by keeping it on a console it would be more of a direct port if there was an update. It wouldnt be changing platforms as in the case of halo 2 vista.
They'll need to make it do several things before it'll be a direct port.
1. Support ATI graphics, because Xbox 1 was based on Nvidia.
2. Support the ATI Tri-core CPU in the Xbox 360.
3. Support HDD install, meaning don't install maps in 2 locations.
4. Support 360 file saving architecture.
5. Support Widescreen and higher resolutions.
6. Recreate and change the game executable from xbe (xbox1), to xex (360) format.
7. Support 360 Integration, which includes online, dashboard etc.
8. remove old and useless coding, like the Y menu, and other stuff.
Optional and not direct port features
1. Fix the havok physics implementation.
2. Cross-platform with PC. Microsoft planned Halo 2 PC to be cross-platform with Halo 2 Xbox, why not finish the job.
