So, I went through the map installation (took forever) got situated and booted it up. The problem is my girlfriend and I play together and so any game has to have split screen.

Yeah Halo2 has split screen, but it is a vertical split. WTF? I can't find any option to change it to a horizontal split. I tried a few workarounds that work in other games but cannot get it going.

It is nearly impossible to play this way. The verticle split doesn't allow for much of a field of view so I am getting owned from my peripherals....not to mention it just feels janky and off when used to playing horizontally.

Any suggestions? I really want to enjoy this game and show my gf exactly what she missed out.

Set your format to 'Normal' for horiz split (it will already be on 'Widescreen' for vert split).

RIP Halo 2

That happened to me once with Halo 3. I believe the above post should help. I think that's what I did to fix it.
