Will it work?
Will it have any disadvantages
Will it blend?

I have only played H2 matchmaking on my 360.

Besides the graphics issue with the ghost image ect.... nothings really the same. But i've never played that much halo 2 on the xbox seeing as i got into halo shortly before the 360 came out, and i started playing when i got my 360. The graphics i've heard are better.

There's only two noticeable differences: you can send voice messages to people, but they won't be able to understand them...and you can see the snow flakes better on lockout.

You can't play the map Backwash. But they took it out of MM, so unless you intend to play it in a custom, you should be fine.

I can play campaign mode on my XBox 360, but I've never been able to log in and play online.

Load H2 first and then work your way through till you can download the maps, then play. If this is not your problem, please explain in more detail in Dr WE1RD's pinned topic.

I've never played all the way through on my XBox 360 - just on the original XBox. That might be my issue then. Guess I'll have to hang up my Halo 3 online for a few hours and go beat Halo 2 on normal just for kicks to get in then.

It works for me. It takes a while for me to load the game though.

Interesting, I wonder why you would have to finish Campaign in order to go online? I don't see why it would prevent you from working your way through the H2 menus (extensive) to get online.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

The radio chatter in campaign sounds funny.
