I'm certifiable.

My understanding is that no changes have been made; it's a straight copy of the disc files. Definitely no Live play and no Achievements, anyway.

However, I have no trouble running Halo 1 at 1080i on my 360... at first things were ugly, but the latest back-compat fix cleaned it up nicely.

Looking forward to Halo being downloadable on xbox live however, has it been optimised to run at 1080i? the original version does not run well at all on the 360 unless you drop the resolution to 720 or less. If nothing has changed i really can't see the point of downloading a game i've already got.

Sorry, i'm new to this forum stuff.
question - what is the ' back-compat fix ' are you referring to the latest 360 update?
Its a pity the Halo download is not the PC version, i understand Halo CE has multiplayer with new weapons etc, surely this would have been the ideal choice for xbox live, imagine that, Halo 1, 2 and 3 all being played on xbox live.....
