i was just wondering if you can have more than one profile per XBL account for halo 2. the reason i ask is because my brother and i both love halo but he's not very good and i'm pretty good. if we had to have the same account then if he played halo 2 it would mess up my rank. i was also wondering if you can play more than one person per box in lan games, because most games now adays, like raindow six, have only one person per box.

I don't think you can create more than one account on a supscription. If you don't want your brother messing up your rank than you have 4 solutions:
1.) Buy a new Xbox Live membership.
2.) Only let him play on Xbox Live as a guest with you.
3.) Don't let him play at all.
4.) Or you can simply deal with the fact you will never do good in the rankings since your brother is an awful Halo player.

no u have to log on together. its just like mechassault and pgr2 guys. the guest dosnt have a rank either, so if u play wit a sucky guest, he wont affect ur rankings.

Sorry man you have to have two accounts if u want separate user names. The only way u could have two usernames is if bungie made a deal wit xbox live so that u could be i highly doubt they can. And if u have a guest they dont get kills ranks or any of that and that it why they will have ranked and unranked rules if guests make it into the final product. Because if they make it in the final product then u have to have ranked and unranked rooms. But yea u have to pay for two accounts if u really want two usernames sorry.
