Repost? I searched, didn't see it. Looks sweet. Anyone try this out?

XBConnect

its not the same as the official Xbox Live software that microsoft is thinking about resleasing later.. this looks really cool though.

i had heard of something like this for playing HALO online before-- its cool to see that all those others games work also. Thanks for the link, i'll give this a try later.

I use it occasionally, along with XBox Network (another program similar to XBConnect)

Both work better than the GameSpy Arcade Tunnel Software, but XBox Network works the best. I can't remember what the URL for it is, but do a search and you should come up with it. XBox Network uses better compression of the raw packets then XBConnect does...

Neither work that well on my 1.5Mbit/192Kbps connection though unfortunately. (You need a pretty high upstream with a low latency to be able to play as if it were true system link).

Overall though its pretty good, I can play 1-on-1 with my friend late at night when latency is lower and its a lot of fun.
