Halo 2 Now Supports Custom Soundtracks on 360
One of the side effects of the 360’s Spring Update is that all of the backwards compatible Xbox 1 games now have the ability to play custom soundtracks off of the Xbox 360. The custom soundtracks though are not fully selectable like on the 360.
“Music volume level persists between game / reboots” fix in the Spring Dashboard update, I found out purely by accident that you can now listen to music while playing XBOX 1 games on the XBOX 360. Just start up any ol’ playlist or a ripped CD and fire up Halo 2 or any other XBOX 1 game that suits your fancy. While the controls won’t be there when you hit the guide button, you can still control the action with your 360 remote (if you have one).”
I went ahead and tried the custom soundtrack method above out with Halo 2 on my 360 by picking a soundtrack off of my hard drive before putting the game in and it DOES work. I played two different ranked games and a custom game over Xbox Live and the soundtrack never turned off. This is great news for people that wanted to their own music on some of the Xbox 1 games that play on the 360.
