[kingcole436]

GUYS! I found out how to work this! THE FIRST time this failed for me, but I found something else, in your program files folder (maybe x86) There should be a folder just bellow Microsoft games saying Games for windows - LIVE or something like that, delete the folder, use this fix. THEN PLAY! Worked for me. If it doesn't work PM Me and ill give you a better tutorial.

[andivisweb]

not work :(

[kingcole436]

Uh, If ONLY microsoft could just make one little patch for us, Or even tell us how to fix it ourselves! And BTW this didn't work :I Le sigh...

[troganx1]

I Was able to run HALO 2 Without the crack for Windows 7.I Have a Legit purchased version,so it may acctully run on windows 7,Pirated Version can give you the "LIVE Gaming Failed to Initialize" Error.

[Andrivorius]

@troganx1 Lo compraste ORIGINAL? y cuando metiste el CD pa instalar le diste custom instal """la segunda pestañita""" o de una le tiraste a la primera que si mal no recuerdo dice """Installed windows vista""" no? no te puso problemas? jejejeje gracias por las dudillas :D

[troganx1]

@Andrivorius Sorry,I Can't speak spanish. And yes,it will work on Windows 7.don't just be a lazy ass and pirate it,buy the game.

[Andrivorius]

@troganx1 The original purchase? and when you entered the CD you gave pa install custom instal "" "second eyelash""" or a he threw the first one if I remember saying "" "Installed windows vista" ""No? not put you problems? thanks!! :D

[comedyboy209]

man i need a fukin key gen to play online

[Andrivorius]

@comedyboy209 ajajaja la unica manera es que lo compres original o sino matate la cabeza trantando de jugarlo por hamachi aunque eso da mucho pedo hacerlo!!! tu veraz

[GUSMANAWESOMENESS]

i just bought my new computer a few days ago and it has windows 7, I put an old copy of halo 2 i bought a few years back in, it just worked 0 problems! maybe it had to do with the re install option cos its new or something but IT WORKS 0 PROBLEMS! :D

[Andrivorius]

@GUSMANAWESOMENESS :O tenias el original y lo instalaste en el win 7 y te corrio sin problemas? oe esa ventana que te sale de instalacion cuando introduces el CD que le diste... le diste clic a la primera que dice algo como installled windows vista sino toi mal oque?

[RKO619SONC]

virus

[ApocalypticChaos96]

could you post a link on where you downloaded the game plz

[Andrivorius]

@ApocalypticChaos96 men hay muchos links sabes cual es el pedo y lo que mucho flogera hacer porque da mucha lora y mucho problema la parte de jugarlo ONLINE si te quieres quitar eso de encima mejor compralo ORIGINAL te saldra como a 40 dolares pero es mejor así....esto es evitarte un poconon de maricas errores que te salen...que el puto link ta roto, que uno de los archivos te salio dañado en fiiiiiiin, a eso encimado de descargar virus o que supuestamente descargues HALO y te salga otra cosa xD

[guitargod1355]

kinda off topic

but I love that song at the end

[IHaveTheMusicForYou]

-.-" am i the only fucking guy with this problem: i insert disc. blue screen opens. nothing happens.

[danusmc78]

I tried this, didnt work....ive tried literally everything, and all i know is anyone who says they have a fix is full of shit. Fucking Microsoft, biggest corporation in the world and they cant even get their own games to work. Typical.

[odin2free]

@danusmc78

its not windows lol its bungie

but hey what does microsoft know they just make money off of you to buy there products still

[danusmc78]

@odin2free Maybe youre right....still, I have no problems blaming Microsoft for just about everything that goes wrong in my life...
