This is a big deal. Possibly? Server things and gizmos and clankertickers don’t usually make that much of a difference to the general way we play games, but as something new this is a very interesting bit of information. Section 8, the upcoming FPS featuring skydiving from space, will be the first 360 game to feature user-created dedicated servers to the platform.
How will this be possible? Players can download a program onto their computer that will allow them create the servers for the game. While playing on the servers players will be able to compete with up to 32 others, which is evidently twice as many as usual on said servers. So I’m not sure how important this actually is, but it’s a bit more interesting than the last news we did on the game.
