As a die-hard halo 1 multiplayer fanatic using tunneling software, my question is simple, would it be possible to re-code halo 1 to make it Live ! compatible? Forgive my ignorance in respect of these matters.

Would any other Halo1 fans like to play Halo1 on Live! ? I play H2 and to be frank I find it childish, for me H1 multiplayer simply rocked, the degree of skill it took was awesome, and a match could be turned around with a well placed nade to blow a sniper rifle or rocket from it's spawn position right into your welcoming arms ala HEH. FFA's simply were awesome beautifully balanced maps and weapons, PR and mellee, what fun on Wizard etc, imagine an 8 v 8 ts or classic ctf on Sidewinder..ahhh fond memories....

Now I find myself getting pwned by kiddies camping with that damned sword on H2...and as for that plasma pistol and br combo..he who spots first wins, I absolutely refuse to use it...and pay dearly for it, but hey, I have principles..oh to have that H1 pistol back...tsk would take 'em...

Yea, halo 1 can be but bungie won't do it.

When most people would love it and consider it a step fowards.

Halo PC is only fun when there is no one online on XBC. Too much lag in Halo PC, but hey its better than Halo 2. I play Halo 1 on XBC everyday and have a blast every time. It never gets old because you can keep getting better and better. Getting better and better at Halo 2 is getting to the power weapons faster and faster.

Bungie can redo the network code for Halo 1 and put it on Live, but they just dont realize what they have. That game was a masterpiece, and it succeeded in all places that Halo 2 fell short: Multiplayer, single player, balanced weapons, fun maps.

In Halo 1 you could play whatever gametype you wanted on any map and it would be fun. However in Halo 2 they designed some maps specifically for assault or 1 flag so your stuck playing that boring crap because the map is no good for anything else.

Halo 1 was more fun, but bungie just doesnt care about it anymore.

IT's quite possible to recode for live. You just wouldn't ever be able to play it unless Bungie gave a server or you had a server to hold the bandwith... you couldn't play online unless XBL or Bungie made it happen..

But it is possible to recode the game to play on live
