You mean to share the internet connection or to share the monitor?

I think he's thinking of like a LAN party...sorts of...mixing PCs and consoles.

I know you can link Playstations together, for example. But throwing PCs into mix, I've never actually heard of it. I would think the console would hafta be equipped for this specifically, or there be an adapter of sorts.

You can connect a PC monitor to your Xbox with the right adapter if that's what you mean..?

Ok I think I get what he wants to do. Like Core said he wants to have a LAN party with PC's and Xbox's playing against or with eachother in the same game. So you load Halo on your PC and your Xbox and you somehow both join the same game and play.

I have never heard of it, but I would also like to know if there is a solution.

Aren't Halo and Halo:Evolved completely different? It really doesn't sound simple... If you are think like how PS2/PC for FFXI...

I'm almost positive you cannot connect an Xbox to a PC and play Halo, or any other game for the matter
