Trying to organize XBOX System Link night. Anyone know where to find a list of XBOX games that have system link feature and allow up to 4 people per XBOX playing against each other over system link? Know about Halo. Very few game reviews seem to provide this information.

I use System Link sometimes with my two Xboxes and a group of friends.
There are basically 3 games that allow up to 4 people per TV/Xbox and up to 16 people total through System Link/Lan: Halo, Brute Force, and MotoGP 2. Anyone else know of any other games?
Brute Force allows for Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and cooperative play through the campaign via system link. You can put up to 4 players on each Xbox and up to 16 players total for Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch. The campaign only allows for 4 players total, but you can divide it up anyway you want (i.e. two players on two Xboxes each system linked to make 4 players total, or 4 players on one Xbox, or 3 on one and one on another Xbox, or one person per Xbox with 4 Xboxes linked, etc.) If you wanna know more about Brute Force, just ask me. I've played it about 50 hours total single and multiplayer. Warning: Brute Force has a little bit of lag when using System Link, whereas Halo is very smooth.
I do beleive that Moto GP2 allows for up to 4 players per Xbox and you can then link up to 16 gamers total through system link/Lan. I am 90% sure of this after reading the manual ... however I have not actually tried this myself since I only have one copy of the game. Can anyone verify?
Here are some multiplayer System Link games that ONLY allow ONE player per Xbox:
Unreal Championship
Midtown Madness 3
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
These 3 games have Xbox Live and System Link capabilities. However, only one person can be on one Xbox for System Link. I've tried it myself.

MechAssault is 2 per... for a total of 8.
Darwin says that MM3 is only one per, but I'm pretty sure that it's a 2 per as well.
But you know what... I do believe that Ghost Recon is a 4 per box/16 player game. Though I've never tried 4 players on one screen with this game. And actually, I've heard/read that it sucks. It's hard enough to see camouflaged enemies on a full screen!
Good luck to you, mr.
The most I've ever had is 3 boxes/12 people.
16... wow. Sounds like fun!
