yeah its just about the one thing that absolutely no one talks about on off topic for some reason yet its like the biggest game of the year i wonder why

i am of course refering to halo 2 (ud get the title if u read the books )


and all this crazyness for a pale guy with freckles in tight spandex?

but really the whole halo 2 thing is getting crazier by the day i mean we got stores getting in excess of 1000 preorders for this thing and its not even coming out with in a month its gonna be insane on launch day trying to go anywhere near a video game store

 

[Judge]

I'm gonna order the Limited Edition, a silver box etc. woopee. gotta have that one. really need halo 2 :O I NEED IT NOW.

 

[Soulicro]

I dont get whats all the hype about... stores having 1000 preorders over the stock theyre gonna get? which would probably be a lot? jesus, people, its just a game...

*gets ready for all the flaming.*

Halo 2 is definately in my list, along with Fable, KOTOR II, and Half Life 2. o_o

 

[Tassadar]

Don't care for Halo 2. They made a terrible decision to have it X-Box only and for that I could really care less about the series.

They make that same mistake for every game made for on consol

I looking for halo 2 and half life 2

On the other hand, look what happened when they ported it to pc.

I can't wait for Halo 2. An American guy at my local Gamestation shop reminded of it, as to be honest, I'd kinda forgot it was coming out soon! Yeah, it's definitely on my to buy list along with San Andreas and Fable. If it can top the first game, then I'd be surprised if it didn't get GOTY.

I honestly don't see the big deal about halo or halo 2. Played halo didn't like it. I don't even have x-box. But everyone is like "OMG halo!" its a game. if i was that excited about it. i would still wait until the price goes down. I don't know about you but 50 or so dollars for a what.... a weeks worth of play time is not worth it to me. The longest game iv'e ever played was half life. that actually took me a few months to beat. and the shortest was like luigi's mansion in 2 hours. but still.

What is so great about the game?

the first halo is fun on the x-box so i hope it's just as good as the first one, unless when it's only for online players.

Honestly though, if the original HL took you months to beat....you're one crappy gamer. :laff:

Really though, Halo has the great graphics, controls, story and AI to make it a genuine classic. Along with some fantastic multiplayer (ever played it through system link?) it's really a good FPS. And on the account of the length of a game, it doesn't mean anything. I mean, I finished Sudeki in 10 hours; I finished Chronicles of Riddick in what, 8 hours or something. But that still doesn't mean it wasn't worth my money nor that they're not good games.

EDIT: ha ha ha, it actually censored Riddick.

What is so great about the game....wow that is a long list, Halo in itself has a great storyline and in singleplayer mode, depending on your skill can take you 1 day to a week and thats just on the easy mode ;D, once you get finished playing single player Multiplayer is like a whole other game, and from what im hearing they put more into the multiplayer for Halo 2 so they're can be up to 4 teams in Multiplayer (1xbox per team, on Xbox Live) and the swords will keep people busy for a looong time, hell Halo has been out for a while and I still play it with my friends.

 

[nZ]

Been to a lan to play halo ? 32 player live hell yeah that was the time of my life , looking forward to the same thing on halo 2

 

[Hash]

Halo is truely a great game, I still play it to this day. And i'm sure that Halo 2 will be even more fun the the original, I can't wait for it.

 

[Sonic the Vampire]

Heh I hate Halo with a vengeance but I'm sort of looking forward to Halo 2. I played Halo on Xbox and I just couldn't push myself any farther after the 72nd identical room with little spiders pouring out of the floor/walls/miscelanious. Then somebody gave it to me on PC as a gift and I tried playing the multiplayer, but it only took me about 2 days to realize how lame Halo multiplayer was compared to, say, a game designed for multiplayer, like Tribes, or Quake 3, or Half Life, or any other game.

 

[sub]

I think people are getting over excited about halo 2. It's going to be the same thing as halo, but with new levels and a few new weapons. The same thing goes for grand theft auto san andres.

 

[Arthos]

Eh, I'll wait until Reliable reviews come out. For now I'm lowering my expectations as low as possible. Basically It'll be another Doom 3. Great graphics, no soul. I say this to myself so that I am not excited.

 

[Tassadar]

That is very true, the PC port was terrible, but something is better than nothing. I'll say Halo was a great game, great for LANs and online fun. I don't believe that the game is ****-your-pants and masturbate to it good like most people seem to think of it. It's just another sci-fi shooter, tons have been made, this one just happens to be fun, it's not necessarily original.

 

[Hibiki]

the thing is though

halo 2 wont be the same thing as halo and thats the point behind it practicaly every weapon is new or altered, much larger game space now isntead of just being on halo ur going all over the universe


and theres more to halo then if u play it by urself inorder to get the real halo fun u need friends to play coop and multiplayer thats where the game really takes off

i mean halo was no where near a perfect game but it was still insanely fun once u start playing it the way it really should be played and the thing about bungie is they know what the fans want because they all are halo fans

theres no way halo 2 will be anything short of hella cool

 

[owa]

I don't care about Halo 2, I'll rent it, and beat it. Just like I did for Halo. I have no intentions of buying it.
