The excitement and anticipation I felt from the release of Halo 2 turned into feelings of disgust and extreme dissapointment. I hardly play Halo 2 (for numerous reasons) and it is near impossible to play a game of Halo 1 on Xbconnect without horrible lag due to the lack of hosts. Even though I desperatley want to play Halo 1 agianst other people I can't, so I find myself not playing either of the Halo games. WHAT IS GOING ON? Is it not obvious to Bungie that there is a large outpouring from Halo fanatics that we want and are begging for Halo 1 on xbox live?

From what I've read on other articles, Halo 1 does not contain a code which would allow Bungie to add new levels and xbox capabilities. I don't want excuses, remake the game from scratch but don't change a thing, except for the addition of a few new multiplayer levels and xbox live. Bungie needs to listen to the voice of the people, "We want halo 1 on xbox live and we are willing to pay for it."

hell yes man..your right on...i thought the wait for halo 2 was to long for it.They need halo on xbox live,but if they do remake not mattter how hard we tell them not to touch it they will update the graphics,or change something that we don't need.So really no matter what happens we won;t get are halo experience that we hope for so much.But if bungie has the balls to at least try,the hell ya ill pay for a new halo jsut so i could play it online.

Are you kidding me? Are you aware you just requested two years of work? That's ludicrous(sp?) Don't you see that Halo 2 is just a sick, amped up version of Halo? Cuz that's what it is. And most people, including Bungie, think its just fine. Give it up.

You're exactly right, Halo 2 is just fine. Don't you think after the long wait it should of been a little bit better than just fine? Halo 1 is fantastic.

Well damn if you think so then maybe I should think so too. I thought it was just as good as 1 believe it or not. No I'm not into Halo for the multiplayer, it's always been about the Campaign for me. Xbox Live was just an added bonus in my eyes.

you cant even wish, so stop as bungie is never going to make halo 1 for x-live. reason is because there is no point in making a game when there is a better one already for x-live. so stop complaining and posting about a game you dont like anymore. halo 2 is fine the way it is, halo 1 is fine the way it is. if you want to play halo 1 online then buy the computer verson.

He's right, no, wait. You are all right. Halo1 would be cool for the x-live, but Halo2 is better.

I too am a die hard fan for Halo 1. To make up for not having L!VE, I am just playing PC. Its not the same but its better than 2. Just get PC and an X-Box to USB adapter for you controller for now. I am waiting for mine to arrive in the mail either today or Monday. There was a previous post as to why they wouldnt put Halo 1 to L!VE due to the time and money needed to do it. Sorry dude.

ANYONE HERE, that says halo 2 is better than Halo 1, I Challenge You to a game of Halo 2, You'll see that after I get the sniper rifle first, and camp the whole time, the difference in skill. My camping, will dominate your camping.... in the end, the "SKILL" is just who gets to the power weapons first and then camps/respawn kills. Unlike in Halo 1, when everyone started off with the Pistol, a weapon that made it hard to camp with, seeing as you could take anyone out, even from across the map, with enough SKILL.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

im with you on that one. Its not just the game, its the people, there are alot of jerks on H2 these days. i never here the words Good Game, just a bunch of trash. i find my self playing other games that are in my opinion better then H2, like chost recon 2. BUNGIE made alot of promises about H2 that got me excited and that all turned into wow H2 is just an ok game

I think the reason that people dont like halo 2 as much as one, is that they preordered it and spent all that time waiting, imagining what it was going to be like, picturing the perfect game. Then, when it came out and didn't match their dream, they felt betrayed and dissapointed. That's my story anyway, Im still a die hard Halo 1 fan.
