It works on mine.. The only issue I've had with it is a random bug while you're playing, where the game will freeze for about half a second every few minutes or so.

You should be able to play it just fine..

You don't get an occasional freeze? It's really minor but I noticed it. (On splitscreen, btw, I haven't checked it with singleplayer.)

I sometimes get a glitch in halo 1 where the letters in the difficulty selection won't load for a few seconds...but it very rarely does that.

Yeah I have had only one problem with it. After you crash on the Halo, the Elite flying the Banshee will either jump out for no reason, or just crash and explode. The funny thing is, sometimes the Banshee will have no damage on it. But I sill can't fly it.

I haven't had any problems with either game on the 360, with either the surround or HD. I am assuming you've downloaded the emulators and such?

I don't know if it'll work, but this always makes everything run smooth when I have a disc problem. Take two pieces of scotch tape about an inch-and-a-half long. Put the strips of tape equal distances on either side of the hole in the disc.

Poor Visual Aid: I_IOI_I
I_I = tape O = hole in disc

Hope it works out for you.

You have to hook your 360 up to Live and download the emulator for it to work, just like you have to do with Halo 2.

I havent seen this for myself, nor do I own a 360 or have seen one outside any store (but i will after going to my gfs house sometime heheh) but ive heard several reports of glitches, freezes, unlikely cooperation and such. Im just glad my Xbox here is a good Xbox :)

No.. Halo 1 and Halo 2 came with the 360 as back-compatible games. There should be no need for that, if I remember correctly.. Anyway, as I've said, mine works fine, except for a small "freeze" bug I get every minute or so.

Hm. Weird. I've played Halo 2 single player, and Halo: CE on splitscreen/system link. Everything checks out fine. I suspect it having to do with owning an older 'box. I assume mine was the one after they recalled all units.

Even if you don't have an HDTV you shouldn't say that. It looks beautiful on my old TV (the one in my dorm room IS HD).

Halo: Combat Evolved works good too on my 360. Could be the disc? Maybe the lens is more sensitive to Xbox games.

That's not totally true I believe, 360s that were shipped later had more up to date emulators loaded. At my friend's house, one of them had to download and the other didn't.
