Subject: Halo 2 Vista: Achievements still possible?

I don't have Halo 2 for PC (Vista), but I might get it. I have 3 questions:

(1) Is it still possible (as of today, April 4th, 2010) to get achievements in Halo 2 Vista?

(2) If I have an Xbox Live gold account, will earned Halo 2 Vista achievements be listed on my account?

(3) Will the answers to questions 1 & 2 change on April 15th, 2010 when Xbox Live support ends for original Xbox games (including Halo 2 Xbox)?

Every time I read something that I think is the stupidest thing ever and something can't replace it, something manages to replace it.

1) Yes

2) Yes

3) Fairly sure the answer is no. 75%

1- Yes i believe it is

2- Yes as it does for me

Ya its possible the only one I don't have is where you get the scarab gun and I'm pretty sure its really hard to do because I get the banshee but my computer won't start to load at a point and that is the point you are supposed to get on the banshee without it blowing up.

Hello! I'm a male!

Lets see Halo 2 for Windows Vista runs on the Games for Windows program. The update is going to stop all Xbox v1 games and Xbox v1 consoles from having xbox live support. That means the Games for Windows one will have the ability to play online still. That means all the achievements on Halo 2 for Windows Vista will work after April 15th, 2010 since it's not Halo 2 it's Halo 2 for Windows Vista. This explain it well enough for you?
