Xbox Live dropping original Xbox game support

Sounds like fun Dpark.  Does this mean that eventually all original xbox games won't be Xbox Live compatible?

Did you even read his post?

You could even just read the title of the thread and know the answer to his question.

So what do you say guys? We have until April so I say sometime over spring break should work. I may be getting on sometime soon when I'm not busy just to check it out. The graphics will look antiquated but I think they at least run it progressive scan.

I always thought Halo 1 was the best game.  Maybe it was just because of the shock value since I'd never played a game like it before.  Even after all these years I find Halo 3 too busy, Halo 2 is foggy for me, but I had a blast playing the original.  I liked the levels a lot and had a lot of fun playing system link multiplayer on Blood Gorge and that ice level.

Halo Combat Evolved had the best single player, Halo 2 had the best multiplayer IMO. I didn't really like Halo 2's single player, especially the anticlimactic ending. Overall they were all well made games but the original was just so revolutionary. I remember the  crash landing onto Halo and I left the ship and Cortana told me to hide because the covenant were looking for me.I look above me and there is an alien ship circling. At the time it was incredible.

YES the second level.  That was one of my all time favorite video game moments.  When I looked down at the grass and actually saw blades of grass and looked at rocks and actually saw bumps, it mesmerized me.  I remember being bent over edge of the couch with my back killing me and clenching my teeth, sweating, not even pausing for a piss or a cigarette.  So much fun.  I'm guessing I don't remember much of Halo 2 because of the ending (which Ameer just reminded me how unspectacular it was) and Halo 3...I don't know.  The environments weren't doing it for me at all and the enemies changed.  They also took away the ZOOM ON THE PISTOL which was my favorite waepon in Halo 1 and quickly became a throw-away in the sequels.

But yeah Halo 1's single player experience is only rivaled by Bioshock and the 2 modern warfares.  I didn't like Fallout 3 at all.  Now make fun of me for it.

Oh and I couldn't for the life of me get into Fallout 3. I've put over 100 hours into Oblivion, it's easily in my top 5 games of all time. I had such high hopes for Fallout 3 being from Bethesda but it just didn't do it for me. I'm thinking the time I tried to play it may have had something to do with it. Either that or the bleak post apocalyptic environment that contrasts so starkly with the beautiful setting of Cyrodil. I'll probably end up trying to play it again because I know if I got into it I'd like it.

The Library was the worst level in video game history.

Fallout 3 is sitting on my shelf waiting for me to get bored and broke enough to play it.

Sounds good, won't be for the next couple of weeks because I'll be busy with school shit. And Erik I tried to play MW2 with you one time and you ignored me. I even joined the game you were in and played against you...You are Skoaleater right?  Buy Halo 2  if we all decide to play it would be epic.

I haven't played it in over 3 years, but it's about nostalgia. Who else is into nostalgia? Oh yeah, Jasoco...help me out here!

Ever notice how Erik just ducks the question of why he ignored someone and goes on about TVs?

It's manners, Friedland.

And Ameer I'm sure he was just jacking off.  Don't take it personally, he used to do it to me all the time.

Besides the fact that the fucking topic was about Microsoft dropping Xbox Live for original Xbox and Xbox games.

I don't think when I read the topic "Xbox Live dropping original Xbox game support", Who wants to play Halo 2?

Don't be a dipshit.

Why is Erik so angry?

You can create a silver account and get one month for free right?

No, I mean since you bought a new system if you create a silver account you get one month of gold for free.

Holy crap sorry dude, I guess I'm being sentimental or maybe it's because I really liked that game and I associate it with years gone? I won't be a dipshit but you shouldn't be a douche.

Halo 2's last hurrah with online play is going to be put on hold for me. I tried to download the maps to let me play on matchmaking and was unable to. I checked online and it turns out that they were taken off the server a couple of days ago. Microsoft decide to essentially pull the plug on the game while the servers are still going to be running for another couple of months...People are complaining so hopefully they will put the maps back up to allow people to play one last time. I'm sure if Bungie has something to say about it the maps will go back up temporarily.

The maps were put back up so I would recommend to anyone who still has Halo 2 to download them even if you never plan on playing because once they're gone, they're gone. I'm downloading them now Clark, and sometime soon I think we should arrange to play.
