Default halo problem

Right this is my problem i got halo2 back the other day and cant get it working on live. the single player works fine and my connection is grand but i cant get into a game with it. it goes up to the point of searching for a game then just sits there and never connects with one. and idea?

are you sure your connection is alright?? that is the only reason i can think of that it wouldnt connect to a game.......you have all the maps other wise it wouldnt even let you start the countdown......but i really dont know about that one..

This is strange. What stage does it get to? Stage 1 is finding game, stage 2 is finding players....

Try connecting to someone playing a custom game, or get shane to make one and you join.

Have you tried different Gametypes? Maybe it's just really low traffic on a specific one. You never know!

See, I thought that as your account not being 18 years+ but that usually doesn't let you sign into live, at all on Halo 2...

It's a long shot, but you may aswell try. Go to the Settings blade on 360 dashboard, then Parental settings then Xbox Live controls...make sure backwards compatibility is enabled.
