How to play Xbox games on Xbox360 console?

Xbox connect is worthless all it takes is one person to have the most god awful connection and the entire game is screwed.

It's no different in any other game. The only way to ensure that you're not affected by someone else's internet is for a game to have dedicated servers, which not a lot of them do.

I think that what he means is anyone can join and mess up your game. Games like CoD, Halo, and Gears all filter connections in their matchmaking to match you with good connection games. Someone with 1300 ping can see a game with 35, join, and mess it up for everybody.

The only game there that doesn't get affected by that is Halo, because it doesn't allow people to join mid-game. CoD suffers horribly from this. ANYONE can get host, and as soon as someone bad does, it gets horrific. If the host even drops below a certain point, it starts screwing everyone up. Don't play Gears, so..
