Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Specialty Hosting and Markets : How many mbs/gbs/tbs/ebs & resources do game servers take?

My question is how much resources would a game server take? Say something like halo 3. How the hell would that work? They probably BURN through EB's like KB's.
Probably pretty expensive

It generally is a good rule of thumb to use 2 EB's per user.
