[glow=red,2,300]HALO 2
Get ready for the ride of your life, the greatest Xbox game of all time has arrived.[/glow]

The defeat of the Covenant in the first Halo game was only a temporary victory, as the alien attackers have renewed their mission to wipe out all of humanity. Despite the human military force's and Master Chief's efforts, the Covenant have breeched the Earth's defenses and have left its inhabitants in a dismal situation. In the midst of desperation, players assume the role of Master Chief and lead the resistance against the Covenant to save the people of Earth from a gruesome demise. Halo 2 will feature an immense and epic single player mode, as the story picks up where it ended in the first game. In addition to the single player mode, Halo 2 will also feature a redesigned multiplayer mode. While the first game limited players to LAN connectivity, Halo 2 takes multiplayer missions online by way of Xbox Live.

Well, I thought it was about time somebody made a thread about this game. This game is probably the best game you can get this year, along with GTA: San Andreas, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. I thought this game was so kick-arse, that I'd sticky the thread about it so we could have a nice, long discussion about it. Enjoy...oh, and what the hey. I'll add IGN's review here, also. Now start talking--all 6 of you. Now! Let us make this place a bustling community full of the (What else?) Ultimate Gamers!

Halo is the best game out this year !! It's so cool. I play online all the time !! Halo 2 is definately the best console game to come out in the current console wars !! Master Chief is the man !!

[Board Master]

hey sonic freak, i apologize... ive since changed my xbox live account so i never recieved your friend request or I would have accepted it... My new one is YouAllSuk... ;D ;D ;D

please send another request,,

also Halo 2 was the best game of last year.. the best game of this year is Resident evil 4, by far... even though its early, i dont see a better game coming out in 05 than RE4..

I heard the multiplayer is better than the first. Too bad the same can't be said for the single-player mode; it's good, but the first one's presumably better.

Halo 2 is probably the best first-person shooter out there. They took a game that was already at the top and made it even better, and in every way. Graphics-wise, gameplay-wise. It is unparalleled.

yer halo 2 is the best game you can play on line and is the best fighting game.

Halo 2 kicks ass on X-box Live. Hit me up at xxdueyxx if you wish to play me.
Anyways, the multiplayer is alot better than the first but the single player wasnt that much different. The fact that you could play as covenant is pretty awsome I must say. I just cant stand haveing to constantly barrle out my ammo on the never ending flow of mutants that slowly but surely, eat all of my squad and leave me alone to cower in my chair at night waiting for the next ugly bastard to pop out and scare the ever living poop out of me.

[RagedSparrow]

Not owning an x-box myslef i had to rely on my friends for my daily source of Halo2 addiction. but let me tell you, wehn we got online, it was like an adrenaline rush that would never go away. I just had to have more.....i flunked my first semester of college because fo it.....but it was fun while it lasted...lol

i personally prefer the sony PSP over anything else on the market, including the ipod!

its just a ton more versatile plus more powerful than the DS, not to offend any fanboys out there.

i found a place where they come free after you do some easy referring thing, even if it is kind of a hassle.
go here seriously it works great. www.FreePSPs.com/?r=18733112
