Though the story line in Halo 2 isn't as great as the original, it's still worth buying to own. In the next chapter of the story Halo 2 builds up with more guns, more enemies, and enough explosions to keep you saying "Hooray!" all the way to the end. The graphics have definitely improved, alot better sound, more interactive environments, and a first, dual guns. The story line however doesn't make sense unless you play the original, and it takes a different perspective by playing not only as the master chief, but also one of the leaders in the covenant. The whole presentation is really well done. Movie sense are alot more cinematic than the first, and very well detailed. When your start out playing this, you pretty much feel like your actually in this future-like war is space or on earth, or wherever you end up landing. When your done playing the solo or co-op missions, multi player will definitely keep you playing. The multi-maps are alot more exciting than the first. Not only dose the multi player look good, it plays well online as well. Customizing you character's look was a nice touch, and if you need more maps, never fear, you can download more maps for free online. Overall Halo 2 is a must have whether you have the original x-box, or the 360.
