Do you think microsoft will have its own servers for halo 2 and if so will they charge? If they do im going to be pissed of because we're already going to be paying for xbox live. it think it will be microsoft obligation to have at least 3 or 4 32 palyer servers 24 hrs a day like on battlefield where companies rent out a server so they can advertise in the beggining of the game with sentences like "go to blagbgops.com" or "this server is sponsored by Linksys wireless routers" that way the player dont get charged and Micorsoft can earn some dough because they let companies advertise.

Ps Please not with voice messages or anything that would suck maybe they should put them on the bill boards of any multiplayer levels on earth city

I'd think Microsoft would have a few servers of its own running 24/7. I think the Xbox Live fee covers the server maintanence. I know most PC FPS games have free servers. The only time I think a company charges fees for servers is if it is a "premium server" or in a MMORPG.

Halo 2 is going to be XBL's flagship title. I don't think they'd mess it up by adding a second fee to it. Simple as that. They want a bunch of people to get XBL, and Halo 2 will woo many to it, who would probably be turned off by an extra H2 fee.

They will not charge an extra fee to play Halo 2.
