I changed usernames to match my gamertag. My original account, wambo114, was created when I got xbox live. I'm a 2007 kid really!

If I had a Rocket Launcher...

Shut up and get behind me... Sir!

The cable. I'm going to cut it.

Awesomeness would ensue.

A Halo 2 Glitch Master, "retired" since i couldn't find anything good in Halo 3, hoping for a come back. I'm a huge Marathon fan too. If you want to verse me, please message me through my Bungie.net profile.
My weapon of choice is the warthog (Driving); I'm one of the best drivers out there, so if i get my hand on a vehicle, you're going to wish i hadn't XD

April 20th I became one of the final 30 people to play Halo 2 online. Unfortunately I was kicked by Microsoft that day.

Today Microsoft announced that as of April 15th they discontinue Xbox LIVE service for original Xbox consoles and games (i.e.Halo 2). This includes Xbox v1 games being played on an Xbox 360.

You can read the official news post HERE.

and the best part of this all, is that in a half an hour it'll be the 17th and im still playing halo 2 online XD
To everyone who has played, enjoyed and supported Halo 2 for it's 5+ years of dominance on Xbox LIVE, we thank you! It is of course sad for any of us to accept the end of an era but it's been a good ride.

That said, mark your calendars now - on April 14th we're going to hit Halo 2 en masse for one last HOORAH, old school style.

It is sad to see a game that generated so many memories to be shot down. It is like seeing part of your life being taken away because microsoft deems it not nessasary any more. I would love to know their thinking on this one but Oh well good bye Halo 2. You will be missed Dearly....

I played Halo 2 on Xbox LIVE on Thursday, April 15. Bungie said they would give us something for Reach if we played. If I played on the 15, not the 14 when Bungie was playing, will I still get the thing for Reach?

The last standing Australian on Halo 2 after xbox v1 shutdown.

Jorge is hungarian or something like that (more than likely a new race, that a lot of cultures were combined into)

only if you had a golden ticket in your copy of halo 2 :)

If you don't have something Constructive to say, then by all means. SHUT UP and GO AWAY. tyvm

I'm a girl, get over it and move on.

Halo 2 Support!
I miss it so....

I curse its going down... This game is my most favored of them all and I don't think any of the new ones will ever replace it.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

Hey everyone i have a great idea for remembering halo 2, if anyone wants to know what it is message me =D


and i think there are 14 left, with 2 streams but both people are sleeping now.

Who wanna play Halo3 write back.

Hi,

when i get Halo2 (Pc-Ver) right now, is the Bungie.net Halo2 Profile status active? Or is this service disabled, too ? So that I can look in my Halo2 profile section.


greets indeed for replies

Nobody cares about anyone else's opinion - be it mine, yours, or a cult of angry star wars nerds - when they are enjoying what they enjoy.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

Stats have never been tracked for Halo 2 Vista.

I have a fun life I like Halo 3 & halo 3 ODST

So THAT'S why one of my games said Xbox live is not working on old games.

  • 05.04.2010 6:28 PM PDT

SBT's and mauler -blam!-s make me angry.

It was a spectacular ending to a spectacular game. But now that Halo 2's offline, it might be appropriate to remove the Halo 2 tab from the top of the friends list. Just something I noticed was lingering but had no use now that the game is offline. RIP Halo 2.
