@coolguy774 It's been so long since I've been to this page, so I scroll down, see your comment then think to myself...wait that sounds familiar. So i scroll down two more comments and wow look, you copied my comment. It probably doesn't mean anything, but that was a straight up ignorant move dude, write your own stuff. Nice one dumb a$$.
amazing thats all i have to say simply amazing and yes peeps i did brake my controler at the end of the darn game lmfao =)
best multiplayer shooter EVAR!!! im sorry reach, forge world is awesome but there just something that is vary addicting about halo 2's multiplayer!
I like- new and old weapons,Story,the envirment,multi-player,the boost for the ghost,the graphics,and the load times aren't long. I Dislike- The a.i drives like they never had a licence,the cutscenes and gameplay has this graphical problem that maybe overpowered the system's graphic capability, The weapons are small and sound like they aren't to powerful,the challenge isn't the enemies are to powerful, it is the fact that the level is way too long, and the demo was better than this.
Halo 2 is an epic game still today and a fantastic sequel to the classic original. I personally loved the story, it was full of plot twists and it was really engaging to follow the Covenant's side of the story, and for the ending, people were upset because they wanted the game to keep going...i thought it was a perfect ending to lead up to Halo 3. And Halo 2 defined console online multiplayer like Halo 1 defined console shooters in general. My point being, this game is extrordinary on all aspects LONG LIVE HALO!!

Man, those were some great times. This and the original Halo. Glad they're remaking Combat Evolved, but they better make a Halo 2 remake, or I'll gun them down and make one myself!
I remember the good old H2-days. God that was sooo much fun! Miss those days some times. The multiplayer was sooo amazing and it really stood out compared to other games. Since then other games have had the same quality multiplayer, but I still miss the H2 days.
Was he drunk? For one the music is louder than his voice, and why is he jabbering on and on and on like a kid talking about his new gameboy game, he is supposed to be a professional reviewer!!! I could do alot better job than this guy, FIRE HIM! Hire me.
this vid is like 5 times longer than a normal one. I miss the XBox and Halo 2, but the art design of the box is so unfriendly
Loved this game... I'd love to be zapped into that universe...and be able to come back to life and come back to this one :)
This game is the best first person shooter ever!! I like it better than halo 3, reach, or ODST, I love call of duty but its got nothing on this!!
People pc online service is not gone why not get the pc versoin of this game because yes we all know this was a great xbox shooter but now that origanal xbox live service is gone how about geting live?
This is the best xbox game ever made I dont know why he keeps putting it down. I would like to see him beat it on legendary!
When the reviewer said Halo 2 wasnt too tough, he was wrong. Halo 2 is the only game in the trilogy i havent beaten yet. Also, the game is the best in the series, because of the many new features that are not in Halo Combat Evolved.
the part where he says you cant jump on the vehicles and take them from other players from the front is wrong, it may be very tricky because other players are shooting at you too but it can be done with the right jumping time and pushing the button at the right time makes you grab the vehicle from the front and flips you over and kicks the other guy out of the vehicle, i use to be supurb at this game, played it system link and online, it brings back some good memories that hopefully halo reach can bring back but im all grown up now so i dont have those 15-20 hours and 15 friends with xboxs to come over and system link and have a blast, seriously so much fun playing with that many people, now i only got 2-3 hours tops to play a game at one time then work, but oh well, go halo reach, bring back some memories
MetalMan300 I agree with your thoughts on the Halo 2 ending. Now it's awesome! When I heard the last sentence in the campaign (which I will not spoil if you haven't played it) my jaw nearly fell off and I was so excited to play Halo 3.
I personally think Halo gets better with age. Halo 2's "bad" ending (which i liked) isnt as taxing anymore since the third ones out, so we arent left hanging anymore waiting for the story to get finished! And as far as the campaign is concerned, there arent any weak levels at all, compared to Halo 1's only weak point (The Library) and the one kinda confusing level I didnt care for in Halo 3 (Cortana) although both of those games are still outstanding in their own rights. @ChiefFreeman Yeah idk about that either. Hope I didnt sound like a douche for correcting you, it kinda sounded like that to me when i reread it in retrospect.
@noobs4sale, i totally agree, if halo 1 had the graphics and multiplayer functionality of halo 3 then it would be the best in the series
The only thing that wasn't good about this game was the campaign environments shrank majorly from Halo 1
