@@punny88 I was all in for being one of the last people still playing Halo 2 online. Those dreams went crashing down when my Dad noticed it running while I was doing other stuff and he forced me to turn off my 360, haha. Got a Halo Reach Beta code, a special service tag in Reach, and one month of Xbox Live from Microsoft as a commemoration for being one of the last players! Maybe I'll post that email from Microsoft on the Halo subreddit if I find it. Thanks for posting this informative video!

Hello from Australia. It's been a whiled ride, lots of work has gone into this, and all 169 other games insignia currently support. Halo 2 so far has been the hardest game to figure out, but the team did it, and it opens the doors for even more games to come. 2024 is going to be one hell of a year to be an og xbox fan. We look forward to seeing you all there to play halo 2 this weekend. (I'm "just" a tester and was happy to just be there and help out any way I could)

I'm really excited! I've been playing H2 on MCC the last little while and it's been a ton of fun, but I'm hoping that the OG servers coming back online will make it more enjoyable to play. MCC is all well and good, but there's some annoying issues with the culture of those playing it, plus I just want the original menus back in all their glory.

Probably not. Insignia isn't compatible with the CXBX-R emulator (currently), and I'm not sure how Halo 2 even runs on that one. For the Xemu emulator, Halo 2 runs pretty bad. Xemu is also quite hungry for a high end PC. You can give it a try, but you might not have a good time. Best to stick to real hardware for Halo 2 at the moment. If you can find an original Xbox for cheap, getting set up with Insignia is easier than ever thanks to what was mentioned at the end of the video (assuming the Xbox isn't modded). I believe Halo 3 and Reach already have their servers restored by the community.
