Aquaduct 1 sat quietly on your Mac while you made noise playing Xbox System Link games over the Internet.
It was like you had an enormous crossover cable encircling the Earth.
Here are some key features of "Aquaduct":
The power to play some Xbox Halo online. Lots and lots of Halo. And 45+ other System Link games too.
The ability to register an XBConnect Tag and log in to the XBConnect server, where you'll find lots of Windows users who also want to play some Halo. You can use an existing Tag if you have one.
An Aqua-beautiful browser to list games. Lots and lots of games.
Live sorting and searching tools to manipulate the games list. 'Cause it's so full.
A little yellow Connect button, to join in on those games.
A chat interface, for both the XBConnect chat rooms and your own Aquaduct channel.
A slightly buggy buddy list to help organize your posse.
A mostly-complete step-by-step guide to using Aquaduct.
Stuff I have forgotten Aquaduct does.
Limitations:
Detecting Xboxes over an Airport network, though a major priority, is currently turned off entirely; it seems to give Aquaduct the power to kill stuff. You can still use a wireless network if the Xbox is on a hard line to your Mac.
We haven't localized the app for non-English languages. If you're a native (or very fluent) speaker of a non-English language, please contact us.
There are various other minor problems, which we'll be listing elsewhere. Like acne pustules, you can ignore them, or fixate on them, but either way you'll just have to wait them out while we wave our dermatological instruments around for a bit longer. None of these mostly-cosmetic issues should stop you from playing some Halo
