The TrueSkill System - a better way to matchmake.
Over at IGN, there's a pretty interesting article on the matchmaking system on Xbox Live that will be ushered in with the Xbox360. The current system in place for Halo 2 is used as a comparison throughout the article (from here on in, all games will use the same system, rather than leaving matchmaking up to the individual developers), and the article lays out how the new system might do better. It brings up an interesting point, though - will the new system work with the original Xbox? The article doesn't say, one way or the other... but if it doesn't, will there be TWO matchmaking systems in place for games like Halo 2? Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 13:55:32 UTC)
