This is only possible Sketch if the maps are available to download (which they are not). I have the maps on my HD from last time Podtacular had a flashback event but they have been deemed damaged. Oh wait, I can't re-download them! Don't know if it is you or MS but please get the maps put back up so we can play.

Thanks a ton!

Armor Lock vs. Top Speed, Approaching Ghost = Super Awesome!

I normally agree to all Xbox staff plans and changes, but they really screwed on this one, thats not just sad, it sucks and is pointless. WTF, so, i wont be able to use the online features of my original xbox games? wtf?

Love All, Trust A Few, Do Wrong To None; Be Able For Thine Enemy Rather In Power Than Use; And Keep Thy Friend Under Thine Own Life's Key; Be Checked For Silence, But Never Taxed For Speech

This truly is a sad day for us all. We will miss you original Xbox Live gaming. May you rest peacefully and haunt our everlasting memories.

I'm a similar boat, I'm missing some of the maps (not all for some reason, can't remember why =S) but the result is all I can play is hard core, rumble pit and big team...

Please get the maps online Bungie! =(

I also want to play Halo 2 online a few more times, but I cant re-download the map packs necessary to play. Are a lot of other people having this problem? Every time I try I get an error message that says something along the lines of "Could not download content list. Please try again later."

  • 02.05.2010 6:36 PM PDT

You can still download all the maps I just did a few days ago. So many memories........just one day for halo 2s death? Ill be on way more than that hope you guys are to, maybe it wont take as long to find a match

  • 02.05.2010 6:38 PM PDT

Why cant they make H2 DLC? They did for HCE and Marathon...I hope they do, Im sure its not that difficult for Bungie to do.

WTF I don't play halo 2 anymore because my disk got scratched and doesn't work but halo 2 is m favorite halo game.

  • 02.05.2010 6:53 PM PDT

will online still work for halo 2 vista?

Shocking. It's hard to believe that Halo 2 will be no longer playable on Xbox LIVE.

I'm sad to it go, it was an amazing online game! The good side to Microsoft shutting down Halo 2's online community is, level 44-50 (rank symbol) boosting cheaters will be shut down for good.

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Yes. H2V uses gfwl, not original xbl

Bungie should pull a Sony and release a Halo 1/2 pack with updated graphics for the Xbox 360 ala God of War.

  • 02.05.2010 7:22 PM PDT

Ah, someone leaked. Now to find the leak and.... plug it.
With justice.

I use coup 5
Never Played halo 1 = Invalid opinion
Bloom isn't whats broken, its your idea of what good is and your opinion
Thats like saying uber nerf armor lock because like 20 percent of the community hates it. Oh wait..................

you know rereleasing for the 360 would be kind of cool. I have also been seeing posts about halo2vista still working, if so then i can asume that halo 1 pc will still work since it uses gamespy and the bungie server model, but do correct me if im wrong.

also anyone who knows what bungie is doing to see halo 2 off let me know. I will totaly be participating!

Will be a sad day. Those were good days when it satisfied me to hear MLGers whine about the "noob combo".

Good times.....good times.

I'm expecting we'll see a lawsuit here. I'll sign any petition you guys can find. I'd make one myself, but I'd quickly make it to the point of "How do I shot web?" and give up.

So there is a problem. I can't play matchmaking because it says my maps that I've had downloaded are damage, so when I go to download them they are all gone. So unless the maps are put back up I can't play in any playlists at all.

Well, that about covers it.

So many good memories with Halo 2, I might actually shed a tear before it's shutdown. I love Halo 3, but I've had no where near as good times as Halo 2. Goodbye Halo 2, you will be surely missed.

If possible Bungie, do you think that you can add a new playlist to Halo 2 matchmaking before the plug is pulled? Like bringing back all the launch date playlists, even head to head. (Stupid I know but still)

  • 02.05.2010 8:44 PM PDT

Man, I can't believe it's been 5 years. The whole reason I got a xbox live account was for Halo 2. I guess I'll have to spend the next couple months getting my last Halo 2 fix.

XBC is makin a come back =]

I'm glad we still have xlink kai. :p
This kinda ticks me off a lot, though. Better get some DLC...

I would like to invite you to the most active group there is, Black Water Ops. Boasting over 4000 members this is one of the fastest growing groups and proven to be one of the most active Bnet groups. An amazing experience awaits you with weekly game nights, photo contests, and forging contests. This is one decision you won't regret.

What the fu(k!

Why is Microsoft being so fu(king h0mO?

And yeah, I think lots of people are having problems re-downloading the H2 maps, as well as myself.
