What are you people thinking! HALO 2 is awsome! Seriously, this game is much better than the first! It has more features on all modes, new weapons *including my favorite, the sword* new vehicles *like the Wraith and spectre* , duel weapons, and alot more levels....AND THATS JUST MULTIPLAYER! This also has Online features so you can play multiple gameplays online with other users. Plus the Campain is much longer...to those morons who said the first was better read this and think about how foolish you've been...and halo 3 will be even better!! G-G-G-GUNIT!!

Great game

Even thought I just played the first level, "The Heretic", the game had great graphics. The Duel part of two weapons was amazing. I just got it right now. I can't wait to finish it. Buy the game you won't be sorry.

Halo 2 is the least bit boring. You do need targeting and stradegy for everything. And if u like the boring 2d games and non violent games you should not try this game. But if you like action and 1st person shooter then youll love Halo 2.

Really fun, but a high price for an original X-Box game

Halo 2 is light years ahead of Halo 1 and has the look and feel of an X-Box 360 game. With that being said, it really should be more like $20 instead of the hefty $30 price tag it now carries. I mean, it's an original X-Box game -- I think that Microsoft is being a bit too greedy and taking advantage of the Halo frenzy that #3 is causing right now. Still, it was very fun to play. The story is incoherent, and the game ends on a very abrupt and unsatisfying note. Great music.

Great Game but Breaks no Bars

Great Game but Breaks no Bars is the title cause really come on lets all see the truth that this game is awesome.

The Graphics is amazing and to this date as I am writing this review it is amazing.

But before I go on with this review if you already have a X-Box and you do not got Halo2 you are A.) Broke as hell and can't buy it B.) Too young to buy this game. C.) Or just a big loser to not know this game is a must buy for any X-Box owner.

Well now with the review I must say that they did a great job on making a sequel cause I myself were not a big fan of Halo and thought it was a good game but nothing to get excited about.

But I must say Halo 2 is a great game cause I have played the game for 3 times already and see myself playing the single player mode again which I am playing it on my fourth time.

For the audio I think everyone knows about the music which I love and the sounds are really well made. The voiceovers were great cause the look of all the people were fitting in with the voices.

So as you see the game is great oh I forgot to talk about the multiplayer and I think it is the same but just like the first version it is only fun for me for a couple of hours then I am bored but it if fun while I play so no complains about it.

Now with the other part of the title "but Breaks no Bars"

We all saw some evolution in FPS after Halo came out and even though I think Halo 2 is better than Halo I must say that Halo did more to FPS than Halo 2 did cause Halo 2 didn't do anything new if you really see.
Here is what I mean:

1.)For those that have played the multiplayer know about stealing vehicles while the other is on it. - Copied from GTA

2.)Don't know what those are called but those that you fly with now you can do some tricks with them - Copied from Crimson Skies

3.)A sword on FPS - Copied from Doom

4.)Dual Weapon - Copied from Counter Strike "All they did was some little thinking and used other weapons than pistols"

You guys get the point all they did was add these features to Halo 2 and I wouldn't call these things original so that it is why this game doesn't revolutionize <--(don't know if that is how you spell it) anything with games meaning it doesn't break no bars

Verdict: 5.0 out of 5.0 (I usually give more than 5 when they surpass my expectations and really change something just look at my other reviews to see what I mean)

P.S. Just cause I played single player so many times doesn't mean it is flawless cause there are levels in the game that just plain suck.

g00d game

I got this game when it first came out, beat it the first day too. IT was really good, but no where near as good as the first one because it's like you can't play it again because the lvls can become very tedious. I would reccomend this for anyone who likes a good first person shooter game, like me of course :). Excellent online gaming, best out there by far. Guns are good, I don't see how people say this game is easy. I enjoyed it, you will too.

