Xbox 360 LAN party (filmed in 2016)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- A couple of old friends connect their Xbox 360’s to an Ethernet Switch for a LAN party in November 2016. Games played are: Halo 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops and the original Left 4 Dead.
- Note on COVID: -----------------------
This video was filmed in November 2016,
DO NOT throw a LAN party right now.
With COVID, now is a truly terrible to time to throw a LAN party. The LAN party has all the essential ingredients for COVID spread.
However I thought this video which I have left on my hard-drive for years, saving it for a time like this- might be fun to distract you for a few minutes and give you an idea for something to try out once COVID has settled down.

- Description -----------------------
We’ve talked a lot on this channel about all the wonderous things you can do with an Xbox 360. But one feature that we are yet to discuss is it’s System Link capability which makes it a truly fantastic device for LAN parties.
But you might be asking yourself, what is a LAN party?
Well hopefully this video will show you and demonstrate how a couple of cheap, old Xbox 360’s can be easily connected together to make for hours of gaming fun with no need for the internet or an Xbox Live subscription.
If you want to try this (after COVID has calmed down)
You'll need one of these per person:
- Xbox 360 Console
- Power Cord / Power Supply
- One copy of each game per person
- HDMI or AV Cable
- Monitor or TV with HDMI, Component or Composite video input
- Ethernet Cable
- Router or Ethernet Switch
Optional:
- Tea or a Beer if that's more your thing
(ensure you check all the Xbox's are running the same system and game firmware)
-----------------------
Man seeing your video after such a long time made me smile.
I feel that, I miss green ham
Made me smile to :)
Yeah, same here.
@@botonddeak same
Same
and this is what gaming is missing nowadays. original, non-competitive, all around memorable fun. i miss those days
Agree
I remember replaying left 4 dead levels with friends and we didn’t care cos we were just having fun. Now it’s gotta be “ooooo no scope lete pro I’m a twitch partner” like good for you man I have real friends and a paying job soooooo 🤣
@@ellieellieonthewall9189 yep. now it's all competition to be on the top, to be the best. never any stakes at hand, just fun.
That's what I love about Halo MCC on the custom games browser, login with a few friends on discord and just have a grand old silly time. That's honestly what I prefer with multiplayer games. Surea good round of slayer is fun every so often but I mostly prefer silly dumb fun kind of multiplayer.

