Is Halo 2 for the PC worth buying now? I'm a PC fan and won't ever buy a Xbox but I find that halo is fun and enjoyable to play (I play Halo 3 on a friend's Xbox every Saturday for a couple of hours). As far as I know Halo 1 is still going somewhat strong on the PC but what about Halo 2. Is it even alive? Should I buy it or not?

Not at all to be honest, but that's just my point of view.

Coming from someone who actually enjoyed the first game...... Meh it sucks. Story feels like a half life 2 episode, it ends with a "to be continued" in the middle of the game. Combat is not as good as the first, weapons are weak and you have to shoot enemies way too many times and you carry less ammo. It just kill the realism the first had when it came out. Also the FOV is too close and annoying and you mostly play as an elite who is specialized in stealth and meele attacks. I wanna play as masterchief damn it.

Personally I'd say it's not worth it. But if you're a halo fan like you said, I guess. I just don't see any fun in it, maybe if I were 10 years younger.

Halo 2 was bad, the only thing that was good about it was that it was the first really good online console game.... that's about it.

I haven't played Halo 2 neither the first Halo, so my opinion about Halo is based only on Halo 3. Not familiar with the others so that's why I'm asking you guys :) . Seeing your opinions I surely won't buy it, especially when I don't have any exp with Halo other than the 3rd one. Thanks for the fast replies.

Halo 2 isn't the best game, but its an obvious port from the xbox, It has a map editor and xbox live achievements but thats about all it has over the Console version, There are better games out there but halo 2 is cheap these days so It wont hurt your wallet to get it.

Yes it is worth buying, and Halo 2 on PC looks much better than the Xbox versions visuals. I am pretty sure you do need Windows Vista to play Halo 2 though, but there might be away around that, google it.

Halo 1 is good, halo 2 is just as good, halo 3 may be the best, ODST is just an expansion, Reach, idk
