| It is the emulation related lag, and controls | |

In Response To: Re: Bungie and the H2 Maps splitting MM (politics) (RVideo) : The downside for a lot of hardcore players is that the Original Xbox remains : the platform of choice for MLG purposes for various reasons (maybe 3Suns : can elaborate why this is so?). Pro Halo 2 gaming will never be done on anything but the hardware for which the game was originally programmed for the reasons of lag (caused by emulation), the controls are a little different, and so are the controllers. But the main reason is lag, the existence of which reps from Bungie themselves have admitted. As for the Halo 2, strong-arm-everyone-into-buying-a-360 map scandal, I have already voiced my opinion in this forum, about the ridiculousness of the whole proposition. I think the only way one can rationalize it so that it doesn't keep bringing out frustration is to say that Halo 2 support ended with the Map Pack and a few online updates. What is coming out now is a retro 360 Promotional package for Halo lovers. Those Halo 2 maps have nothing to do with Xbox Halo 2, other than gamers will need the original discs to utilize them.
