You can buy it on Xbox Originals but even then it's just Halo 2 running off the hard drive. It is very much an Xbox game and will be losing it's live functionality tonight. ]]>Apr 14th 2010 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/No.]]>Apr 14th 2010 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 9:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/Apr 14th 2010 8:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/
I mean, wouldn't my current Live membership work?

No, you had to have been playing it before the notices were sent out last month.

Never got criteria for it, though. ]]>Apr 14th 2010 9:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/

I know it's a crappy consolation but you can still use xbox connect and play it online using your PC as a tunnel. ]]>Apr 14th 2010 9:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/

This is why consoles suck]]>Apr 15th 2010 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/14/reminder-original-xbox-games-lose-live-support-tonight-at-midni/
Don't mess with any of the gameplay or dynamics, just bring a simple live functionality to the games. Open lobbies are better than MM, they create much better and longer-lasting friendships (online).

I mean shit, I still talk to people I used to play Rainbow Six 3 and Ghost Recon with six or seven years ago.
