yes


You will need a xbox 360 that has at least a 20gb hard drive on it. So if you do have the 4gb slim, you"ll have to upgrade.

Yes, as others have stated it's compatible. Although they took down the online servers awhile back, so you unfortunately won't be able to play multiplayer.

Yes, but it has some minor problems(for example the ghost image).

Yeah, there's another thread similar to this question, so if you have an official MS xbox 360 HDD then H2 will work. If it doesn't work, read the other thread.

However, the problem with the so called "ghost image" will sustain its exasperation as it is a problem with all of the 360's emulators.

Unfortunately, when playing on a 36o, Halo 2 will have this. The only thing that can be done about it is to restart to refresh it.

@ Scotty - So even the new 360's have that problem?

Unless there was an emulator update with the new Xbox slims that I did not know about, the problem will remain. I'll play Halo 2 the next time I can do it on a new Xbox to see if there still is an "apparition" at all, and prove or disprove this.

It's still on the slim. I've had it on all of my Xbox 360s besides my pro.
