Subject: Just started playing Halo 2, some stuff I need to know...

I have been playing Halo 3 since it came out, and thought I would play Halo 2 to see what it is like. I have some questions...

I. I see there are many map packs, which ones do I need to play online?
II. How do I change my emblem and character colours?
III. Can I join an XBL Party with my friends (who are on 360 games) while I play?

I can help! Yay!

I. Yes, you now need all map packs to play online :( does take a few hours.
II.Aha. Go to the Main menu, go to "Options" and just have a look around, "Appearance" should be somwhere.
III. I don't think so. You can try, it might work, but you'll have to give it a shot.

You cannot be in an XBL party when you play a game for the original xbox. The guide button can't be used at all when you play Halo 2.

You get booted if someone is playing on a X-box and you are playing PC. If this would help you, Playing halo 2 online is sorta like halo 3 just now there aren't armor perm's to worry about. Also if playing, try your best to get a wraith it fires more like a sniper now for some reason (not like 4 shots relod i mean you can shoot them simutaniously). Oh and look out for flying warthogs n00bs got blu trainer so you are screwed if you see one (unless they are on your team)
