Boo_ Boi

CertifiedPublicAssasin

OneEye
What are the flaws in it SubTemperate?

I must know...
FLY SPITTA
IT SUCKED!
PolkaTulk
a lot of things are super sweet, but some things did dissapoint me.
good thing - flying insect alien things
bad thing - the warthog sounds like a go-kart engine...

all in all though, it is halo 2... so of course it is sweet
Subtemperate
Sorry oneeye, the flaws i speak of are spoilers, and i refuse to spoil anything about the game for those playing it.

i suggest you kill yourself before the other members on here do it for you tongue.gif! but seriosuly, the game did not suck in the least. it was fantastic and theres nothing wrong with it at all. you think all good games suck
BurnSide
Seriously, saying Halo 2 sucks is pretty damn stupid in reality. I'd like to know why all those people said it was terrible. Just to stir the crap?

I haven't had the chance to make my reviews yet, but it does not suck, such statements are only worthy of immature children. tongue.gif
Subtemperate
You need to play it online...for the most fun part of the game.....
lego jedi
*yawns* is this game still around....its like SO yesterday, haha jk
enjoy the game y'all gunsmilie.gif gunsmilie.gif
Canadian Rottweiler
The ONLY crappy part is that it is too short.I finished it last night.It took about 12 hours to beat sad.gif I wish that it was longer.Other than that,it was amazing. grin2.gif grin2.gif grin2.gif
lego jedi
aint that what the on-line part is for ???? rolleyes.gif
Shakezulah
12 hours is pretty long for any FPS really when you think about it. but usualy theyre so fun that they go by extremely fast, and i can see how this game could have.
ChrisC098
I wasent dissapopointed till the very end. The end was rubbish. 9/10 though.
mr_halo

*wished they'd put the level from that demo from e3 in the game* crying.gif

cool.gif



OneEye
Gah! I have to wait until Sunday... Stupid...

Well, 12 hours is pretty good. Me and my cousin beat the first one (the first time we played it) in like four hours...

I am talking about the campaign.I finished 1 quarter by myself,then the other 3 quarters with a friend.I guess 12 hours is pretty good,but we had to wait like 2 years for this,and I wish that it was longer.But the multiplayer(against eachother) is awesome.That won't get old. grin2.gif
In one of the recent Xbox magazines,it said that e3 will release Halo 3 at the same time of Xbox 2 next summer. grin2.gif grin2.gif Is supposed to be a package.Halo 3 is supposed to be EVEN better.The graphics will be so good that the first Xbox won't be able to handle it. w00t.gif That is why it will probably be a package with Xbox 2. thumbup.gif clap.gif clap.gif clap.gif

BTW,e3 just released the fact that Bungie(maker of Halo)is partly done Halo 3. grin2.gif and that Microsoft is ready to release Xbox 2 in the summer of 2005 grin2.gif
Shakezulah
why are they bringing xbox 2 out after only a couple of years after xbox 1. thats dumb. besides, its gonna be almost the exact same thing as the regular one. its pointless to make it.
Monkyburd
Hmmm, xbox 2,halo 2, and halo 3 in a package next year? I was thinking of buying an xbox when halo 2 came out, but maybe I could wait another year... whistling2.gif

Xbox 2 will probably be a chip that you get installed into Xbox 1.They haven't said for sure yet though.Having this chip will double the graphics power. w00t.gif The game console industries(microsoft,Sony)say that within 5 years,gaming will no longer be animated.It will be actual things.Like real people and real environments in the game.Or if not,then the graphics will be so good that you can't tell the difference. grin2.gif grin2.gif grin2.gif

My friend bought Halo 2 on the weekend and finished it on normal mode in one day, he said it was far too short and not as good as he had expected, but he loves the multiplayer part!
Canadian Rottweiler
It was too short,but is still the best game,and the multiplayer is awesome too. grin2.gif

I'd like to see a link that talks about Halo 3, since Bungie themselves hasn't said anything about it.

I wouldn't be surprised, though. With the amount of momentum following the Halo community, there is no way Bungie nor Microsoft would let it stop at a sequel.

Here's to Halo 7. :)

To those that said that the ending was dissappointing. What did you expect? Did you really think that it was going to end differently than the way it did? I guess I hoped that they would, but only for a second. Then I realized just how much story Bungie has for their world, and how much they still have to tell.

