XLink Kai7 Gears Up For Xbox/PS2/GC Tunneling

koniosis writes "XboxLink has just launched their new site for XLink Kai7 - this nifty little soon-to-be-available tool lets you play LAN-enabled games over the internet with some funky packet sniffing. You can play PS2/Xbox and Gamecube games online, connecting through your PC, and it's completely free - there's even 'integrated Speex.org codec based group chatting'! The XLink Kai download client itself 'will debut... on Saturday 22nd May, at midnight BST', according to the site, but you can register as part of the community now." We've previously covered the WarpPipe tunneling software for GameCube, but this multi-platform solution looks even more enticing.

M$ will sure love this. Especially since mostly all the games (all but 3) that Xlink supports are Xbox titles.
Great idea though. I sure think it's a rip off to have to pay 50 a year to hear teen punks saying "Hey, get the fsck off my server!"
