I haven't heard of anything happening. As far as I know they will be continuing to support halo 2 for a long time.

Shishka said something a couple weeks ago that they have no intention at that moment of taking Halo 2 off live.

  • 04.15.2009 3:47 PM PDT

Suck it Red!

This same topic came up about a month or so ago, and Shishka denied that Bungie was taking down the H2 servers any time in the near future.

Since organized communities are usually more enjoyable, you should take your time to read the forum rules to save yourself some trouble and help keep the forums clean :-)

Unless you've got word from an official, then there's nothing to worry about. Rumors spread like wildfire over the Internet, so whatever you may have heard is most likely false without confirmation from someone with an official spot on the subject.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

theyd never shut down halo 2. people still play it and still buy it.

Uh, no. Halo 2 doesn't run on dedicated servers, so as long as the service keeps being maintained and people are still playing the game, in theory the game will still be on Xbox Live until the last person logs off. I haven't heard anything about ending the service, though, and I can't really think of a reason why they would.

im really not sure but i wouldnt worry about it. i dont really think that they would do something like that. they are aware that people still play halo 2 and they know that they will get plenty of complaints if it is shut down. like i said, dont worry about it unless you hear from a reliable source

Im a Bungie veteran. I have and always will serve them well.

i doubt they would shut down the servers but its hard to find matches now these days.

But halo 2 Vista plays on Servers

Programatically invading forums.

  • 04.17.2009 10:19 PM PDT

I highley doubt it because it's still going #1.

  • 04.18.2009 2:29 AM PDT

they better not, but if they do... back to x-link for me lol

  • 04.18.2009 6:44 AM PDT

Does anyone even read these?

I call shenanigans!

  • 04.18.2009 7:07 AM PDT

A Halo 2 player never dies, they are just Missing in Action

I thnk Oasis is a pretty cool guy. Eh sings Baetles songs and doesn’t afraid of anything

its been the #1 original xbox game online just about every single week since its came out

and if people are still playing it then I highly doubt they'll shut them down anytime soon
