Ok so I popped halo 2 into my 360...and tried to play online...but for EVERY SINGLE PLAYLIST it says "Do not have the maps required for this playlist" or whatever...did new maps come out for halo 2 and if they did how do I get them so I can play halo 2 online?

All of the Halo 2 Maps are free. You have to Download them.

All Halo 2 maps are up for free download. Go to Xbox live on the Halo 2 Main screen, then click on download able content. From there you can check if you have all the maps or download any new ones.

I had this same problem when I first tried to play Halo 2 online. Because of the system Bungie/Microsoft uses to create the playlists, you Have to have ALL the maps that have come out in order to play, and it can take a while to download em all, depending on connection speed etc. I'd say 2 hours for all 4 packs.

I know...but I started to download them a long time ago and the power went out...so now whenever I go to xbox live for halo 2 it says there is some damaged content...so how would I get back so I can RE-download them?!

Leaf over to System

Scroll to Memory (press A)

Now press A on HD

Then press A on Games

Scroll to H2 and press A

Find desired Map Packs and delete

Now you can redownload

Also, if you have a Memory module, this is where you would copy saves from. However, it has to be a game made specifically for the 360.
