Subject: Bring it back.

Welcome to the last day of the rest of your life.

I can say, that when i first got Halo 2, I was delighted. Played it for ages. Got bored. Then it sat there, on a shelf, for 2 years. Got a 360. Got Xbox live. Then it was there on the shelf for 3 years straight.
I can truly say it was forgotton (for me) And when i heard about the shutdown, my dusty old box, opened up as quickly as a rabbit scurrying off the road. And all i can say is, I wish i hadnt been such a **** and just relived the past. I only got 30-40 games online. And im kicking myself for it. Is anyone else here after doing this?

Now on the topic of the title. I know there has been alot of threads with "MAKE IT COMPATIBLE" But i would have to say that, even if they had just left it for a little longer...
As in, look at all the players that went back, that decided that Halo 2 was a Legend. Dont Microsoft love their $?
Because to be honest i would say if this was left for longer, there would be alot more players.
And i think alot of you will agree with me on this.

Best Post Ever.

Cannot, and will not happen, sorry this is Microsofts doing, not Bungie. Go post this on Xbox.com, and just hope you get some kind of reaction, but even then, it will just get locked because they will tell you, it won't happen.

I know, but my point is that i just really wish they had left it for longer.

I'm inclined to agree with the people who are speculating that it may return as an arcade title, even if it's just in multiplayer form.

I hope so. But I doubt it'll be for the 360. The next xbox, maybe.

I just keep getting the feeling that this whole thing could be fixed with a simple patch... If the friends list "hard coded number" is truly the problem, why not release a patch for every original xbox game that does nothing more than change that number to something astronomically huge that will never be met?

Problem solved.

But they wont do that. =/

Wanted to be master of DO NOT WANT, but in latin to show he's clever.

They should release a Halo 2 multiplayer-only arcade game, that would give Microsoft some $, we all know that's what they want.

Exactly, personally I feel that this is nothing more than a money making scheme, coaxing people into accepting it with the talk of "new features". When in reality just trying to move the base to the likes of Halo Reach, Halo 3 and ODST

They probably will, as in they did for halo 1 right? (Not sure on that situation, havnt checked it out)

And yes. If microsoft are asked to make it their straight answer is yes. They love their $$

They just added halo 1 unchanged to xbox originals. No multiplayer was added.

I play for fun, I play for the team, and I play to win.

Considering only 32,000 people attended the send-off, and many times that play Halo 3 on a regular basis, I don't think anyone is in a rush to rerelease Halo 2's multiplayer.
