If it's just a straight port, no. If it had somewhat better graphics, achievements, online MP, etc,etc, then yes.

saying yes only because: obviously my actual original xbox game will not support acheivments, but if they re release Halo 2 with newer graphics & acheivments, I will eventually get it just like Halo CE. sigh I was hoping a couple years back (my 3rd game for 360 was Halo 2 that I bought) to downlaod the dlc (multiplayer maps) using old xbox live connect for Halo 2 before it went down.

Only if it had achievements and online multiplayer. I already have it on disk, so a straight port wouldn't interest me.

I would only get it if they did to it what they did to Halo 2.

If it is released with updated graphics and new Achievements then definitely. If not, than no. I got lucky and found the original Collecter's Edition of Halo 2 last year in an f.y.e. for like 5 bucks, a total steal.

I've got the PC version, which has achievements and online MP, so I'd only get an XBLA version if it had improved textures.

No, I already own the PC version of Halo 2 and the Console version, if I want the Multiplayer all I have to do is either play the PC version or Play Halo 3.

Halo 2 is my least favorite game in the series, and the original Xbox disc works in fullscreen on the 360 (unlike Halo CE) and so it would have to look significantly better and have some improvements to make me pony up the dough. But it would be nice to have the entire series in HD... so the collector in me would probably get it eventually. But man... I've played through it a few times and it's definately the low-point in the single-player Halo games.

Halo 2's multiplayer >>>>>>>> any other Halo's multiplayer. If they brought that back with the remake, and updated it technically, I would get it for sure.

Halo 2's campaign wasn't bad at all. 10x better than Reach's uninspired campaign, and better than Halo 3's. Halo 3 felt like a chore to get through. I don't know if I liked 2's campaign more than CE's though.

Don't see why it wouldn't. Halo 2 has always had Live support and the PC version has acheivements.

They stopped supporting XBL for original Xbox games back a while ago... and while I do have a gaming PC there's no way i'll ever play Halo 2 on it.

Why not? The PC version of Halo 2 is pretty good.

Im not a fan of piracy protection on PC games. And I dunno. Halo is the reason I got an Xbox. Halo 2 on PC just sounds weird.

Product keys, authentication, etc especially on GFWL. There has to be a better way.

I only see a problem with those things if you were using a pirate copy. If you've got a CD key, it doesn't take two minutes to enter it. I use GFWL with a few of my PC games. I've got no problems with the system. In fact, I wish more games would use it.

I have Halo 2 for original XBox. The only way I would buy it on XBL Arcade is if it's remastered in HD.

It actually shocks me how many here say it is the worst of the series....The casual community honestly likes Halo3 and Reach better than Halo2?? this baffles me...ANYWAY

I would buy an arcade realese of Halo2 at almost any price as long the online mp came back...Hopefully then MLG and gamebattles would bring it back for online competition so no one had to play the steaming pile that is Reach
