Most if not all xbox 360 games are coded so only other xbox 360's can connect and play them. It doesn't matter that you have the same "titled" game on PC, it isn't the same. You used to be able to do this type of gaming between a dreamcast console and PC, but I'm not aware of anything like that anymore.
A mediocre keyboard and mouse user would slaughter most good x360/ps3 controller users. lopaka ________________________________ From: Joshua MacCraw <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, July 11, 2011 6:01:27 PM Subject: Re: [H] Xbox & LAN gaming no specific xbox experience here. I'd say there are 1 of 2 possibilities: 1. can't be done because the host ports needed are the same for both xbox is behind the commons ip address. 2. either upnp needs to be enabled, or custom rules for port forwarding have to be setup pointing to the ip address of the hosting xbox. I'd say there must be a fact on how to do this somewhere google is your friend.
