It's fun online, but...

User Rating: 9 | Halo 2 XBOX
Halo 2. The long awaited sequel to the instant classic, Halo, is here. Why am I writing a review now, though, nearly one and a half years after the game came out. One word: F**k. I hear it constantly when fragging online on Xbox Live. As a thirteen year old, I think videogames are the greatest. However, when I boot up my Xbox and plug in my Ethernet cable to my Xbox, I instantly either turn off the "through speakers" voice option or unplug my headset. The last thing I want my parents to hear is F**K YOU KID. However, the online experience isn't ALL bad. I have managed to make some friends, (mostly my age), who don't curse up a storm OR scream about chocolate milk. Now for the single player part. It's fun, but seems awfully repetitive with your objectives. "Kill Regret...Kill Regret...Kill Regret..." and when I finally do kill regret, it's all "stop Tartarus" or "DON'T LET HIM ACTIVATE THE RING!" That last quote vaguely reminds me of another title that has something to do with circles. But hey, it's fun, and that's all that matters. As for multiplayer, don't curse, don't suck, and don't scream about chocolate milk.
