Well, it can, but it gets pretty laggy at times and I can only play Campaign. The lag I can sort of understand, but why does the game freeze when I try to pick a multiplayer type? Is there a way to "update" the Xbox emulator? Will I need Xbox Live for that?

I'm certifiable.

I moved this to the Halo 1 forum, as the Underground is for discussing pre-Halo games or events in Bungie Studios.

As to updating the emulator, I think that the backwards compatibility was redone after the console release; if so, it would be available over Live. You wouldn't need a Gold account to access it, just have your 360 logged into Live and then load the Halo disc.

-- Steve's rerunning the Halo campaign right now on his 360, himself. Ah, nostalgia.

Yeah, it will. If it doesn't, just hook up your 'Box to the internet and you can download an update.
