Bungie decided to shut off the Halo 2 servers a few months ago. They had it run for several years and it was losing popularity due to Halo 3, and Halo Reach. They finally shut the servers. But don't worry, you can still play on Vista.
yes the halo maps are free on xbox live.
Halo Wars does have Xbox live.
No, you do not need Xbox LIVE to play any original Xbox games. Not all original Xbox games can be played, but Halo and Halo 2 do not need LIVE to be played on the Xbox 360. I just now tried it with my LIVE unplugged and signed in to an offline account and it let me play both of them. The previous answer was a lie, obviously.
No they are two different platforms. A PC gamer will not be able to play with an xbox user and vice versa.
No you need the hard drive and xbox live to play xbox 1 games
They are from the pc, online xbox live account. What ever achievements you earn from that game goes to your xbox live account's gamerscore and be classified as "Halo 2: PC".
