BF2 MC has some really nice graphics and it has 24 players. I think 24-32 would work fine. And no, they wouldnt have to tone down any graphics. Its just a simple matter of reproducing the same model multiple times. It really isnt that big of a drain on the 360.
Now about lag. If bungie decides to go with some dedicated servers for thier MM, then we might not have to worry too much about lag, or the host advantage. Lag is always a factor in gaming, and it wont go away. Halo 2 hardly lags like hell. Halo PC lags like hell. Halo 2 only lags alot for a console, and BF2:MC for original XB had some pretty bad lag.
Halo 3 should have more than 16 players because it would not only add to the online play, but allow for larger maps and more expansive MP battles.
