Xbox 360 Lag switch?Wtf

[chrisalv14]

I was on youtube looking at xbox 360 games and gameplays and i came across a video showing you how to make a lag switch for xbox 360.
I want to ask everyone here, have you made a lagswitch before?
what does it do?
and people are complaining that it signs you out of what ever you are on e.g. xbox live, network etc...

but how does it actually make people lag. or what ever it does?

Welcome to Standby.

Basically its a button that allows you to stop the packet flow either to your xbox , or from your xbox, or both. Which, back in the xbox original days of halo2 would allow you to walk around the map and kill some dudes without them knowing it/ being able to prevent it/ shoot you back.

The thing is, Microsoft is smart, and now adays if you try and pull this stunt it will just sign you off xbox live instantly. And if its repeated, you'll get your xbox banned from live.

yea the lag switch doesnt always boot u offline, theres all bridging people can force host on games and use programs to basically boot u from the game, as in halo u will go black screen when it comes back u will be the only one left

Yeah, I've got a friend on Xbox who does this in GoW2. It's nice to always be on his winning team!

You can do it without getting booted. I won't explain how, but you need a couple people for it to work.

Well i pretty much think that they have less chance of getting booted because the people may think that person who is using the switch has a bad connection.
