When I first started to play, I was immediately pleased with the graphics. But it felt different right away, jumping had been changed, throwing grenades felt different. It no longer felt like Halo, and at first I was furious. But after playing through a level or two and some multiplayer. The game definitely feels different than the first, and more than ever if you played Halo alot. You will notice every different animation, and minor detail. But the change isn't bad by any means. I used to be a a pistol whore, and now multiplayer is much more even and team oriented. The graphics are great, and the multiplayer is unbelievable just as the first one was, just in a different way. I used to be able to win tournaments alone, but in Halo 2 you are going to need a good team. Coordination and teamwork is key, and it is all the more satisfying. The new levels are beautiful, every level seems HUGE. WIth battles going on in the background it is great. If you feel like a little sketchy on how it feels different. Give it some time, get adjusted. It is much different, yet better than I had suspected.
