halo 2 is.......good

User Rating: 8.5 | Halo 2 XBOX
Halo 1 was a very good game not just in terms of game play but it was FUN. Now halo 2 has come along I can't help feeling a bit disappointed. Sure the graphics have been improved but not that much, it’s just that the master chief look very good. There are too many pop in certain details such as textures on surroundings seem to pop as you get nearer and the only decent additions to the game since halo1 is the vehicle hijacking and dual welding weapons. But unlike in halo1 there isn’t a level that is memorable. In halo 1 my favourite level was the “attack on the control room” because of it’s grand environments and the ability to use all the weapons and vehicles. And because of all this, halo 2 seems like more of an expansion pack rather then a proper sequel. In addition the game suffers from a short storyline and a short single player campaign. Now I bet you are thinking I hate the game? not true, I like the game and what saved it is it’s movie like presentation and use of well made music, as well as it odd fun moment but most of all, MULTIPLAYER. And play this online and it will turn out to be the best games experience ever!
