To everyone who has played, enjoyed and supported Halo 2 for it's 5+ years of dominance on Xbox LIVE, we thank you! It is of course sad for any of us to accept the end of an era but it's been a good ride.
That said, mark your calendars now - on April 14th we're going to hit Halo 2 en masse for one last HOORAH, old school style.

I really miss playing you online Halo 2. I popped in my Halo 2 disc in my 360 a couple days ago and i have to tell you its sad and lonely on the maps with no one to play with online :( I hope you get re-released on the 360 soon.
