On April 15, 2010, we will discontinue the Xbox LIVE service for original Xbox games playable on Xbox v1 and Xbox 360. In our continuing efforts to evolve the service, we need to make changes to the LIVE service that are not compatible with original Xbox v1 games.

What does this change mean for you?
• It does not affect your ability to play original Xbox v1 games offline, but does remove LIVE connectivity and support for online multiplayer, leader boards, and other online features of these games.
• We realize that you are an avid Halo 2 fan. Unfortunately, with this change, you will not be able to play Halo 2 on Xbox LIVE going forward.
• Although it is difficult to say goodbye to Halo 2, the Halo franchise continues as the benchmark for multiplayer gaming in this generation with Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and soon Halo: Reach. On the Xbox 360, you will continue to have access to the LIVE service where you can enjoy hundreds of other LIVE-enabled games.

When will this change take effect?
• April 15, 2010.

What is Xbox LIVE doing for me?
• To thank you for being a loyal Xbox LIVE customer, we are giving you a free, three-month LIVE Gold membership and 400 Microsoft Points for you to use as you choose on Xbox LIVE.
• In addition, because you've been so loyal to Halo, we are inviting you to participate in the exclusive Halo: Reach Beta.

How do I get these offers?
• You will receive a token for 400 MS points. Check your Xbox LIVE account messages on the console. These points can be used for 365 days after you activate your token.
• We are extending your Gold membership by three months automatically. The extension will be directly reflected in your LIVE account.
• Finally, as the beta gets closer, you will receive an e-mail containing the code granting you access to the exclusive Halo: Reach Beta.

So I'll have an extra beta code for a special peep who won't be able to play due to no ODST...but who wouldn't want to get ODST to begin with? It's fun! gogogogogogo

I've had xbox live for over four years and have played halo 2 since day 1 and have not received this message. Wonder what the selection process entails.
But I have ODST, so doesn't matter to me

So what are the conditions to getting this code?

Not having played ODST online, and playing h2x online for a large amount of time...? But then again KM00 has odst...

Cant you see that hes lying to you... its what he does.

:[

I play h1 a lot :[

So what are the requirements for this? Xbox360 and proof you own Halo 2? I haven't gotten any notice...

Any word of this happening with Halo 1? Also, any way of knowing if I have played h2 on my xbox?


How can I contact bungie?

Halo 1 doesn't have live, what could they do? If you have played halo 2, it will show up on your bungie.net service record

Yeah, never played live on this account with h2x :[


Wish we could get it for having our HPC cd key's.

If that isn't standing by halo, I dont know what is.
