Subject: Need help with an odd glitch.

Going to make this short, for once. I have recently bought a new copy of Halo 2, as my old one doesn't work, and hasn't worked in a few months. I've been noticing these blue blurs that are seemingly the images of previous frames. Almost like the TV lagging. Any help with this? I can't recall this ever happening to me before.

Man, grammar errors every where.

Look up 'H2 ghost images'.

Workarounds include:

-going back to dashboard
-adjusting display settings (apparently only works for HD tv)

I think I'll try changing the display settings, as the first link gives me an error. It's nice to know my disc isn't (or at least appears to be) in bad repair.

This is due to the 360 emulation not being perfect. The only fixes are dashboarding as far as I'm aware. It's very annoying yes but hopefully some of the aforementioned fixes will help.

Weird, the first link was displaying at the time I posted that... seems I'm being stalked. :o

Or you can play Halo 2 on the old xbox and you won't have the ghost images. Either that or you could always just get used to them.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Was this the reason why Backwash was removed from Halo 2 Matchmaking?

FFA slayer on splitscreen is also pretty fun, but I think there are just better maps out there and that's why it's not very popular.

Backwash was one of my favourite maps. It was pretty popular in the early days but when the 360 came round with the emulation problems, Bungie removed it. It's also the only map to have ever been removed from Halo 2 matchmaking.
