Okay. I KNOW that Halo 2 Matchmaking was shut down, but does this mean that you cannot still play with your friends in online Custom Games? I was just wondering? Lol

Nope, sorry. Custom Games and Matchmaking both got the boot once Xbox Live v1 was shut off for original Xbox games. You could always play Split Screen with your friends or hook up some TV's and Xbox's to enjoy System Link games.

If I had a Rocket Launcher, I'd make somebody pay.

You could get the PC version, shouldn't be too hard to find for a good price.

You can get Halo 2 PC for 10 bucks on Amazon. If your friends have it, you might be able to do custom games and matchmaking with them. You can get achievements too!

I'm going to use xbconnect once I get my xbox on open nat. I can't play it on PC, I'm still running XP.

Just realized XP makes a great smiley face, lol.

Well unless you have a computer that is 10 years old, I can't see why you shouldn't be able to run Halo 2 on PC. Only thing that might prevent is that you can't run it on Windows XP.

Xbox connect is a great way to play Halo 2 online again.
