This is the average H2 Fanboy.

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

I don't think you played h2x shortly before the shutdown was announced.
It was a ghost town, with only 500-600 people on. And the outdated matchamaking system make it take longer for a match to be made.

I think Halo 2 should be put back on xbox live. I understand that the original xbox live was shut down but it was the #1 Original Xbox game for xbox live all time. A little update to the matchmaking system and Halo 2 would do fine. Besides those 500-600 people is more than the number of people on Perfect Dark Zero or about 100 other 360 games.

BLAWBLAWBLAWBLAW!!!

I know I would for sure, I'm tired of all this equipment, armor lock, jet pack, bull crap. I miss Halo 2!!! I could care less about the matchmaking system, I just want to be able to play customs again with my xbox live friends.

Halo 2 for Life!

These is false! You were mostly likly not in the right playlists, if you played ranked anything (other than TS) it was a ghost town, but I could always find a game of rumble pit training even at 5 in the morning every day. BTB all times except really early in the morning (and even than you could find them somtimes). Also Team swat was very active.

Basically BTB (almost all the time), Team swat (all the time), rumble pit training (all the time), TS ranked (almost all the time), Team snipers (somtimes). All other playlists were pretty much dead...

Usually pop. in the last 2 years was around 2000 players every 24 (unique players) with min at 1000 and max around 10,000 + on weekends.

It was no where near dead and I'm suprised you would say such things unless you didn't know the active playlists?

"500-600" where do you get these numbers? I tracked it as I played everyday for an hour (with weekends over 1 hour). If your talking about 24 hour your way off!

I found games really fast I dont know what your saying about the second point as well, it was a good matchmaking system if you know where the players were.
I think you just didn't know what the players were play. That was most likely your problem and you most likely didn't play it enough to know that it was active (if you know the things that people that play it all the time knew). Also if you had a friends list of active h2 players you could start customs at anytime (like I was able to).

Dont talk about what you dont fully understand please, it will avoid conflict. Say from your experince it was dead, because to me and many active players it was a very active and fun MP experince. Just because it doesn't apply to you doesn't mean it didn't exist!

Hell yes! I've wanted Halo 2 for a very long time, than about a month ago I finally found a copy for $2.50 and it's amazing! H2 has quite possibly the best Halo maps I've ever seen! I would be super mondo happy if Halo 2 got live again.

Sadly, the odds of it happening are very slim :(

Is this all you do? Troll around posting negativity and thinking you are better then others? You ain't anything get of this horse. 500 players? idiot, it had way more, were you playing halo 2 or halo 2 vista...

Halo 2 was the best game on the original Xbox. They should put it on games on demand and then bring back LIVE.
