Mazy Posted November 12, 2004 Report Posted November 12, 2004 I havent really been effected by the hype machine, and the stuff Ive played so far have been pretty unimpressive. I just hope it'll get better further in Opinions? Quote
RD Posted November 12, 2004 Report Posted November 12, 2004 i only seen the commercial, and i thought it was gay, but according to gamespot it owns but the singleplayer story sux and is short Quote
ginsengavenger Posted November 12, 2004 Report Posted November 12, 2004 guys who've played through it say it's cool, better than the first... better cinematics and more coherent generally and less repetetetetive levels. tbh though i didn't think halo1 was all that great. it did set the bar but consoles are still really far behind in a lot of respects.

Mazy Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Posted November 12, 2004 The cutscenes are horrible in the way that the models just pops up in every scene change, and it looks fucking ridiculous, and unacceptable in my opinion. The game does feel like the original, and in some ways it is better, but ill wait with my final verdict on it until ive played it properly Quote
ginsengavenger Posted November 12, 2004 Report Posted November 12, 2004 what's wrong with the cutscenes is the way they stream the resources in... the thing starts playing before everything is even loaded so you get the pop when the higher detail stuff gets in D: Quote
Kreigore Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 The thing I liked about the first halo is the feeling in the weapons, sounds and such. I really liked it and the multiplayer was insane when u where on lans. Dunno about the sequel, havent got a xbox so I cant really judge it, but from what Ive seen it seems like they have only put more action in it. Quote
mikezilla Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 i think the game is awesome, i've beaten it and put some serious time into multiplayer. Funny thing is I have the game copied to the hard drive so the pop in on the cut scenes was far less noticeable (pretty much not noticeable) I think it's awesome they tried to tell a different story with Halo 2. Just wish you spent more time on earth. Seems like a squandered idea. Quote
Mazy Posted November 13, 2004 Author Report Posted November 13, 2004 Im really trying to like it but I just cant stop the hate. The fact that they went on another copy/paste leveldesign spree just fuels my anger. The levels with vehicles r totally kickass tho, if all the game had this level of quality then it wud be a winner in my book, but these indoor levels with the same fucking alien architecture everywhere just makes me feel stupid that I actually spend money on the game. Anyway, hopefully I'll be done with it soon and I'll be able to get on with HL2 ~ Quote
InsaneSingingBlender Posted November 13, 2004 Report Posted November 13, 2004 does it have ragdoll? Quote
Duff-e Posted November 14, 2004 Report Posted November 14, 2004 i have to agree that i thought halo 2 was nothing special when i played it on my friends tv....but then we played it on a 52" dlp and my GOD....it really is a beautiful game....and fucking fun with 3 players since each box is like 20" a piece me and my friend were up till 3 friday night beating halo 2 but i fell asleep, from what i hear the ending is quite the cliffhanger, but kind of disappointing. at first i hated the controls and playing a FPS with a controller at all...but it grew on me.

JynxDaddy Posted November 14, 2004 Report Posted November 14, 2004 So mike, when does it come on on pc? Quote
