Take a look at Blood Gultch (Coalation), and compare it with the original in first. I did it personally and there are a LOT of differences.
Things I Liked About The Game- Being able to play as an elite
- Marines can drive warthogs (not very well)
- Xbox Live (duh)
- More Weapons
Things I Didn't Like About The Game- Cortana looks different (a computer can grow their hair out)
- The Plot (it just didn't click with me)
- Hijacking Vehicles (it gets really retarded when I just get in a ghost when a Flood jumps onto me, I get out of the ghost to waste the flood, then get blown up by a flood with a rocket launcher.
Yeh Cortana looks weird, and shes got a dirty look on her face in the level "High Charity"
The plot was abit intense, compared to the first one, i still dont get who the

that huge octopus thing was...
I wanted more Cheif, less Arbiter and the ending just left the story hanging, i HATE that.
Plasma Swords pwn j00!
Halo is all about multiplayer.
Doom 3 is all about single player. It's a horror FPS with beautiful graphics and lighting effects.
people already knew the plot was going to be complex and not as strong as HAlo 1, but aren't all sequals' plots bad? if not bad, not as good as the original's? throughout all of the dislikes about the plot 90% of the buyers still say that Halo 2 lived up to the hype, tell me how many other games could live up to such a hype
It lived up to the hype for me

Its true that Halo is more MP based, but even though its kinda short FPS wise in single player, i enjoyed the story
i'm still waiting to get it, but from what my friends say, there is nothing better than kicking convenant ass on earth and exploding elites with gas cannons, using the banshees in multiplayer (I LOVE BANSHEES!

) and many other things, my friends call it "Insanely Godly" i just hope so for when i get it, i want it to be that good
Meh Banshees in multi dont ahve the fuel rod gun- that pissed me off abit
Well I just got BF:Vietnam and I say it pwnz all for now because im hooked on it.
I dont know what all you haters are talking about...Halo 2 rocks! The graphics are way better (except in the movies where they kinda skip in the beginning of a clip and when the rocket's expolsion occasionally looks pixelated) and the new weapons are awesome. note: dont bother with a plasma pistol. It's no longer worth it, your better off with an empty gun that you can later reload when you find ammo. The storyline was...complex yes...you'd have to read the books to understand the whole thing. And as for the weird octapus thingy, could he have been a Forerunner or a Flood? The thing that I didnt like about it was how the campaign overlaps itself when it jumps from MC to the Arbitar. after the octapus encounter you are MC, after MC's missions are done you go back to being the Arbitar but his campaign is happening at the same time as the stuff you just did with MC. Bungi should have separated the campaigns and let the player choose which one they wanted to play. The ending unbelievably sucks. The thing I hated most about the ending wasnt what Chief said or where he was, but the fact that the final level isnt even played as MC!!!
My favorites about the campaign:
1) Sarge Johnson. He was sooo funny. After the first level in the cinematic my favorite line from the whole game: "For a brick, he flew pretty good!" Lol you cant help but laugh at that. For those of you who havent played, just laugh anyways.
2) Owning the Prophet. For those of you who havent played yet, I suggest you dont read the stuff in italics unless you want to know a little fun fact about a way to kill it. You can try to hijack the prophet's floating pedastal and then use the melee attack to kill it. Ahh the simple joy of beating his head in
3) In the covenant campaing using active camoflauge and the sword to obliterate the enemies. I wont say who for those who havent played.
4) The Beam Rifle. I personally love this gun. It pwns. The only thing i dont like about it, the overheating. You gotta love sniping the Jackal snipers in the game with their own weapons...
Overall I give Halo 2 a 9.9 outa 10 only because of the minor disappointment in the ending and the technical goofs with the cinematics.
Plus do you guys know about blind mode? If not go look for it somewhere else i dont wanna explain. I will tell you though that it is in the second level. Pretty close to where you start.
You can also unlock MP levels. I've gotten Foundation for beeting it on normal...I think that how...Ive read that there are 2 more. Unfortunately Hang em High from the original Halo was not among them.