There isn't a single cloud in the sky and I'm burning because of how high the temperature is.
He really wasn't referring to the weather, he was reffering to the times
@@alvzcizzler I know, but I thought it'd make up for the perfect joke.
Maybe it was funnier in my head...
Oof
@@Videogameapprentice oh shit, what's up?
I know you're joking, but considering he lives in Australia, that might actually be true, it's winter over there right now
OH MY GOD HE'S BACK MY FIRST RUclipsR IS BACK !!
I CAN'T CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT EITHER :DD
@@razorsz195 FUCK YEAHHH !!
qu'est-ce que RADAL BABUSHKA EARRAPE?
*GHG uploads a video*
Literally the best thing happened in 2020 so far
Love from Palestine ♥
so true!
100% agree
its been like 6 months haha
i heard he was infected thats why
but its filmed in 2016 hahaha
hope he comes up with something new recorded recently
That intro had a strange almost aperture science feel to it.
GHGTV always makes us feel at home.
The Sims Urbz GBA music... that's why I love this channel
@@Devilot91 The composer released a remaster of all tracks in 2019 :) ruclips.net/video/bFzrwmYuQVE/видео.html
He has also released some lost tracks and early versions: ruclips.net/video/OMhEUh9dW7Y/видео.html
@@jarnobot Hey thank you so much for this! :)
@@Devilot91 No problem! Cheers!
Guess we will see you again in like 5 months lol
Happy new year and uhh, still no video.
Shiiit still never happen
Aaa
5 months later and nothing
i still believe that ill see a new video soon
maaaan when that sims 2 on DS music played I felt such a flashback.
Here's to GHG, great games, great hardware, great cars, and great music!
I loved that game, now I miss my OG DS :'(
Glad to hear you’re still kicking Tim, looks like you and your mates had some fun I’ve always wanted to do a LAN party
LAN parties are really fun
AMT Productions I’ve heard stories, just nobody around me wants to do something like that even before the current global events started happening
@@Taken_Alpha I had one in May at my birthday, but it was only with 1 other person
@@memmoman well I've decided that if I can't afford new PCs then old ones should be enough... so I now have a row of circa '00 year pc's for some quake 3 or diablo 2 if anyone comes to my house :P
This brings that special warm feeling of the old "LAN" and gaming party days. Super cool, appreciate you sharing these moments.
YES YES.
I talk about you with my friend from time to time reminiscing on your awesome artistic qualities. I'm glad you're still kicking, your videos are so pure and nice to watch.
Please come back ಥ︵ಥ
Nobody makes videos quite like you.
I was actually going to take 4 raspberry pi computers and enclose them in a small box to make a cool quake 3 (and what ever else I could get to run on them) lan box that could be easily thrown into a back pack and taken anywhere and enjoyed by up to four players.
Thats actually a great idea. Id love to see a video on the building process.
I'd love it if I could run Unreal with it tbh, more of an Unreal guy than Quake but Quake ain't bad either...
What about screens tho? I'd love to be able to split-screen too but that would require some form of a PIP machine that could take 4 HDMI signals I think.
@@xan1242 well i think it depends on the design of the box. If its four PIs places properly on each side of the box could it could contain all of each PIs ports right?. I dont remember the exact location of each port on the raspberry Pi but i imagine it would be rather simple. Im imagining something of a central box that each moniter could plug into each side, along with keyboard, mouse etc.
@@christopherrobyn4416 Ye but how would you handle video output tho? That's the concerning part, not the ports...
If you wanna do splitscreen, you have to have some hdmi/screen multiplexer (either software or hardware, tho with hardware would be less latency).
@@xan1242 well the cool thing is I would use 4 separate raspberry pi computers so each side of the box will have 4 usbs and an hdmi to use so basically set the box in the center of a table then each setup would be on one side of the table. And as for unreal it would work as long as it has some port to raspberry pi and what ever Vinson of linux its using. I know quake 3 works because of its open source nature but I am not sure about unreal would have to look it up
I sure wonder were this channel went. It was quite unique and homely. Best of luck if you are burned out.
dude i rediscovered GHG 2 days ago and binged the whole GHG library. This is epic.
I hope you're back for good mate! Look at 2020! We need you more than ever mate!! 😭😭
oh my he's dead for the past 9 months 😭😭😭😭
Fun fact this video was teased at the end of his “why you’ll love Xbox one” video.
We need GHG to come back during these times! ❤️ You inspired me to get a Sony Trinitron TV for my older consoles, indeed, nothing like that CRT feel.
Moreso than many other videos you've posted in the past, this one just filled me with an overwhelming sense of joy and warmth. I'm not usually one to reminisce all too often out of fear of being stuck in the past but man, this sure conjures up some damn good times for me. Long live the LAN party.
Its new year's eve, and in a few hours this year will end (maybe it wont and we'll see a December 32nd?)
But anyways, if you see this. Happy New Year!
Ah 2016, everyone thought you were an awful year, you really didn't feel like you were really that long ago... Also the year I got into computers and stuff like that... And here we are now
It was awful until November 8th.
I loved that entire year along with 2015.
every year is the worst year becuase people want to feel special for hating everything
@@joesmobody5152 dude the whole year was awful that whole election season and results were all shit. politics ruined that year
Was a good year for me, I finished the hell hole that was secondary school and started College.
Hey there person in the comment section months after the video came out. I'd just like to say, I think it's really important you do throw a LAN party. And enjoy yourself. One day your hands won't grip a controller quite as well, and you'll be plum out of luck.
Amazing video and 5 months later still is a nice change! Been a long-term fan and always love to see your video even if I'm a bit late to watch! hope you're doing well and all, really hope to see some more videos once you get around to it!
Missed you buddy
Man this brought back so many memories. The trip to the store had me grinning ear to ear 😆
Missed you man.
I'm going to save this for tonight's chilling session with a few slices of pizza and ice tea :)
Welcome back
I await your return king……or not you’ve done so much for us and your videos are like no other with their unique feel. Cheers mate wherever you are
happy to see a video of yours again, came back after a while
Your videos are so nostalgic and cosy, I hope you come back to uploading more often man x
Im soo happy seeing you upload a video in a long time, good to have you back
OMG the legend is back
Much love from Morocco.
The sims bustin' out and The sims 2 for gba ost, I see you are a man of culture... (You should do a video about these games... very underrated!)
Can't get over the intro, it's so well made!
You are like Tarantino man Once in a while you make content But when you do It's just amazingly acceptable!
Glad to see another GHG video in my sub box. I'm hoping this marks a return to even more content! :)
I knew they were gonna be playing halo 3 before even clicking on the video.
Long long long time subscriber here, this upload is the best thing 2020 has bought me! Thank you , and please keep them coming
It's been a while , but content is still an Aussi doc that we have come to know and love
Damn this video will be completely nostalgic already.
after doing this like 5 times over a couple years with friends, i gotta say, everyone needs to do this
2016: XBOX 360 LAN Party
2021: XBOX ONE LAN Party?
2026: XBOX Series X LAN Party?
Keep uploading your honest tech videos, GHG. We are waiting for a high quality content.
Lol
Missed you man :), since I last watched you i transferred from intel hd to Radeon 6000 series, from a laptop to a desktop, from Minecraft to Forza. It’s been so long, good to see you again.
Radeon HD 6000? F for you friend, I hope you can upgrade from terascale asap, what even is your cpu?
@@sgcs hd 6770 with 512mb of vram (imac mid 2011), its absolutely enough for what i play but im running the fans hard because i dont want it to fail. my cpu is an i5 2500s, way better than the i3 m380 i had in my previous laptop
@@PackardKotch F
Been here since 5k in 2016. I’m so glad u out here making it
Still waiting for the next video man, rewatching your old ones. I love your work.
this was a nice wee surprise for what has in total been a shyte year, and great to see the legendary Saab.
I'm so happy over how much effort goes into these videos.
Hopefully GHG will start uploading more videos again :)
Oh god, I can hear the fly-back transformer whine. My ears are melting. I thought I lost that hearing range already? I need to cleanse my ears with a Metalica concert.
NEW GREEN HAM! 2020 starting to shape up finally! On a real note I'm not sure if you read the comments but you are my favorite youtuber. Thanks for the content drop.
*HE’S BACK*
Thanos: sweating nervously*
I still watch your videos on rainy days such as this. Or when I'm working on computers. They remind me why I love working on them and building them when it gets hard or a client gets fussy.
When the world needed him most, he returned!
Lan black ops zombies with all the maps sounds like a dream land ive long forgotten.
Used to do this back when I lived in a youth hostel back in 09, great fun! So much Halo 3 was played in that common room. Stay safe
Also shotgun VS gravity hammer rarely ends well
Probably one of the best channels on RUclips. I'm an Aussie too so if I ever run into you man I'm buying you a beer haha
Or a cup of tea if that's more his thing
This brings back good memories from My Boy Scout lock-in where we would just be playing Halo on four screens two players each capture the flag was a lot of fun
That fucking song at the end. The Sims 2 DS memories come flooding back.
So happy to see a video from you dude, hello from South Africa!
Oh my. The Urbz music in a GHG video. I never thought I needed that
Can’t wait to see you again man. I think I can say, all your fans miss you, and will be more then happy to get a cup of tea, or a beer, and come along for the ride.
I just noticed how much i miss your content..
Damn. Hope you're doing well.
Man, your video notification made my day. Glad you're back.
Thank you for the message at the start of the video. You are very aware of your audience and I like that. Love the video and love your channel, you have a very unique, special, nostalgic and inspiring way of making videos. Have a cup of tea and a good day everyone ;)
GHG IS BACK, YES
CARS HARDWARE LOT OF GOOD MUSIC
and snack, forever snack