Whats up with this review o.0
(4 one thing ithink this game is bad and boring. I bought it thinking it would be good like aminal crosing or pokeman, but i was wrong. U shoot and hurt witch is just not good. the only good part is when mario comes in and beats the bad guy. though it is verry educational and teaches math and and english, its just not worth getting. i sudgest good games like pokeman dass and aminal crossing.) Erm.....I think he's like 2 years old, he spelled everything wrong, and mario in halo 2 o.0. I think his parents gave him too much booz for his sore teeth =).

*good game. Get it for a weeks worth of fun*
*don't buy it if you want months of fun, try elder scrolls games (rpg), runescape, and many more other good titles, runescape is a online rpg. You don't have to buy it.

HALO 2 (Plot Simplified)

Introduction:
Okay, I'm writing this review because of an article I read in Gamepro magazine that said that HALO's plot was so difficult that not even it's biggest fanboys could follow it, and I strongly disagree. I do not consider myself to be a HALO fanboy and in my opinion, HALO's story & plot are rather easy to follow compared to other games out there.
So, just so you know, I won't be writing much about the gameplay here. There are already plenty of other reviews for that, my review is to simplify the plot so that anyone who read that article or heard from a friend that HALO's story/plot are too difficult to follow can read it and draw their own conclusions...
Why? Because HALO is one of the greatest games I've ever played, and I'd hate for anyone to miss out on it because some people happen to think that it's plot/story are to difficult to follow.

The Plot: (Simplified)
In the future, human kind has finally created space ships capable of interstellar travel. However, this has caught the attention of The Covenant, an alien race of religious extremeists who view human kind as some kind of great demonic presence. (Sound familiar?) Now human kind is locked in an epic struggle for survival against The Covenant.

The Marines: Human kind's finest soldiers. Unfortunately, The Covenant soldiers tend to make short work of them...

The Covenant: An alien race of religious extremeists bent on the destruction of the human race.

Spartan II: Super soldiers trained for combat since they were just children, complete with cybernetic enhancements, the Spartan II's are the only soldiers who can go toe to toe with The Covenant's soldiers and hope to prevale. Unfortuately, since the Covenant attack on the human space colony "Reach" only one Spartan II was known to survive. Spartan 117, the Master Chief.

Reach: A human space colony that was attacked and destroyed by The Covenant.

Spartan 117, the Master Chief: The ultimate Spartan II, capable of handling both human & covenant weapons & vehicles. Man kind's last hope for survival.

HALO: A ring world created by the Forerunners as a last resort against The Flood.

Forerunners: An ancient alien race that is now extinct, they were responsible for the advent of HALO.

The Flood: A paracitic race of aliens, once they attach themselves to a human or covenant host, the host will begin to mutate and reproduce more Flood spores.

This is basically all you need to know about the HALO universe, the rest you will learn as you play through the game.
If what you've read so far sounds too complicated, then it probably is for you. if not, buy yourself a copy of "HALO: Combat Evolved" and let the adventure for the salvation of the human race begin!

I was never a big fan of FPS's, (First-Person Shooters) but HALO's smooth controls & epic story made me forget I was playing an FPS at all!

Overall Rating: 5 Stars! Story mode isn't quite as good as HALO 1 & 3, but it's XBOX LIVE capabilities as well as the overall story of all 3 games makes it a 5 star experience.

this game is very fun if you are looking for a great 1st-person shooter this might be the game for you. And MANY PEOPLE play this on xbox- live! If you can't play online I will tell you some stuff about this game. Your Spatan 117 (The Master Chief) you must defend the earth from the Covenant Army. You and the last Merines on the Earth must stop the Covenat before its to late! There are many weapons like the M6C Pistol, BR55 Rifle, M7/Caseless Sub Machine Gun (SMG), S2 AM Sniper Rifle, M19 SSM Rocket Launcher, M90 Shotgun, M9 HE-DP Fragmetation Grenade, and many other weapons. But all I'm trying to say is that Halo 2 is a great game!!!

Kids enjoy the game

The kids say the Marines' language is a little stronger in Halo 2 than the original Halo. Quick shipping - good price.
