Halo 2 was disconnected because they already have too many halo game servers to look out for. That and original xbox live was shutting down everything.
The third reason is that they are making a halo 2 remake
Every fucking thing has to be gone, in 2003, we made music without studios, TV without problems, GAMES WITHOUT THE BULLSHIT...Now, everything we know and loved in gaming is gone, my gamertag: HexHydra, friend me if you want to save the Halo 3 Servers.
Halo 2 for PC is just as good! I just picked it up recently for $20 and Matchmaking still works! I have a FiOS 35/35 Line and running a dedicated server. If you got a 360 USB Controller then you are all set. LONG LIVE HALO 2!!!!!!
@117sonicfan cause 100 friends where still playing halo 2 on 2009 so major nelson desded to shut down old xbox live on april 16 2010 a bunch of death thrents wants to still play halo 2 and no one wants old xbox shut down
My favrite part of halo2 online is when you were in matchmaking, there would always be the did you know? funny tips bar when your there. :) good times.. i really miss halo2 :(
@zachmanrulez haha lol its called xbconnect Xbox original games over the internet its weird these like usually 10 to 25 people playing halo 2 alone on there...Xbox multiplayer is back
Yea, I'm still a Halo PC player, How long is that ? 10 years? Yeah, and it's still up, Microsoft can suck my dick because now I have to go through the trouble of using Xbox Connect just to play Halo 2 online again...
the game was fun but nothing can last forever but as i think so this is like the godfather of all video games it will defianly go down in history as the best in my opinion ps good time playing with everyone
@2wakka4dis the only way you can ever play halo 2 online again is on the PC version, which isn't really quite as fun as the 360 one. It's also full of hackers.
My understanding was that if you had an account that had any Halo 2 games played on it at any time, then you will get some kind of unlockable armor or something like that. Not sure though, Bungie hasn't mentioned it in a while. Hope this helped!
XBCONNECT has saved the Day!

@HydraWolf1 Soft\Hard mod your Xbox Original or use xbconnect if you still wanna play online... were gonna show Microsoft who is the boss! Woot Woot!
Or if you don't wanna do that get it for Windows and use a USB controller.

Oh wait, I must be wrong because I see alot of people use Windows XP. You need Vista or 7 to play Halo 2.
