MLG and Bungie) as further advertising of the game and how wide spread video-gaming in general has become. Good luck on Halo 3 Bungie and I am sure that after its release, we will all breathe a sigh of relief. Side note: if you feel that it is necessary to release the game on Nov 9th again (2 was released on my 25th BD) it will mark yet another momentous occasion, oh yeah and the game release to.

I played a couple of FB guys and I think that Saiyan is better than OGRE 1... maybe he was just having a better game but Saiyan owned that FFA. I felt good though because I came in 5th!! Out of 6!!!

This has nothing to do with the topic, but if you cant tell the difference between host and off host on lan, then you my friend are the nub.

I have the liability to say that Saiyan is NOT better than Ogre 1. I have played both in FFA's and Ogre 1 had more creativity and a better BR than Ogre 1.

Did anyone know that XiT removed Zyos from their team and replaced him with Sir Samurai? In my opinion this is a bad move, i mean I"M better than sir samurai!
