Can't System Link

do I have to buy a adapter to play on system link?

And I found the answer.....I had the game installed on my HD and he did not....not sure why they both either have to be or neither have to be but thats the way it is for now.

what is an xbox live ambassador?

(I'm new to xbox)

Ok, from the top:

We have a regular games night at our place & recently a friend suggested he might start bringing around his 360-S have so we can system link them for more players, we ourselves are looking at buying a 2nd just so we can have more players when he can't make
it. I want know if you can access profiles from one console on the other consoles in a system link so we don't have to have most of the profiles on USB flash drive. A few points to consider;

XBL Gold is out of the question because

A) two-thirds of the 20+ profiles are friends who don't normally game or don't have an XBox (they are PS3 or Wii gamers) & I can't justify dropping $1,600 or more to make it possible to copy them on to each console.

B) we don't have the net on & I don't have the money right at the moment to fix my place up to get the net connected (looking likely to be over $700 to do that).

USB flash drives, a painful solution... I will have to either

A) buy a bulk supply of flash drives so each profile can be stored on a separate USB.

B) move half of the profiles to my friends 360 for the night.

If you dont have internet, you cant play System Link. (You dont need be able to access Xbox LIVE or Xbox.com, but just locally.)

PRO-TIP: Use ethernet cables, if you dont you will need to keep the ping under 30. If you have higher ping that 30, then the xbox wont connect because of security things.

You should be able to system link any Xbox 360 to another Xbox 360.
