Rating: - YOU DONT NEED THIS CABLE TO PLAY SYSTEM LINK
you honestly dont need this cable to play system link. All you need is a CROSSOVER rj-45 ethernet cable. I got mine today and I tried it out with my friends and it worked fine. You can find these cables a lot cheaper than the XBOX brand one. So again you just need to ger any regular Crossover cable and u cant use your regualr everyday ethernet cable because it won't work.

You're wating for Xbox live, what are you going to do in the mean time. You could just wait or you could get the system link cable. I know it's not as good as Xbox live but it's still similar. We have the over four-player-aspect. Also say you were playing two player slayer on Halo 2, you wouldn't have the advantege of looking on their half of the screen.
Yeh, that's all great but what about the downers. You have to both have a copy of the game, but that's not that bad. So all together it's not the best thing ever but it is recommended.
Rating: - Just a over hyped cross-over cable.
This looks like a pre-packaged cross-over cable (will not work with some hubs or switches). Also if you want to use something like this instead of XBox live, see XBConnect.com.

a 5 minute class from a radioshack employee lets you make your own "cat5" cable which is what your xbox uses. Its basically a slightly larger phone line and plug. The trick is in knowing the correct colorcoded order of the eight wires protected within the outer insulation when fitting on the plug. You will need to buy a special crimping tool which should also be able to crimp phone lines not that you'll need it. Even with the tool, plugs, and cable you will pay less, especially if you plan to link more than two xboxs.
