 Don't waste your money!May 31, 2004
before you buy this cable, you'll probably want to know how this price compares with 3rd party cables... in simple terms, this so called "Xbox System Link Cable" by Microsoft, is just a Ethernet CROSSOVER Cable. Why should you spend $15.00 on a short chord like this when you can go to any computer store and get a 50ft cable for the same price? don't waste your money folks! Microsoft is just trying to trick people by just packing a cable into a neat little package! by the way, if you want to use a regular ethernet cable, you'll have to get 1 for ever xbox, plus you need a hub

 XBOX SYSTEM LINK CABLENov 24, 2004
By Seamus
This cable is used ONLY for a hookup between 2 xboxes. This means that if you want to play Halo 4 vs 4 with 2 tvs, a regular ethernet cable will not work. Only the Xbox System Link cable will work between two xboxes directly connected. However, if you hook up four xboxes, you have to use regular RJ-45 ethernet cable with a hub. That is why this cable is necessary.

You don't need this!Feb 22, 2006

If you don't like Microsoft or you think you can find a better deal on a different brand, look for "Cross-over" ethernet cables! "Patch" ethernet cables are the more common type, but they do not work for the Xbox.

This was made for X-box's onlyJul 16, 2006
I have read the other reviews for this xbox cable and most of them act like this is a rip off, and you should just buy a 50foot "cross-over" cable. THIS CABLE IS MADE FOR LINKING TWO XBOX'S TOGETHER! NOT FOR ANY OTHER USES! And using a "50 foot crossed over cable" doesn't work anyways. I bought one myself tried using it and no, it didn't work. That is because it was not specifically designed for the xbox. This cable however is made for xboxes, and will connect 2 xbox systems together so you can play certain games with up to 8 players on two different TV's, but still be fighting each other. But the ultimate recommendation would be to just get x-box live, that way there's no complaining about a system link that will only do what the package says it does(link 2 xbox systems together) and you can play more than 8 people whenever you want.
PS-i'm not a kid, i just didn't want to sign up with amazon.

Some of you might need this...Nov 08, 2004
By P. Flower
This cable is absolutely necessary for anyone who bought the "xbox halo edition". Normal crossover cables do not work on this verson of the xbox and unfortunately microsoft found a way to screw you over, but hey, I guess they're being smart..
