Subject: a proposal to microsft

xSOCx Genesis

i ask you micrsoft, what was possibly your most popular xbox title that had multiplayer on it? Halo 2, and it was a sad day when it was shut down, and xbconnect and xlink kai arent really good replacements, they just let us do systemlink basically, and not the actual Multiplayer experience. And on the last possible day that it was playable, it was flooded with populatin, it was huge, so, why get rid of the game entirely like it never happend. so this is what i propose that they should do.

Halo 2 and ODST are currently the only halo games to not be on games on demand, and halo 2 has no place on xbl at all right now.

We all know that microsoft wants a lot of money right? and they have all of the control over the halo series as well.

I propose they do this, make the halo 2 Multiplayer experience as an Arcade game, by doing this, it wont have campaign (yes i know a lot of people still like the campaign but itd make it a lot harder to be an arcade game, and if you need it that bad, get the vista or find an xbox original version)

now that would significantly reduce the size of the download and give it just the multiplayer part, which is what the majority of people want. Now the part i would hope they do is just give us all the maps at one time (unless they decide to be super greedy and make the maps as dlc and make us pay for them)

since it would be an arcade game and not an xbox original, it wouldnt have to go on those servers, but a whole new set of servers.

exactly, why do you think so many people want it back? and since they shut down xbox original servers, this is a great solution to it

These forums are not the "Beg to MS" forums. The only reason they were flooded on the last day was because people thought the shutdown was going to be like the PSU Demo shutdown, with a sudden outage. It wasn't, so you had the last man standing fest all the way to the end.


Halo 2 is currently the only game to not be on games on demand, and has no place on xbl at all right now.

There were 966 games released for the Xbox. Out of those, 478 work on the 360. And out of those, only 32 were released on GoD. So not all are on there.

I could say the same about all those people who want MP that bad.

"STOP MAKIN THREADS AND PLAY PC HURR DURR"

Thing is, an XBLA release would cost money to release and port, and then no one would play it. Remember CoD Classic? No one does because it didn't sell like BO or MW2. But if you want remakes 5 times a week, then you should join the SqEnix fandom. They remake crap 20000 times a day.


Oh, and one more thing:

If you never played in a while, it was "zOMG NOSTALGIA DONT SHUT DOWN MS!!!". But if you had been playing Original Xbox Live recently (like I had been), then it felt like just another day.

i wish i was able to discuss things about halo 2 w/o you trollin them all the time, and i meant to put the only halo game on there

but once again your dumb ass assumes thats what i was writing

cod classic wasnt as good because cod didnt hit popularity as hard as halo did, cod really went up in popularity when 4 came out, cods population wasnt a minority, but it wasnt as huge as halos was

CoD Classic came out as soon as MW2 came out. In fact, it was bundled with the Hardened and Prestige editions. So your point is again, invalid.

yes, but cod classic is still a remake of the original cod, and just because they shipped it with it doesnt mean it was good or that it would be played a whole lot

and besides most of the people who play cod now are ignorant little kids who think that they have to play the new ones, which is why cod is all but dead to me now, i rarely play onlone, and only got black ops for the zombies with friends

but its still the fact that it was a remake of a cod that wasnt as popular as it is now, and yes i know halo is also more popular now, but it was still more popular than cod was at that time

1. Halo is less popular then CoD right now. A remake wouldn't sell that well.

That's the Halo community outside of BNET too.

3. Also, why does your typing fail?

You really do not have a life. Psychopaths tend to focus on insignificant things and rail against them as if they are important.

Oh right, looks like the only comeback you have now is "You don't have a life".


Wow.

And another bad insult.

Post that to all the people who hate Halo 2 as well. After all, hating Halo 2 must mean you are more messed up then Shinji Ikari from Eva.

Nope, only to you. You should at least try to make sense, I don't hate H2.

Well, let me show you this. You guys deny it.

Then again, you guys are dumb anyway, so you are going to worship H2 anyway, then play reach even though you hate it.

FPS games are shooter games. To play them, you aim. When the game aims for you, there's no point in playing it.

I agree I was there on the last day and when the servers went down it was like part of me had be removed :(

I dont even bother responding to jacob anymore, he just trolls anyone who says they want halo 2 back in some way other than the vista version.

And dont come back at me with that get xbc/xlink kai bull -blam!-. Because that isnt what people are wanting exactly, they want the matchmaking experience.

And everytime you say something about liking Halo 2 on this forum, be sure that Jacob will be there to troll the living hell out of you.

Oh and to all your sayings that the game is over rated horse -blam!-, that is, once again your damn opinion. Who cares if you didn't like it as much as the rest of us, get over yourself and stop trolling these damn forums and let us hope for something that will obviously never affect you in your time on this Earth.

So you are telling me you want to wait 20 min for a game again, only to have to start matchmaking again? Some people are crazy these days.


I find this funny though.

You do know all these petition threads are against the rules. If the mods still came here (and not the ones who have double standards), it wouldn't look like a dump, as they would be locking them.
