The Xbox Live community has already logged a record-setting 28 million hours playing "Halo 2", more than any other Xbox Live game in the two-year history of the global service.

The instant action and immersive gameplay in "Halo 2" propelled gamers to play online for an average of 91 minutes per session, approximately the same length as a major motion picture. Out of a universe of more than one million Xbox Live members, "Halo 2" on Xbox Live has already attracted more than 900,000 unique users.

There are about 95,000 people playing CS right now.

I'd like to see detailed stats comparing each at some point. I wonder how many will still be playing Halo2 online in a month, or 3 months.

Halo 2's multiplayer aspect is the best part of the game. It's almost perfectly done and by god, it's so much fun.

The only thing I hate is the randomness of maps. Yesterday I played Beaver Creek like 5 times in a row in matchmaking and I hate that map. Foundation and Burial mounds really suck too. Burial mounds is terrible for every game type. IUt always ends in a tie. And foundation is liek all rockets basically.

ill agree that sometimes you play map alot of times in a row and its annoying

but Foundation and burial mounds are great for team slayer games, foundation is great for 16 player 4 team slayer

i have bever creek unless its w/ rockets, CTF on burial mounds is nice and so is assault

I guess Foundation is alright with some game types but others really suck especially head to head. I also hate Burial mounds for both assualt and CTF as it ussually ends in a tie.
