the host of the game will always have a slight advantage as your the only one not likely to lag. Most of the games have latencie in mind when the online multiplayers are made so the can account for it to a certain extent.
It's an amazing feat tho when you think that in a millisecond you can press a button on your xbox and almost instantly that information has been processed by the xbox, sent to america usual(i think thats where the main servers for halo are anyway), sent back to you, then processed again by your xbox and displayed on the screen. I think the only way there will ever get rid of lag is when we all have optiacal fibre internet.

Now I have heard that too.

Whatever it is it's annoying laying waste to a bad guy with an M60 then him popping you with a single shot of his silenced pistol and then what I imagine is standing over my body guffawing like a maniac at my rubbishness!

The map pack is out today! The levels all look pretty good, i've been getting a bit bored of the same old maps. So hopefully these will make it interesting again.

I've read on various forums that this is the best deal on xbox live points if anyone is thinking of buying the new maps.

Tesco.com - Unexpected error occured

Edit: yep the link does work.

Just a quick question.

While replaying a previous mission i collected 2 pieces of enemy intelligence and put my total up to 16.
This should have unlocked an achievement but i was a prize tit and had forgotten i had activated the clusterbomb cheat. (i just wanted to see the pretty explosions.)
As you may know you can't get achievements when cheats are active.

Am i completely fucked with regards to getting this achievement?
