Could you please be more specific in what you mean. Thank jah.

But regarding your question, yes, you can play Halo 2 on your Xbox 360 with your Gold account. Halo 2 doesn't make the distinction between an Original Xbox Gold account, and a 360 Gold one.

You cannot play Halo 2 with a Silver X360 account, and you need to make sure you have Original Xbox games enabled in Family Settings.

well I did everything possible even calling xbox live customer service and they told me that they know about the problem but so far they have no solutions to this problem of not being able to play halo 2 online. You see i had to buy a separate disc with the halo 2 update and all the map packs and it still didn't work for online play. So i don't know if you got any more info hit me up on here thanks!

When it says you need the maps it should bring you directly to it automatically to download. I don't think you will find them manually in the normal XBox Live Marketplace.

After you are first signed-in on the 360 dash, select 'Play H2'. Then press 'Start' and select a profile, then select your GT and it will sign you in again. Then select 'Xbox Live' and then choose profile again. At this point the maps will be on your screen to download (as well as other matchmaking stuff).
