Well all we can do is wait and see and hope, but don't waste to much hope on it. It is a product of EA and traditionally EA is not too generous with the feature. The only 2 games for Xbox I can think of are the 2 TimeSplitters games and neither have headset capabilities. GoldenEye might be EA also, but I'm sure there is no voice in that either.
I really hate EA, but BF2 is one helluva good game. There are so many features and so many aspects to the game. |

I doubt it will be system link...I don't think you could even host your own game in the live-only demo.. It made you connect to their servers. |

yeah that sucks, also since ea is going to be publishing half-life 2 they might not be a system link for that, or not even multiplayer |

if u have bf2 for pc theres no point in getting MC for xbox, the visual quality difference is too great, the PC version is far more superb. |

Half-Life (PC) is very much a multiplayer game. Its had soooo many mods done for it, used to play it non stop few years back (counter-strike, Firearms etc).
Now if your talking about half-life 2 (Xbox) then from what i have read, it has no multiplayer. |

did the first half-life have multiplayer? i never played it on any of the systems... i remember it came out on either xbox or ps2. if the first one did or didn't then you could theoretically believe the same would be for the second |
