Halo 2 for Life!

I hope so. I think most halo fans would want to have all halo games online.

Especially the game that had the best MP!

Do some research. It wasn't just Halo 2's online taken down, the ENTIRE ORIGINAL XBOX'S XBOX LIVE INFRASTRUCTURE WAS TAKEN DOWN.

Donuts > all other food

Microsoft is in charge of Xbox LIVE servers, bud.

And I doubt they'd want to turn it back on.

Bungie isn't turning on multiplayer for Halo anniversary. Anniversary uses Reach's multiplayer not a separate one. Anyway Microsoft decided to shut down live for original Xbox games so its probably not going to happen. Bungie really had nothing to do with it.

*have :)

I hope so too. It's unlikely, and i fear we have to wait for Halo 2's 10 year anniversary to get a remake.
But i cross my fingers that we are getting it sooner than that.

Just to make it clear....Bungie has absolutely nothing to do with Live, that is Microsoft's domain and the servers were either junked or reused for something else. There is no room where the old xbox1 servers are kept so even Microsoft cannot just flip a switch.

No, will never happen.

I believe you are a little confused, Sir. Bungie does not have rights to Xbox Live, nor their Halo franchise as well. Unfortunately they cannot do anything with it.

As for the above's remake idea, I disagree. There is way too much of a margin for screwing with Halo 2... That would ruin any kind of unique nostalgia the Grizzled Ancients have...

No doubt they will, the question is when.

it will never come back on the original halo 2 disk. it may come to arcade or a remake but will probably share the server with the pc players if so like shadow run. its up to 343 industries now for that.

Yeah hes right. All of orignal xbox live is gone, So even if Bungie wanted to put Halo 2 back on, I doubt microsoft would agree.
