what do I need to System link 2 XBOXes? Will a standard Ethernet cable work, or do I have to go out and buy the special XBOX branded link cable

Yeah the standard ethernet cable will work. If you want to hook 3 or more together just plug them all into your hub. I think that xbox one that they sell is just a way to get money.:wink:Originally posted by jhsu

You require a crossover cable not just a ethernet cable. In order to use ethernet cables you need to connect them through a hub/switch/router. And no, brand won't matter.

oh, well i had never tried directly connecting them, so i just thought it'd work. But i know it works when you plug them into a hub. Good fun til your friend looks around when your on the other team and screen cheats! He brings his box over and we play live like that, good times. until he dropped my tv while getting it out.

As far as I know, RS3 only allows one player per Xbox to play. So if you want some 4 player action you need 4 xboxs. Ghost recon allows two per Xbox.Originally posted by jhsu
