Any server will do... but just be sure it can handle the number of people who will be connecting. |

Well I know of no game that will allow 200 people on one server (other than MMOs). What game(s) do you intend to play? |

Yeah I just got back from a Lan party a couple hours ago. We stayed up all night playing Call of Duty and World of WarCraft. Im not sure if there is a server that holds 200 people. |

Oh you could get a server to handle that many easily (but expensive). Its the game that limits it. |

The only game that I know of that MIGHT support 200 is Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising. |

You don't need a server then.... just four Xboxes, four TVs and a system link cable. |
