Now you can download over Xbox Live! I’m excited because I never got to play much Halo1, but now I’ll have the chance! Here are all the details:

It’s been five years of giving you the leading online gaming and entertainment network. Now we’re taking it to the next level. As soon as you sign on to Xbox LIVE® after December 4, you’ll be prompted to start the new update. It will bring you features such as the original Xbox® game downloads and a chance to expand your profile. Your Xbox LIVE Update is automatic and free.

Sign on to Xbox LIVE this week and check out the new features:
