I got an arcade for X-Mas and i play only halo 3 but i used to play halo 2 at friends houses a lot. I am thinking of get halo 2 because it was alot more fun and the people on live were cool and nice to me. Halo 3 is just infested with 7 year olds.

My question is will i be able to play halo 2? I have an Xbox 360 arcade, and then i bought the arcade upgrade kit for 100 dollars on ebay. It came with 60 gig harddrive (HD), a mice, and a 3-months of live. Will i have backwards compatability. I googled and look around and could find a solid yes or no answer. Can someone with expericence tell me yes or no and if yes, is there something i need to do. Also can i get the map pack on the original xbox marketplace

Thanks,
Moegain

Yes you will be able to play Halo 2
You will need to download all of the map packs to do so but they are all free, it takes a while though.

Have fun.

Yeah, you can play online with the Arcade, I do. Yes, go through the original H2 dash menu to get map packs and to sign-on.

Thank you. There was no deffiant answer plus halo 2 is so much better gameplay wise than halo 3. For features i would rather play halo 3, i love theater mode.

Well, what part was hard? Watch my vid, get Sputnik and lure the Banshee with a Ghost. With Sputnik and a Ghost, moving the Banshee where you want is really easy. You just have to make sure you block the Banshee from going to the tunnel/shaft on the right.
