I think it would becool if you used a dremil and instead of having 4 controller ports, have 8.

What games are going to be playable with 8 people on ONE screen? 4 is a good number - imagine how small the split screens would need to be if you had 8 player Halo 2 on one Xbox?

I agree with MartinC. What would be better would be to add usb ports instead.

To have 8 players simultaneously one one Xbox would require far greater processer power than currently available. Even with a 128MB 1.4Ghz Upgraded Xbox, the GPU would still suffer.

2 Xboxes would be needed and from what I can see in the picture, that's what you already have ;)

Most large TVs have a dual screen facility - you can have one half of the screen from one input and the other half from another....

He's probably got Xbox #1 in AV1 and Xbox #2 in AV2, then split the screen to show them both.

Ingenious all the same ;)

Looks to me as the big screen tv has 7 players and the other tv off to the right of it has the 8th player on it.

How do you explain 8 different screens on the large TV if it's only 7 players?

There are more than two Xboxes there. 8 players are on the large screen and a 9th (off another Xbox) is on the smaller screen.

if you look closely at the top right it is one player and the little tv is the 8th. The little tv is proably connected to a sperate box tho.

Atleast someone got what I meant.

7 players on the big screen and the 8th on the smaller one off to the right, using a total of two xboxs.

It appears that ModderX is right, count how many Radars and Health/Shield Indicators there are total on the big screen. One for each screen, totalling in 7.
