Because Xbox Live wasn't around back then.

However, you could do (rather limited) online play with Xbox Connect.

I do agree with you. But unfortunately, it's been discussed before and it will be discussed again, but the answer will always remain the same - not likely going to happen, dude.

Or buy Halo:PC. IMO keyboard+mouse>controller. But you can use XBC. I've had fairly good luck with it. Just don't join games with a ping over 100 and it hardly lags. At least on my connection it doesn't. There is no voice chat but I suppose you could use xfire for that. But yeah one year after Halo's release Microsoft introduced XBL. And Bungie won't do anything to Halo and the only things they do for Halo 2 are make the playlists worse and worse because they're killing off Halo 2 to hype up Halo 3.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

it was never intended to go live because it was a launch game for the xbox, and at that time they had not yet finalized how xbl was going to work. it is possible to make it xbl able but it would involve the recoding (remaking) of the game and it would need to be re-sold. when you consider how many people would actually buy it (let's face it those loyal to halo2 outwieght those who are loyal the halo) and the fact that bungie is busy, it is something that would proboably not happen.

if it did happen they would need to make minute changes to the game so that it would be played as regualrily as other xbl titles. the reason halo 2 is so damn popular is because the MP is dummed down when compared to halo, it's easier to pick up and play. if the game is to difficult for people it will not be played, and that is another factor that would be considered (and proboably already has been) before it is re-done.
