What:
Today (11/17) Bungie Studios and Xbox Live are releasing a free mandatory
auto update for Halo 2
This download is free of charge as part of your Xbox Live membership.*
When:
The downloads will be available Thursday, November 17, 2004 after 3:00pm
ET/12:00pm PT.
You may have the download available before this time, but everyone will have
access to it by the time posted above.
If you don't see the download right away don't panic. Don't post that you
don't have it yet. It will show up shortly.
Where:
This auto update will be available to Xbox Live members in all countries
that Xbox Live is sold.
Details on the downloads:
This auto update will address the slow matchmaking issues that some members
are experiencing. In addition, this auto update provides a fix to the issue
where certain Television displays were clipping off the sides of the HUD.
Finally, this auto update should decrease the "Dirty Disc/Failed to load
map" errors that some members are experiencing.
That is all the information that I have at this time.

This update fixed the problem that I was having. The matches load much
faster now. It also enabled the previously unlockable "Foundation"
multi-player map.. I think that's the name of it.

but the game still ends the same way? Blake and the entire cast of
Blake's 7 get killed? Bush still gets elected (again)? OK.

It is not an Xbox update it is a Halo:2 update.
When you start Halo:2 and sign in at start-up you will be instructed that
there is an update required and it will do this for you automatically.
