No not true... A Bridge is just what the name implies... A Bridge...
It connects to disconnected networks. Imagine this senario...
You have LAN A which consists of your XBOX and PS3 and is on your primary level in your home (1st floor) and connected a some random networking device. Since you opted to run cables only to your PS3 and XBOX you can only see both of those devices on your LAN.
You also have LAN B which is on the third floor of our home. This network consists of your 2 PCs and internet connection. This is your main "LAN" and you would love to have your XBOX and PS3 connect to the internet and your two PCs up stairs. Instead of running a long cable instead you put a PC on the second floor.
This second floor PC has two network cards (NICs) with one connected to each seperate LAN. You then "bridge" the connections allowing devices on both seperate LANs to see each other.
What you hoped to describe isn't a Network Bridge, but instead is called LAN Teaming. Where you attempt to team network cards in an effort to get faster speeds.
