well, i was in a party with my friend the other day on xbl when one of his friends i didnt know, just joined. i kinda dropped out of conversation for a while when i heard my friend exclaim at how many games his friend had played when he viewed his 'compare games'. i viewed it too and i scrolled down 'forever' until i came across what said 'halo 2 (pc)'. i asked him about it and he said it was on his windows live account or something that also works with xbox live on pc but i couldnt really hear him as someone was yelling at family with his mic still on but before i could ask again he left.

so heres my question, if i am correct (that halo 2 has something to do with a live account or something), can i play halo 2 pc with this live account for pc thing and unlock the nameplate because of it?

i saw that only halo1 pc players could get thier nameplate but i never saw anything about only halo 2 xbox players getting thiers and not the other pc side.

No.

Bungie and Microsoft do not care about this game, I thought everyone knew that already, but then again, none of these companies even acknowledge it's existence, and they never even informed you that such a game even existed.

Halo 2 Vista was abandoned in 5 months after release.

Yeah, Shock pretty much sums it up. The Halo 2 nameplate is at the moment, only available to people who played Halo 2 matchmaking before the XBL shutoff. H2V doesn't count.

so, im guessing that (not even caring about nameplate) i cant pick up a copy somewhere and play online?

(now caring about nameplate) but even then if i play it with the same live account i have for xbox, wouldnt that show up in my game history on b.net thus unlocking nameplate?

sigh, all i needed was to get the h2 nameplate and i could have had the HALO nameplate.

1. You can buy a copy somewhere, ofcourse.

2. Even though Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live are both linked services, and you can even get achievements, however since Bungie claims they had nothing to do with this p.o.s game, they will do nothing.

They do not care if your gamertag has the achievements, even though they care about Marathon achievements.

3. The only way to get the nameplate is if you had a time travelling machine, so you could go into the past and play Halo 2 on Xbox Live.

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

Nameplates were only good for impressing 7 yr olds when reach came out.
