Ok thanks. That's probably my favorite, but only because they took out Ranked Rumble Pit. I hadn't played this game for a long time and when I came back, I was really disappointed to see that there was no more Ranked Rumble Pit. I told my cousin, who hadn't played Halo 2 in awhile and he was really disappointed, too. Even if it had lower usage than other playlists, they still could have kept it for those of us who liked it. I'm sure there was still enough people playing Ranked Rumble Pit, so that everybody could easily find matches. It makes me wonder about Halo 3. I don't even know if I want to spend $60 and really like a playlist, just so they can take it away because there isn't 200,000 people playing it at all times. That really sucks. Halo 2 has the best match making, that I've seen, but it is also the first online game that I've seen, where online features are cut out as time goes on, so now everybody has to wonder whether their favorite playlist is going to be cut or not. It's a shame to see so many gamers that are so loyal to Bungie, but yet Bungie cuts out online features that many people like. Think about it, Halo 3 was sold before they even started making it, but yet they are so petty, that they cut out playlists from Halo 2! Imagine how many playlists will be cut when Halo 3 comes out. They will probably try to make everybody switch from Halo 2 to Halo 3 and just say screw all the people who are playing Halo 2, even though alot of Halo 2 players don't even have an Xbox 360. I don't care if anyone flames me either. Whoever flames me can look like a fool, sticking up for a company that has took away features that some people pretty much bought the game for. When I came back to playing Halo 2, I was forced to by new maps to get into matchmaking and I would have never bought the maps if I knew that they took out Ranked Rumble Pit. I would have never guessed that they would cut out features on the most popular online game to date for Xbox Live.
