None of the other backwards compatible consoles have any extra latency because they are running a previous generation game so I don’t imagine the Xbox would either although that would be an interesting thing to look up.

 

I have forwarded the Xbox Live! ports to AJ so they should be cleared through the filter within the next couple business days.

 

one caveat though that distinguishes this generation of backwards compatible consoles from those like the ps2 is that today’s backwards compatibility is accomplished by software (i.e. emulation) while earlier consoles used a hardware-based approach.

 

Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but this is the first gen of consoles to achieve backwards compatibility by software emulation rather than building it into the hardware platform. That’s why it’s not an apples to apples comparison to say that old backwards compatible consoles didn’t experience the lag problem so these ones shouldn’t either.

Actually I was refering to the Gamecube and Wii which both use a mix of software and hardware but ok…

 

Anyone noticed a difference in Xbox live lag?

I know the PS3 has supporting hardware for its emulation, and the 360 may as well.

 

As for Live, it works flawlessly. Oh Malley was having issues, but he thinks it’s his router.

So after the LAN troubleshooting session with our network engineer who is still seeing issues on XBL on campus?

[Oh Malley]

None as of yet. I thought I was; turned out it was just a router issue. It’s all good. All green here.