Dude, you have alot of talent. If you created consistent quality content you could easily make a living off this channel. You could be the Australian Scott The Woz!
Eagerly awaiting the next GHGtv production, been watching your videos since 2016. Hope you're staying healthy and safe.
Ah, the Urbz OST. A man of culture as well, great job GHG!
Every time green ham uploads it's my day made
I'm glad you're back.
The 12-Player Halo 2 LAN party me & fellow pupils held on our final week of school in 2007 remains one of my most beloved multiplayer match-ups I've ever had. None of us had any LCDs at the time (I know it wasn't until late 2007 before any form of flat-screen arrived in my home), so we had to set-up good ol' CRTs (3 small 4:3s, & one huge 16:9) for it, but it was one tidy set-up that made for a grand time with the pure mosh-pit that was King of the Hill on Midship with Rockets-Only easiest to remember.
For as inconvenient or lacking in opportunity a good split-screen or LAN get-together can be (Especially when most of my friends are across an ocean, let-alone the country), they'll always be the best way to enjoy a good multiplayer and co-op game, as despite the many true joys I've had from being able to party-up with folks from across the ponds & borders of the world, there's nothing quite like having good company sitting in the same room or even on the same sofa while you journey through Halo together, hug walls in Gears of War, share the mayhem of Castle Crashers, slap each other silly throughout Rayman Origins & Legends, flounder your way through Overcooked! and so much more.
And what do you know, it is actually a rainy day on my end. A lovely saving well spent, chap!
Great way to start my morning. GHG is back
Woahh the legend is back
I miss your new videos. Keep up the good work and always be safe and in love. God bless us all and more power to your career and success in life. We love you.
Welcome back! Best bday gift ever tbh.
I was 20 years old in 2016 and I was doing things exactly like this. Good memories.
You uploading is great, I have a hot cup of coffee (not tea, sorry), and it's raining outside, and looking at your video while configuring a virtual machine is nice. Thank you.
MY HEART DROPED ITS 2 AM AND I DIDNT KNOW YOU UPLOADED
GHG Please upload more videos! the quality of filming, the ideas, that magic in your videos is so unique, it's like nothing out there, every-time I see a new video from you it's like a birthday celebration, keep up your amazing work, you have superb talent and I just cannot stress it enough, you are legit awesome!
THANK GOD YOU'RE BACK :) please post more idc how old the videos are

Really enjoyed this Tim, saved me from a panic attack! Stay safe my friend

I just love this channel, it's so chill yet so thrilling at the same time!
So many memories of Xbox 360
