Halo 2 live up to its name and all the hype surrounding it. Its hard to believe that Microsoft could take halo, a near perfect game and tweak it just enough to make it 10 time better. The AI in Halo 2 is far greater than Halo and was much needed. In the first halo enemy where predictable and sometime just plain dumb. In Halo 2 the enemy is a lot smarter but still provides a nice balance on difficulty. The in game graphs are great and most of the scenes during the single player campaign mode are good but sometime the cut scenes look blocky and cheap but this doesn't take about from the game itself. The story line is good and playing as both sides is a lot of fun and completely unexpected. Sounds it great, the use of real music is great and less boring. Game play is good and right off the back you will notice you can hold two of most small weapons, its is great and being able to control each individually is just plain smart and fun. The only real thing missing is the lack new vehicles and weapons. They did improve on the one from the first halo and added a few new ones but nothing really impressive, and a few of the new weapons in my opinion are a joke. But the addition of damage to the vehicles is great, another nice unexpected feature.
