It`s a cable, what can be said about it?
Only effective if you have a permanent setup and regular team matches.
The Xbox System Link Cable is the most over extravagant feature on xbox -
Unlikely that gamers are unfamiliar but: system link cables allow you to link two Xbox consoles together, using two separate TV's and two copies of the same game(or more). You'll also require extra controllers for each player (up to 8 using two consoles). Even more players can join if you purchase a hub, providing game titles support this.
I'm glad another reviewer made good suggestions for this one. £15 is excessive for this piece of kit (which you're only likely to use, realistically, once or twice). The whole System link isn't any good unless you've got more than 3 players. Also, there aren't many titles which incorporate co-operative play. If you're looking for the multiplayer experience, after the pub or at a party, it's better to go online than hosting the equivalent of a nuclear power-station. I found the cable twitchy at times but reliable. One of the best titles to play using system link is, surprisingly, Rainbow Six 3 or any racing game which has support. All in all, a waste of money - for those into team match-play with a permanent setup only. If you're looking into buying a cable just for experimentation, don't bother.
