What doesn't:

• Split-screen performance: As with Halo CE, the split-screen frame-rate in Halo 2 is rather poor. In Anniversary mode we found performance improved on average compared to Halo CE but it never really feels particularly smooth. Unfortunately, the classic mode also suffers from performance issues this time meaning that there's no way to enjoy a full 60fps split-screen mode with Halo 2. It should also be noted that, while the field of view is wider than the original Xbox game, it still feels somewhat narrow compared to Halo CE Anniversary.

This is interesting. I played yesterday OG Halo 2 splitscreen with a friend on my 360 and the experience was very smooth.

Especially if non-anniversary plays better. Seems splitscreen wasn't really a focus when optimizing. Let's see what patches can and will change.

Edit: How did you play it on 360? Via emulator?
