Halo 2 Thoughts

[prism]

I have to say I was disappointed with Halo 2. It's still a fun game, but just not up to the caliber of the original. Numerous graphical glitches (normal mapping, pixellated explosions, etc.) were apparent, but even discounting those I still don't have nearly as much fun as playing Assault on the Control Room or The Two Betrayals in Halo 1 co-op. About the only thing I like more is the multiplayer (non co-op), which I thought was terribly overrated in Halo 1. What do you guys think?

i think its way better for the sheer fact of its online support. i know it had it in halo 1, but the way xbox live is setup with this game is great. i definitely enjoy the team games a lot more than the ones that are every man for themselves. i also think the weapons are WAY more balanced in this one, and its quite noticeable in online play, by the strategies that different people use to kill eachother. the duel wielding weapons really adds alot of variety to the attacking as well.

i am still hooked on it.

EDIT: and i have not even finished single player yet, although i hear the end is VERY VERY disappointing. i dont' care much for the single player anyways cause i play it on live all the time.
