Remember When it was Halo 2 vs half life 2 back in 2004? lmao

HL2 blows away Halo in just about EVERY category...Story, content, playability...multiplayer with ALL the different mods of the game, espeically one of the sickest following known to man (CS:S).

Not even close!

Do people still play Halo 2 MP? Because I still see plenty of people playing HL2DM.

lmao......i really liked Halo 2 (SP) and think HL2 is boring

I remember the day when Half life 2 and halo 2 Come out around the same Time and they were being Compared Quite a bit as to which one was better, LMAO I just dont think xbots Realised at the time just how good half life 2 was, It wasnt just better But Half life 2 is considered a gaming masterpiece that can even Hold it's own by todays Standards and Halo 2 well I played it on PC last night and that game is total generic Rubbish, Bad level design and **** AI, It really made me Wonder why The game is such a hit, Because the single Player in Halo 2 is really Not good at all.

So looking back on Half life 2 vs Halo 2 Today it's not even close Half life 2 is the better game By a gaming mile.

not for me, i played halo 2 way more

the online was epic for a console shooter at the time

i actually tried to play to half life 2 but it didnt suck me in

The only reason Half Life 2 gets sd much praise is because it was primarily a pc game (despite being ironically on the xbox as well). It's the same deal as Left 4 Dead- yes, they're good games, but they're honestly not anything more than good.

And you know. I played HL2 and stopped playing it in about a week. I played Halo2 for about 3 years-- and that being dedicated playing, not just once in a while.

I'm a huge Halo fan. I really like the universe, and CE is up there as one of my favorite games of all time.

HL2 single player is better then the campaign in Halo 2. I still think the campaign in Halo 2 was solid, just not steller. The co-op really makes it more fun then solo though. I just don't understand the rationalization though that since H2 isn't as good as HL2, or CE that it's "crap". Although disapointing the general gameplay was still decent and I had a good time with it. The story while disjointed really expanded on the lore and universe of Halo. Plus Arbiter is badass.

CRAP/TRASH FPS IMO, are games like Turning Point. And Soldier of Fortune Payback.

Halo 2 at worst is mediocre. Which is still a far cry from trash.

I remember back then, i remember how people were complaing about half life 2 because no one could play it because most peoples rigs weren't powerful enough and gpus weren't gonna be able too till 6 months or so later.

it was only on the pc for a while, and yeah youre right. but the ony thing is that its so much harder to get praised on the pc platform as an FPS than on the consoles, higher standards due to a larger library of exclusives and former exclusives built throughout the years. especially back in halo 2s day there really were no standards for consoe FPSs its like how halo wars today gets praise, yeah its an RTS game with a control scheme that works, good for it, too bad as an RTS game its utter crap. halo 2 was decent at best and mediocre at worst yet it gets praised as being one of the best FPSs by some people. the ther thing is most people praised halo 2 for the multiplayer again standards. there was no online multiplayer FPSs in the mainstream back then, there were a few on the dreamcast but that was it and 56k come on. and its funny hw as soon as halo 3 came out pretty much everyone mitagated to that game and left halo 3s so called amazing multiplayer.
