The weirdest thing happened today. I had a xbox and a xbox 360, connected via LAN cable, both running a copy of Halo: Combat Evolved. I was on the 360, and my brother on the xbox.

We start up a game of slayer on Blood Gulch, just to mess around. I was getting on top of the level and he was cruising around on the ghost. I get up top and look down and I notice he is running around (as in on foot) then I trun and look at the other TV, the one running the xbox, and he is on a ghost. I go down, and tell my brother to stop moving, the guy on foot (same colour armour, and same name as my brother) stops at the same time. Then I tell my brother to meet me at the base, he says he is there. I double check, and he is no where to be seen on my xbox (360) but looking at the other TV, he should be right in front of me. He aslo dosent see me on his TV, but rather a clone of myself, the same as I see it on my TV.

If I kill the clone, I get a point. I can line in up and kill my brother, the one I cant see.

There is a lot I can say on this, but I should stop. Anyone know what this is all about? I also restarted everything, and it still happens.

Is this a BC problem or something else?

Check us out for Halo movies!

Lol, that's interesting. Was he running as fast as the Ghost moves?

It's probably a compatibility error. A biggin'. ;)

No not as fast as the ghost moves, just normal.

Another funny thing, I was out of rockets, but my clone (the guy my brother saw on his TV) would fire a rocket evey time I pulled the trigger, he would even reload.

We also managed to get the clone into a warthog, that was awesome.

that's weird, but kinda cool. I can't play Halo multiplayer on my 360 for some reason. Every time me and my brother try to start playing, it freezes. :(

Ooh. Maybe for some reason, it has something to do with a patch? Meaning, I don't have the patch-- and everything seems to be in check. I was just testing my 360 out with another system today as well.

Yeah, I took my copy of Halo: CE, to a friends house, and every time I'd go to start multiplayer (on the his 360) it would freeze. Thats odd, perhaps I should go pick up another copy, what a new one should be like 10 bucks.
