Throughout the past week, a small group of dedicated Halo 2 players kept their Xbox's on so that they could enjoy the game for a while longer. (As long as we don't turn off our Xbox's, or lose connection, we can stay online. Our Xbox's have been on for nearly 13 days straight) Each day the amount of people decreased, at a rapid rate.

A lot of us became really good friends, and it's almost like we're family now.
For a while, we had 'T0 Be Continued' Live streaming all of our games, until her Xbox regrettably froze while playing custom games. Then, 'Mr7ankjump' did a live stream, but he lagged out only 4 hours later.

There is still a Live stream that is sometimes going on throughout the day.

Z0mbie Stench's Live Stream
Though it is recorded through a web cam, it is the best she could do.

xxBooker Dxx's Live stream
If he can figure out how to get his capture card to work, this live stream may be up later, also.

We will keep playing until we are all forcibly removed. It could be by Microsoft, Bungie, our Xbox's overheating, or just lagging out. Not for competition, not for a prize, but for the love, and memory of Halo 2.

I want to thank everyone that I've played with in the past few days, this is by far my favorite memory in all my gaming history.

Right now there are only 13 players online, here is a list of our names:
Agent Windex
APACHE N4SIR
sherlok 1
SieferSword
Rob2D
z0mbie stench
Lord Odysseus11
xxMAKDADYxx
H2o Shoagie
xxBooker Dxx
DirtyCajun
AForeignObject
HiredN00bs

I will keep this list updated, until it's down to 0.

I was just imagining being in their position, and I can say openly that if I was any one of these guys..

.. I would definitely shed a few tears when I finally got disconnected.

No, I would shed many tears.

And then a few more.

I was just watching them there. The main player is a bit wild with the BR, shots flying everywhere.

A bit of nostalgia though, everything looks so simple on-screen. The FPS genre has really evolved.

Sucks that they can't play online anymore, I prefer Halo 2 to Halo 3.

Maybe they could bundle all of the Halo 2 MP levels into DLC for Halo Reach or Halo ODST. That could ease some of the pain. Other than that, maybe someone should organize monthly Halo 2 Lan events.

Also, I recall when Mario Kart DD came out, there were some innovative gamers that managed to get it to work online. If people just used whatever technique they used, online Halo 2 could live on, I guess.

There's actually a system called XBC that allows you to play both Halo and Halo 2 online. Although it requires a router and PC. The lag is also pretty bad, especially when the distances get large but it is possible.
