1.5 Mb upload ... I really hope they increase that to at least 10 Mb. Seriously I have an Xbox 360, and I play on Xbox Live. Hosting games is almost impossible for me, with only 768Kb upload, many people lag on my host.

Then it comes to unfair connection advantage. I will explain .... I run up to someone and shoot them in the back with my shotgun ( Gears of War ). Now because my upload speed is so slow, he turns around and sees me, shoots me and because his upload speed is better, his shot counts before mine.

All because his data can reach my Xbox before mine can reach his.

Its complete Bulls***!

VM sort your damn upload speed out .... PLEASE!
