V Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Been stuck with my trusty N64 as i havent really had the urge as i did to move towards a PS2 or Xbox. Just been counting my money jar and found that i've a few hundred sitting in there so i thought i'd buy one and be in-keeping with my mates. One thing i cant stand is the small multi-player screens. THE QUESTION: If i get another xbox & TV + a link cable can you multi-play with 2 players on their own TV and if there's 4 of you have a split screen each? I tried to find a gizmo that done this (video wall?) years ago for my N64 but with no joy. This would also be good for shoot-em-ups without a map displayed.

Red Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 yes mate- with 2x xbox, 2x tv, 2xgame, 1x link cable, you can do exactly that. I have had hours of fun beating my mates at Halo 2. a good investment I would say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyJawa Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Bear in mind an Xbox link cable is simply a ethernet cat 5 crossover cable, cost is peanuts against some branded rubbish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
