No, we are adding Vista-specific features to the game that will not be compatible with the original Xbox version. We wanted the game to be the best it could be on Windows Vista and did not want to be limited by backwards compatibility with the Xbox version. If you have a friend who is playing on the Xbox you will be able to invite them to your game on Windows Vista, or send them messages, just like you can today on the Xbox 360.

What does this mean? Will we be able to play some games with xbox players, or am I just reading this wrong?

That is a little confusing but what I think he means is that while he is playing his Xbox he will get a popup on the TV for the invite. He then needs to go to his computer and accept the invite to launch Halo2Vista and jion the game. Xbox players will receive messages and invites but not be able to jion the game from the Xbox.

No, bungie already said that the new features and other stuff wouldn't work with with the x-box. Has to do with writing a code that would take forever to make.
