Actually I have 7 friends over right now. How do you hook up the 2 xboxes- We tried using an ethernet cable to hook it up. We just resorted to a 2v2 and having others talk and such,

ive played many many system link games. the most insane one was 16 players, free for all, hange em high, rockets only. also, 16 players, 8v8, ctf, blood gulch.
on friday, november 12, my friend is hosting a LAN party, and hes alrdy got 16 people invited. we just need to wait fer halo2, set up the TV's and xboxes, make our profiles, and kick some ass in halo2.

dont waste your money on a "system link cable". just go to radio shack or a computer store and get a cat5 crossover cable. or if youre like me, just make one. I made a 15' for same room games and a 50' for different room team games. Regular ethernet (or straight-thru) cables wont work.

LAN (system link) games are great fun tho. There was a guy in the Honors dorm that used to throw lan parties all the time we would have 16 player games..but he got busted for weed. sucks for him and us.
