Halo Rules

I think that Halo 2 is pretty basic because all you do is blow aliens up, but it is still a highly addictive game. If you like to play first person shooters and you like blowing up aliens than this is the game for you.

Solid shooter, but too one dimensional

This game is fun to play online (when you find the right crowd to play with that is!) for awhile. But even that gets a bit old as you play through the same levels for the 1,000,000 time.

Campaign mode is a huge dissappointment. You can tell that all the focus was put into the online part when in development. The campaign mode felt like it was thrown on at the last minute. You couldn't be the star of the show most of the time which was a huge letdown. Think playing a Metroid game without being Samus or a Zelda game without you being Link. You have to give your franchise hero a bit more playing time when that is what people are buying your game for. Halo fans want to be MC not some side character for most of the game.

I'd honestly suggest Half Life 2 over this game. Mostly because you get a game that has great online and a great single player campaign.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT,EXCELLENT, (ETC)

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT,EXCELLENT, (ETC). THIS IS TRUELY AN AMAZING GAME. WITH OVER 30 WEAPONS, 10 VEHICLES, AND 15 MISSIONS, PLUS ONLINE SUPPORT, THIS IS AN AWESOME GAME, MIGHT BE RECORDED IN HISTORY AS ONE OF THE BEST EVER.

PROS:

EVERYTHING

CONS:

NOTHING

A highly disappointing sequel

HALO 2, perhaps the most over hyped sequel of all time.

The game fails to deliver on anywhere near the level the first HALO did.

Sure, it adds a few nice features but it takes away far more and some of the old bugs are still there.

Items can still slide under others and mysteriously vanish. Marines now sometimes vanish even in mid combat, and not by being destroyed.

There is a far shorter campaign game than before.

There are a lot more times where you just sit and watch an uninteruptable cut scene.

Some weapons have minor improvements. The Battle Rifle is arguably superior to that Assault Rifle due to the scope and the small burst fire, but for serious action it is deficient to even the old AR.

The pistol has had it's scope removed and is weaker than before, as is the shotgun, and with lower ammo capacity as well.

The rocket launcher has a virtually useless tracking feature which turns so poorly it only makes things worse.

Dual weapons can be marginally fun but you lose the use of grenades, which are still ridiculously limited to 4 of each type as if your suit had special pockets for each type or something lame like that.

Vehicles are nice in a way now that they are all destroyable but they took away the damage indicator so you now have to guess from the appearance, which you rarely see well enough.

To sum up, the game seems more like an advertisement for HALO 3 or XBOX live than anything else.

this is one game that you know I am not allowed to play. because of all the guns. in this game you are halo and you have a lot of guns. I think the levels are hard in this game and my friend play sometime and let me watch him. let me watch him play somtime and watch him shoot the guns and sometime he let me chose what gun to shoot. My favorite is the blue one because it is the biggest and man it shoot so hard and good to see!

I think this is a really good game, and i enjoy it. The only bad bit is when halo changes into an alien. The best bit is when you get to go on a different level, it is exciting.

overal, A brilliant game.

Buy it!

Extremely fun, addictive game

Hey if youre a gamer with an xbox and debating whether to buy this or not prepare to be slapped for this is the best FPS ever!!! If you have xbox live stop reading this review and go buy it now!!! But...on to the game, this game has an awesome campaign but it could get old after you beat it. But the multi-player is the flat-out the best of this game. After you get xbox live if you don't have it yet bust out the caffeine and sugar cause this can keep you for days on end! BUY THIS NOW BUY THIS NOW BUY THIS NOW!! I bought my beloved xbox just for this...believe me this is a system seller. The controls are great and the storyline's ok but the multi-player is the SHIZZZZNITTE! Just watch out for standbyers and modders on xbox live! If you get this add me im Smiling Bob117

excellent, but not perfect!!!

I got this game on the first day. I was so excited since i loved the first one (except for the final driving mission). It's gameplaywise it has really evolved, which is a good thing. You can now jack the covenant vehicles with "right timing". Also they got rid of the health meter, another good thing. All in all i love it. But that doasn't mean it's perfect. Let's move on ahead to the "not so good" part. There are a lot of glitches in the FMV sequence of the game. Some objects popping in & out. And , "why would i wanna play as an arbiter?". That part totally bummed me out.

Why are you looking at buying Halo 2?

If you don't have this game at this point in time, you should be ashamed.

The only reason to play this game is for XBOX live, just to let you know.

The game is good but why I got a Japanese version in US? Most menu and display are in Japanese. Is there any way to change the language setting?
