Bearing in mind the PC/PS2 link with their servers, I was just wondering what any of you Xboxers have found the population on your servers like. I hope to have my US copy of XBox PSU tomorrow, and although I prob won't set up a new US silver Gamertag, but rather wait for GL to start in UK (24th) I just wondered how servers compare population wise.
I'm pretty sure I will pick up a PC copy as well just to be on the safe side

Right now it looks like Universe 1 and 2 are usualy packed full with Universe 3 running at a more comfortable population. The remaining 27 are usualy pretty baren.
Universe 1 is almost always full with universe 2 sometimes with it.. but other than that.. it's not so full.

Although, before Gears of War and CoD3 tservers 1-3 were usually jam packed and 4 was always at 3-4 stars.
Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire.
I guess that being on two platforms, the PS2 and PC servers are bound to pick up more people.
Still, two busy servers are certainly better than nowt

Just wait for the EU release... it's going to jump...
And you do have to remember other game releases, like GoW, and especially over christmas!
Yep, fair points, and as Thrash say's, come the 24th the population should certainly receive a boost.
I have to add that I much prefer playing Phantasy Star on a console, just feels right, so I would be reluctant to spend too much time on PC, plus I have an old PS2, no network adapter, so it's def 360 for me.

Are the Xbox servers well populated?
No
Gears of War owns xbox live now.

Not really.

Universe one is almost always full, even during late night hours.
Universe two is usually at 3 stars, but fills to 5 at peak hours.
If you're lucky, you might see Universe 3 full, but it's usually only 3 stars on peak hours, and empty thereafter.
Universe 4 - 30 are guaranteed 1/2 stars.
There's more than enough people to play with if you're looking for random squads, but it's nothing major.
