i went and bought Halo 2 today so i could play it in 720p but the graphics look crap, i dont think its running at the right resolution because it looks like 480p
is there something i have to change to make it run correctly?

what kind of setup you got, make sure to flip the hdtv switch on the connector to the xbox and in the dashboard make sure to change it to the correct settings

i have a 32" LG HDTV and its all set to 720p, all my 360 games look great in 720p but Halo2 looks low res and pixelated

was there something i should have downloaded? i didnt get prompted to download any kind or BC update, it looks like ther is no anti-aliasing

try deleting all your halo stuff off your hard drive or memory card, then make sure all the settings are correct like the switch i know that fucked me off before when i first got my 360 the saturday before launch date bc i didn't know there was a little switch

i just found out that its because i dont have the latest BC update, just my luck that i get a game that needs it on the day they take live down for maintanence

my only problem with Halo 2 on the 360 is the game gets very sluggish and slow when playing online.

my only problem with halo 2 is with backwash is when i see 3 or more enemies at the same screen the frames per second goes down to 1 or 2

Same here.  Halo 2 looks like crap on the 360.   Don't even try playing split screen.  It splits left and right instead of top and bottom.  Couple that with horrible graphics and you can forget sniping or anything else that needs fast reflexes.

Haven't tried it on the 360 yet, but on xbox 1 changing the video display from normal/letterbox/widescreen changes the vetical/horizontal in H2. When I first got H2 my friend and I play it at my house and then the next day it was verticle on his screen. Took an hour or so to figure out. But not sure if the 360 will do it though.

I play halo 2 using the vga cable. If you put the resolution on anything but the lowest it will split it vertically. It will be split horizontal on the lowest setting. Not sure if it works the same with the component cables.