IT DOESN'T HAVE FUEL ROD CANNON

that was one of the main reasons why i loved the banshee, also the dog-fights in the air are fun, but still many games are mostly multiplayer now, why play by yourself when you can play with your friends a couple of miles away, it's also fun to play with people you have no idea of who they are, besides, people are always learning, which makes it harder to fight than A.I. because they never learn...humans stratagize
Ya i was disappointed about that too, but hell now u can use the Wraith Mortar tank in MP. And you can jack the banshees. The art of boosting your banshee into your friend in MP is a joy that can only be expressed in his/her disappointment and your laughter.
I think the werid octopusthingy is like weird
It not forerunner beacuse they would have been humaniod (their articheture), its not flood beacause then why do all the flood attack you?
I already beat the game, It was kick ass, tho the ending was a dissapointment

but notheless Halo 2 online kicks ass im addicted to it now! l3lade Knight is my xbox live name if anyone wants to play against me

i would play against you except for three limiting factors:
1) I dont have live
2)Even if I did have live i still have 56k

(yes yes here comes the mocking) because my dad is really cheap...so cheap that our comp isnt even compatable for DSL or Cable!
2) I dont have Xbox.

I beet H2 at my friends house. (But I do have Halo 2 Limited Edition

and Im getting Xbox for Xmas

)
I played Halo 2 at my friend's house. It was mad cool. First, we played in singleplayer. I beat single. It was fun, but the ending sucks. WARNING, SPOILER: A big machine just comes down and it ends. I was so pissed off.

I punched his couch and slammed the table. My friend shot himself with a BB gun.

We then played multiplayer against each other. I'm so happy that your AI allies don't walk in front of you as much.

I killed so many of them that way.

[MOVE]

[/MOVE] Then, people dressed in suits came by my friend's house and threw a dead fish on his balcony. (In case you don't know what this means, it means that the mafia is coming for him.) My friend started hiding under the table while I continued playing. Now, I come over my friend's house just to play Halo 2.
I can't wait for AvP 2
That big machine thing was a fore runner ship...
I'm pretty dissapointed with Halo 2. I wish Cortana talked more, and the part where the Master Chief jumps out of the spaceship with a bomb decieves all physics I have learnt. When you play as the chief when you waste covenant outside the ship there are two stupid things that pissed me off:
1) There is still sound. Although they tried to change the sound, it was just stupid. If you were really in space there would be no sound at all.
2) You can still fire off a sub machine gun outside a spaceship... that makes sense.
They ruined XBOX Live (the search is about the slowest I've ever seen).
The graphics are fantastic though. The cinema scenes were some of the most amazing work I've ever seen. It was still a fun game and I can say I did enjoy it.
i just got halo 2 yesterday and only on the level where itsthe temple or sumtin

Think though, If they made it with no sound people would think that their TV was messed up or that the game was. They only put sound in because how weird would it be to be killing them with no sound? And as for the SMG, well we dont know that there are advancement to a SMG 300 years into the future. Plus again how gay would it be if you walk out there and you cant use that gun. Especially if that was your only one with ammo.
LOL. well

im outta luck, i picked up the gun that doesn't work in space....
I was quite disappointed with the story line in general, it happened pretty fast.
Oh, and btw in case any of you are curious to know if theres a different ending if u beat in on legendary -- > there isn't
I beat it on legendary and to my dismay theres nothing
However if you look closely in the credits you will see a line in there stating "Thank you, xbox community, for helping Micrsoft with it's plan of world domination"
And in closing, i would like to say i'll own any one of you on xbox live granted ur not god
gamertag: DoMiNaTioN05
I hated the ending to that thing, just setting it up for Halo3 I guess, and I rock on X-box live, Gamertag: SpaceShadow
Sucks though, cuzI dont have a mike yet...Your on Swap As soon as I can get my Xbox back from my dad
Just to warn you, I never lose.
