I've been using the original xbox and have been trying to play some games over system link. Games like Halo 2 and Doom 3 worked fine without any noticable problems. Farcry: Instincts had some trouble working (saying network wire became unplugged), but then I used a somewhat shorter network wire and then it was okay.

But for some reason Unreal Championship 2 doesn't work at all. It just freezes once it gets to the loading screen when another player tries to join with system link. I don't know what's the problem. Any help?

This may not be the most useful advice, but: Check your xbox.
We treated ours as best we could, yet after a while it simply died. The laser stopped reading certain games, it would freeze... stuff like that. It's quite possible your xbox may have simply decided to give up. I'm pretty sure MS planned them to.
Get a couple of cheap 360s, and use them, is my recommendation. Other than that, check over your connection, get a different cable, try other xboxes (if you have access to them), or just accept that you're gonna miss out on one game.

I'm just wondering if UC2's network coding is bad or something cuz everything else works fine. The only thing bad about my xbox is that it can't read audio cds for some reason.
