XBL multiplayer gaming uses peer-to-peer networking primarily. That means one player is the host (server) and the rest of the players connect to their Xbox. There aren't many dedicated servers on the XBL network.Bane_v2
Very good sir, there is less lag on dedicated servers but once they are down...they are down, they'redown for good.
I have a 100 Mbps connection and i lag like crazy for some reason. :(hummer700Are you sure that your ethernet cable isn't 100Mbps and you have slower internet? Because your ethernet cable can only push out as much as your internet can, so just because your ethernet cable is 100Mbps, if you have 2Mbps cable/dsl, then you're only going to get at max 2Mbps.
than like ps2 for example. is that why we pay? b/c in cod3 on ps2, if 6 members enters 1 game room it starts lagging like crazy. what about on xbl?fazio93yes, xbox live servers are extremely better than ps2 servers. But apparently PS3's servers are much better than PS2's

Was that directed at me? I have Bellsouth 6.0 and live about 75 Feet away from the MDF, so I usually peak out at about 5.8MBPS with about 500k up. It's not too horribly slow =]

I have bellsouth too and I absolutely hate it really not worth the price but have no choice I cant get cable where I live. I cant believe the charge $45 for only a 6mbps download and 512k up.
Why are you getting a second 360?55centv2
That way, my brother and I can play against each other online, with our own screen.

The XBL system is set up better overall and maintained regularly. Also Xbox allows users to download updates when available, usually for free. I think that's why we pay.
I had the PS2 and played online constantly. There was almost always lag and people would glitch and cheat ALL the time because they wouldn't keep up with things and update properly.
