Question
quick question. is there anyway possible to mod a ps2 to play halo? i want a ps2 but i want halo more than any game ever made. i would buy an xbox just for halo. any help would be helpful! if you dont know the answer is there anyplace where i could get the answer like a good online forum for questions like this? thanks!
No, there isn't because the Xbox game format is wildly different than the PS2 format. However, given the creativity of folks these days, I would not be surprised if someone figured out how to do it eventually. If you do not have extensive knowledge of computers and computer programming, it is doubtful that, should someone figure out how to reconfig the game and redistribute in a changed format, you would be able to do it anyway. As for forums which would outline that activity, I wouldn't be able to link to them at all because changing a copywrited game such as Halo2 in any way, shape, form, or fashion is highly illegal.
In short, do what everyone else does- buy both an Xbox and a PS2. You can get them both pretty cheap at resale and pawn shops.
Sorry I couldn't help you more!
Thanks!
Helen

Expertise
Ever since I played "Pong" in the early 80's, I've been a video game aficionado. I can answer hardware & games questions about PSP (PlayStation Portable), all PlayStation (1,2,& 3), Wii, Wii Fit, GameCube, Nintendo DS, Nintendo (NES), Super Nintendo, Gameboy/Gameboy Advance, and antiquated systems (ColecoVision, Atari, Sega, etc). I can answer hardware questions about all systems (including PS1 - PS3, Wii, NES, SNES, PSP, DS, GBA, GB, Xbox and Xbox 360). I can also answer PC game questions, especially CounterStrike: Source, Vampire: Bloodlines, Half-Life 1&2, Portal, Team Fortress 2, and all Sims & Sims 2 questions. I am ESPECIALLY knowledgeable in Square-Enix (formerly SquareSoft) games such as ALL the Final Fantasy games (I can even tell you really obscure things about these games). If I haven't played the game yet I will research it and help you find the answer, renting the game if necessary. I can even answer questions dealing with the consoles themselves (hardware questions). I cannot answer questions about Action Replay. I cannot answer questions about football, basketball, or wrestling sports games. I also have very limited knowledge about Xbox & Xbox 360 games unless they are cross-platform. If it is an independent game that has not been widely published and/or a game only released in some countries, I may not be able to help with it either (sadly!)
Experience
I currently am employed as a supervisor for a large, national video game retailer. I am also an expert here in games/roleplaying games, weddings, childbirth, and doulas. My husband is a computer programmer and one of the forefront coders for CounterStrike: Source scripts & mods. He has his own forums for coders/scripters at Mattie.Info. I have been an expert here since 2000 (under the name of Helen Chipman) and also volunteer on numerous other game-related websites and forums.
