Halo 2 Decompilation
Category: Games & game engines · Type: Reconstruction
Target: Halo 2 (original Xbox) · C / C++
A work-in-progress matching decompilation of the original Xbox Halo 2 retail executable into readable C/C++, with byte checks against the period compiler. Includes recreated Havok physics linked into the game; Xbox SDK/Bink are not decompiled.
Relationship
Independent reimplementation
Evidence scope
The upstream README and LEGAL/PROVENANCE docs describe matching Xbox Halo 2 decompilation, state no assets/SDK/XBE are shipped, and report partial function/byte match progress. No REA involvement is claimed.
Know before you try
BYO legally obtained disc/data. Period Microsoft Xbox compiler required for byte checks; Xbox SDK and Bink are out of scope. Not a playable remake by itself. We have not independently tested it.
Status
