Ok, I'm sure some of you that know a lot about networking already are aware of this. But for those of you who don't know, it you want to link 2 Xboxes (and no more) together, all you need is to go to your local computer store and ask for a 10/100 Crossover ethernet cable. if you want 3 or more Xboxes linked you'll need standard cables and a hub. However if you don't want to pay an increased price for the crossover cable (they jack up the prices on crossover cables for some reason) there are instructions on the net about how one can reletively easily convert a standard cable to a crossover. Most importantly, there is no difference between a normal crossover and the cables they sell. Plus Microsoft's link cable cost $10 for 5ft. I bought my cable for $13 and its 75ft. This way I don't have to move TVs to play. But in anycase, playing with the link cable is really cool... Anyone know if its possible to play coop story play with two TVs?
