Is it possible to play halo 2 on the new black xbox 360? I heard that it works if you have a hard drive, but i want to find out if that was true before i bought it.

Yes it is true you can play it on any Xbox 360 as far as I am aware.

Just a heads up for you though: there is no online multiplayer any more for H2.

Enjoy the classic game.

"Where ere thou hast been, here or in yon world manifest? Canst thou tell what is, or what was, or what is to come? No thing shall last. Yet there are some things that will never change. History is written in blood, yet are battles really lost on the battlefield? Canst thou tell me where thou comest, and where thou goest, and what is, or what was, or what will be? For everything remains, AS IT NEVER WAS."

It's possible but there are some graphical issues, such as "ghosting," where the background image will be frozen into the HUD.

It's one of the main reasons I support a Halo 2 remake, preferably before the new console releases.

dude but like halo 2 is so hard to find now unless you go on ebay or amazon

You can't play online with Halo 2 anymore, but go ahead and enjoy the best Halo campaign!

Good. The only reason im getting it is so i can have played all the halo campaigns by the time halo 4 comes out.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

You can play it, just not online.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I can play it on my Xbox 360 Pro.

Matter of a fact, I was playing it last night on Legendary.

You do need a hard drive for Xbox Original games. BTW there is no more Halo 2 online in case you didn't get the memo.

Do you have a problem with the image ghosting? I've been trying to find ways to solve this.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

That's an unfortunate side effect of playing it on 360 I'm afraid.

I love Halo and video games. I started a business called "70MGame", I setup LAN events, tournaments, and Midnight Launch Events. Check us out in the link below.

I grew up playing Halo CE and have never stopped loving it since. I have one of the biggest Halo collections you will ever see with the crown jewels being life size statues of Master Chief, Kat, and Emile. Im hoping to have the entire Noble Team soon as well as other Halo statues

It does work but there is a tab bit of lag. The game runs better on the original xbox. If you want to get it, Id get it for PC, you can link your tag and get achievements as well. No to mention you can still play it online for PC

judging by the 11th terminal they are probably going to remake halo 2, but it is not to on a new console because unlike the original xbox the xbox 360 is designed so that live can be upgraded, in other words it may be a loooong time before there any such thing as an "xbox 720" which is a rumor that is not true
in any way.

I'm positive image ghosting only happens when you keep loading/reloading a game over and over again.

Hey.

Eh, image ghosting never really bothered me. If it every does, I just switch to the PC version.

Edit: Image ghosting is very common to run into on the Xbox 360 while playing campaign, it's usually not bad, but it's hard to avoid.

he could but the few people who play that are really good. If you go through XBC, your better off hosting a LAN event, with original Xboxes since 360's dont work with XBC, and have everyone join your game. It will work that way

it works on every version of windows except windows xp
