"I wort wort wort you."

First, I would recommend buying Halo CE, before buying Halo 2. Just because it's better. But anyways back to the topic.

1. You don't need to download anything, on the three map packs.
A. There are three map packs, some are very large and some very small.
B. Probably one Update, not very big.
3. No not at all
4. Enough people play halo 2 for you to have a good experience playing it :D

If you have any more question, please ask :D

Call me Reach.

Do it.

It's amazing if you want a change of scenery from Halo 3.

Awesome.

What do I need to download once I get it?

A few map packs. They're all free. Takes a good 15-20 minutes depending on your connection.

Maps? (*if so how big alltogether)

Nothing too big.

Updates?(*if so how big)

Quick and easy.

I have Xbox 360 Live gold subscription. will I get charged to playing an Old Xbox game?

No extra charges. You continue to pay what you've been paying to play your Xbox 360 games online.

How many people play halo 2 each day for xbox?

A decent amount. Well, enough to get a few games going. Use these forums to get some players together.

A fair amount of people play Halo 2. And it does take a bit for the map packs to be downloaded, but they're all worth it. If you really want to get the fun out of it, I would recommend you try out the Combat Evolved (Halo 1) first. With this, you learn the controls faster and you'll understand the world of Halo.

Or you could try Halo 3, but I find Halo 3's multiplayer modes a little less interesting and less fun.
