Halo is officially done with all new levels and updates made to it, so i can write this reveiw with happiness now and no guilt, and all i have to say is AMAZING. The story still sucks, but at least we can all wait as patiently as we did for Halo 2(no more riots now). While playing the story you will find yourself as master cheif, sporting the new mark VI armor for being such a beast on halo, or , you will find yourself as the Arbiter, an Elite who has been punished due to the destruction of Halo. as you begin the story, you will find Master Cheif, Keyes' daughter, and Sargent Johnson(the black guy from Halo who we all loved), each being awarded for their amazing feats. While the Arbiter is being tortured. As you progress through the story, you switch between each character. However the only good part of the story is when your on Earth. So if the story isnt as great as the first game was, what reason should you have to play this game. the multiplayer, If you have xbox live, you can play with over a 100,000 people on Xbox live, however you want to play, whenever you want to. you can play with up to 16 people on 15 different maps. And thats not even everything thats to playing online, which is good or else it would suck. You have a large array of weapons, some from the original have made a come back, as well as made some changes, except the needler, it still sucks. But the best new weapon has to be energy sword, the weapon we all saw from the original, but couldn't use, sadly. There are a couple new things that are kinda weird and should have been in the original, for one, now you can hold 2 single handed guns at once, wow, because we didnt have 2 hands before. Vehicles are also able to be destroyed, wow, maybe the Earth military should have kept their stuff indestructable than they wouldnt have to worry about being wiped out. But seriously, jokes aside, after about a year from its release, the day we all waited for. This game completely revolutionizes what the first game did to the entire first person genre.

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
