i just ordered halo 2 for the pc so i can get achievements for it and was wondering if i will be able to either play online or system link with an xbox

Nope. It's not cross-platform.

Halo 2 Vista players can only play with other Halo 2 Vista players.

Like Bapabooiee said, it's not. The Vista version is using an entirely different MM system in which you search for more or less custom games. So while it doesnt have the ranked/social feature you'll be able to find games quicker.

Oh and I still need people to boost certain achievements with so feel free to add me, GT is linked.

It has the word "Halo" in its title. That means an automatic campaign playthrough for me.

I would play with the two of you, but my friend dropped my laptop (not a great gamer laptop, but still 1200) on the power cord and broke the power cord. So, I can't play with you, yet.

Feel free to add me, too, and I'll join you when I can.

How is the matchmaking on the PC Vista version? Are there more players then on Live at this point in time?
