    System Link/Xbox live with different region games

    I have a chipped Pal Xbox, and own Halo from the USA (faster framerate etc) and the rest of the games from the UK. I'm buying my brother an Xbox as they're so cheap now, and was wondering about system link compatability.

    Will my US copy of Halo on a UK Xbox, work on system link with his UK copy of Halo (If I buy it)? For other region free games like Splinter Cell Pandora tomorrow, say there WAS a problem that different region games can't use system link, as it's region free I'd be able to play a US copy with his UK one if he bought it?

    And will games such as Burnout 3 and Halo 2 work perfectly over Xbox live with his UK versions, even though I would buy the US versions? As I know the UK Halo was slower than the US one...and if Halo 2 did work fine with Xbox live with people in the UK and USA, would system link work too?

    No. Even if you run it in Pal mode. I'm pretty sure all software needs to be the same region for system link. Halo certainly does. Dunno about region free stuff though.

    As for live, there are no issues.
