somewhat different

User Rating: 9 | Halo 2 XBOX
Halo 2 drifted off somewhat from the storyline that was so strong in the first one. The environments are always closed and dark. The game is simply too short. Now on to the good parts. Great gameplay; single and multiplayer, good graphics. The guns are innovative and useful in different situations. The addition of many vehicles is very welcome and improves the gameplay to a certain point. The A.I. at different difficulty levels gets much smarter and they taunt you to the point that you may get frustrated, specially on Legendary. Halo 2 is a great game, but the prequel is just more impressive considering the time and the tools Bungie had.