Damn, I want the Halo Story Bible so badly now...

if its stupid to make an xbox2, then its stupid to make a ps3. And thats not true. so just because your not an xbox fan, dont hate. thumbsup.gif

Halo 2 was the best game ever except for the fact that it was too short and the flying insects were as annoying as hell but my fav weapon is the sentinel beam. grin2.gif

mr_halo

ok i now own this game...

and my vote hasn't changed...

although i'm not enjoying playing as the elite/arbiter

At 12:1 A.M. Nov 9-th, the biggest line I've ever seen in my
life! But know lots of people that do not have HALO2 yet, but for those
who do, please tell us what you think. I've got it, and I think
its the best shooter for XBOX. w00t.gif

HALO2 has a bunch more options and features than
HALO combat evolved, and the campaigns are a lot
better too. thumbsup.gif
If you've got XBOX live, I'll see you there.
Subtemperate
I think there are already at least 2 threads in the hobbies section devoted to halo 2.....

Of course. You can't have six hundred years of fiction created and not have it all organized in one spot.

Too bad it's guarded by a rabid pack of Blind Wolves...
Canadian Rottweiler
You can find stuff about Halo 3 and Xbox 2 on 'Xbox.com'.Or you can contact E3 and see what they have to say. grin2.gif

PS.Xbox.com is one of the best sites on the net,and has cheats for games,and so much more... grin2.gif

I know what you mean mr halo. I'm stuck on the first level (I just got it a few hours ago) with the "you know whats". They are so annoying. Is it just me, or is this game really hard right from the start for everyone else, too?
Canadian Rottweiler
It is quite hard at the start.I like the elite though.You can be invisible whenever you want,and you have more buddies. grin2.gif clap.gif clap.gif grin2.gif
Hawk7886
I found the controls a very drastic change from the first game.

Or maybe that's because I hadn't played a few weeks before that...

At any rate, I found my sensitivity at 3 when I first started playing. Now it's at 8 :D

Only a few dozen more games before I might push it up again...

Too bad the vertical sensitivity is really dulled down now. :(
I really wish they had created a system that had both vertical and lateral sensitivity changes.

??? blink.gif ??? I didn't catch that

How can you not catch something that is in writing...?

The more that I'm playing it, the worse it looks. The music is horrible compared to the first. The way the vehicles handle is just annoying, they don't flip as easy, and they just don't have the same type of driving. The scorpion tank's slower... I don't know if I like it as much anymore...
mr_halo

*mr_halo just completed halo 2*

ok i want halo 3.......NOW!!!! grin2.gif

The music is amazing. Probably the best part of the whole thing. I just don't appreciate how Marty allowed bands like Incubus and Breaking Benjamin to have their music placed into it.

The vehicle and driving engine is AMAZING. Boarding is also something that is amazingly cool. Although boosting with nearly all the covenant vehicles is kinda pointless, especially with the Wraith... I still haven't figured out what the point of the Banshee is.

As for the tank, I agree with you. They had to make it slower to compensate for its power in Multiplayer, while they didn't have to make it more powerful at all. It was fine to begin with.

The ending didn't live up to my amazingly high expectations that I have built up for over three years, and I don't know why they decided to go with that. They had enough time to either finish out a clear ending or just kill off a main character. Either way would've made me happy. The Warthog run in the first game? Perfect.

Anyways,Hawk,I agree with your most recent statement about the game.Remember the end of the second LOTR?It is like that.Just leaves you hanging there waiting for the third.They can't do anything major in part 2 of a long series.Halo 3 will be out next summer...

*thinks halo 2 and the whole story could of been concluded with just 2 more levels on earth at the end*

cool.gif

Canadian Rottweiler
It should have been longer with more levels.But I defenitely want there to be more Halo versions grin2.gif

i couldn't agree more...

i definantly think the last level should of had you playing as master chief...

cool.gif

Canadian Rottweiler
Would have made more sense to do that.The ending was just kinda sprung on ya.No warning,or final boss,or vital part of the game.Just regular fighting,then,the end disgust.gif Should have been twice as long.More like a RPG. original.gif
Subtemperate
The last level DOES have a boss. That guy you have to kill, isthe main bad guy in the game..... he is harder to kill then others....... He is basically a game boss. They say just as much on the dvd......

But saying that.... I hate the idea of bosses in this sort of game....
