Halo 2 is an excellent game for Xbox. It is one of the classics. Halo 2 has many new feature from Halo 1. In Halo 2 you can carry duel weapons, lock on with the rocket launcher, and play as the Covenant. There are also new creatures and guns. There are now two new enemies. The covenant now consists of Brutes which are big gorilla like creatures, and tiny little bugs (not sure what they are called). The new weapons consist of a brute shot (a grenade launcher), a rod gun, a covenant sniper rifle, and an Energy Sword. The rod gun and energy sword previously existed in Halo 1, but they were not available to the Master Chief. The missions are not as good as Halo 1. The story line is much better though because it goes more in depth than in the first Halo. Also, you are not limited to a few vehicles in Halo 2. You can now drive the wraith and also you can pilot a new vehicle called the Specter. Also, all the other vehicles that you were able to drive in the last Halo now have new features. The worst new feature is that all of them can obtain damage now. Also, the Warthog now have a new turret on it. You can use the classic minigun, or a rocket launcher. Another feature is XBOX Live. You can now play against multiple gamers online and increase your skill. There comes a point when you can't get any better at the campaign, but playing online is like a new burst of skill. Test your skill and gain an online rank against the world.
