256/64 Good Enough For Xlink?
« on: January 13, 2004, 08:34:00 AM »

Xlink looks fantastic, but i'm not sure if my connection (256/64) is up to scratch.

How would performance be for me?
would I need to play against local users?
and is it possible to organise and make a game against local friends?

thanks

I think i'll give Xlink a go anyway, maybe the mighty Deathrow will work ok.

aaah bummer, Halo is the game I really want to play online.

the amount of hours i've put into multiplayer over LAN at my mates house is stupid  laugh.gif

dont take my word as gospel. I mean, you may be able to play just fine, with a few hiccups, i just want you to know tho, that halo uses the most bandwidth of all the games (same with brute force, and possibly DTM)
