How to System Link Modern Warfare 2 With Multiple People

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" is renowned for its online, multiplayer capabilities. However, those who don't have online service, such as Xbox Live or PSN, and want to play exclusively with friends or use multiplayer maps without competing against the elevated skill level of online play can connect with other systems locally with an Ethernet cable. "Modern Warfare 2" supports this feature.

Things You'll Need

Ethernet cable
2 game consoles

Instructions

- 1
  Plug an Ethernet cable into its corresponding ports on the backs of both consoles you're connecting. It looks like an elongated phone jack port.
- 2
  Power on both systems and insert "Modern Warfare 2" into the consoles. Choose the option to play the game from the system's launch menu.
- 3
  Select the "Multiplayer" option on the right side of the game's title menu.
- 4
  Select "System Link" from the list of options in the menu that follows. Allow the systems to establish a connection. A pregame lobby will then open to allow players to join a match.
