A Vidmaster alternative for those with bad connections
Many people are discovering that Halo 3: ODST's finicky campaign networking can make it difficult to complete the Vidmaster Achievements - they require a long, uninterrupted stretch of connection to LIVE, and for many people, that's not a possibility. Well, back in July, we brought you news that the Vidmaster: Annual Achievement could be completed over system link, as long as the party was logged into LIVE. pete_the_duck confirmed that Endure, at least, can also be completed this way; he knows, because he did it. Thanks to sithhead for bringing the issue up! (To clarify: this doesn't mean you can do it without a LIVE connection. It simply means you don't need a LIVE connection to actually transfer data from one player to another - which means that the 'lag-out-because-of-a-bad-connection' problem is greatly reduced.) Update: Achronos dropped in a little caveat that's worth reading, to save you some headaches... (Louis Wu 13:25:31 UTC)
