Halo2 had many good aspects about it as well as a few bad ones. first i will explain the good; it has more levels than halo did and the levels were much larger in size. The ground in the levels when walked apon sounded like you were walking on the wood, sand, and metal before you. The guns: the biggest part of the game halo2 was double yielding weapons. i thought this new feature was good but when doing this you are unable to throw granades. some of the weapons from halo are back with minimal improvements and a few new guns as well. the covenent weapons are good but tend to over heat faster and you dont seem to knock down your oponents very well with them either. the human weapons are very nice and are fast, accurate and powerful. the Characters in halo2 are expansive because of the interesting story of halo2. In the levels you will will not find 30 seconds of fighting then walk around for a while to your next checkpoint. you turn corners and you are faced with a few elites and jackles in the background, you slowly push your way through them in the levels and your adrenilne will just keep pumping. while playing, you enter a new room and this awesome music comes on and you get realy pumped up and you just destroy all the enemies in the rooms ahead. but while running and shooting through out the levels you hardly have the time to stop and look around and marvel at the surroundings. the graphics could be better and it seems that bungie got the video timing a little off during the cut scenes. and the ending; the most important part of any video game, movie, or a paper is the ending. when i had finished everything and i sat back in my chair knowing i had beaten halo2 i was a little confused about what had happend and i wanted to know more. so the ending could have been better. so in the end after three years of waiting for halo2 i was not dissappointed when i got it. the game was fantastic.

Halo 2 is a worthy sequel to Halo. While the story does lack in some parts, overall, the game is still excellent, one of the best games ever. To get the bad points out of the way, i didn't like the single player campaig... Read Full Review
