THE GOOD:
Everything. I mean come on people this is one great game some minor glitches but LIve play is great. If it's too easy for you people play it on Legendary in story mode, stop complaining it's too short or too easy. Level ranks are pretty cool, especially once you get past level 45. Being a Elite is kinda cool.

THE BAD:
The bad is two words, standyby and dummying. STandby cheaters mess up some of the fun and should go get a life.(Well at least a non-Halo 2 life.) Almost all the high levels are cheaters. Plus, Bungie should add some new maps, it's getting a little repetitive. Not a lot of strategy involved but whatever it's a shooter, and a great game. Being a Elite is cool but no noticeable differences, really.

SUMMARY:
Bungie, you better make some new maps and a patch soon. Other than that great game.

THE GOOD:
Hard story mode in legendary with very smart AI and the people that you fight will actually replie to what you do if you throw a grenade they will yell out grenade and dodge the blast. Also the XBOX live option is awesome because soon you will be able to download new content and the multiplayer on live is soooo good along with the multiplayer off live. This game is just so good though if liked the first one I garente that you will love this one. The graphics in this game are also the best I've seen in along time maybe even better than Ninja Gaiden.

THE BAD:
Without XBOX live the game will get repetitive if you don't have people to play with on split screen or lan.

SUMMARY:
Graphics are awesome along with the sound all custom made soundtracks for the game and the gameplay is very good you fell like you are there because the AI is so good. Definently buy this game if you like first person shooters.

THE GOOD:
graphics
AI
vehicles
enemies
new storyline
dual weilding

THE BAD:
hardly anything.....yes the fact that not really hardly fighting on earth does suck a little....and that there's no 4 player coop....or that the chief cant sprint.........but those are so small compared to how good the game really is.

SUMMARY:
I have looked forward for this game for a year and a half.....and to tell you the truth....i am not the least bit dissapointed....oxm rated halo 2 a 9.7...the best xbox rating in there mag. gameinformer rated it a 10 out of 10.....as did eltronic gaming monthly! and they did so with good reasoning....halo 2 is a perfect fps.....i said a perfect FPS not a perfect game....no its not better than everyother single game like others might say....but it is the best fps!! And in my gaming heart...it is my fav. game over every other i have ever played.....THE STORYLINE is the best i have ever witnessed in my 9 years of my...

THE GOOD:
It is true. In my opinon, this is the greatest game ever made in the history of all games. It is INCREDIBLE online play. And I mean INCREDIBLE. It may not be massive multi-player online, but it is Big Team Battle, slayer, and easy to join games. More weapons, Updated old weapons, and new vehicles. You get two different stories, And those are my favorite type of games. I just love this game.

THE BAD:
Only two things. It's shorter then the first one, and the story is a little corny near the end.

SUMMARY:
Halo bombed this earth with satifactory and amazing remarks. Of couse, this is all true. And then comes Halo 2. Perfection. Excellent. And awsome Online with levels and all. You need this game. Once you own it you won't be able to sleep or do anything. I say it again, You Need This Game. Perioud.

THE GOOD:
awesome weapons
awesome monsters
best graphics
and the game is the best I've played.

THE BAD:
nothins bad

SUMMARY:
this game is a great game for the xbox because it features a simulated alien attack in the future wars. the guns are amazing, and the graphics are the bomb! if yu want a game for the summer u should buy halo 2 for the xbox.This is one of the hottest games I have played this whole year - superb graphics and a soundtrack by NIN make this a great action romp. Some other users have diss'd the game cuz they say it's too short, or it doesn't have enough weapons.... forget what they say, cuz the game is freaking HARD, and the weapons that you have access to require some serious skill to really master, so all in all the game is tuff to beat, and not at all suitable for pansies. Two thumbs way up!

Graphics: Graphics greatly improved from the original. The environments are simply gorgeous, and everything is extremely detailed. Loading times between levels has been eliminated at the cost of the odd graphical mapping glitch at the beginning of a cutscene change. Another major change is the ragdoll system which can result in some HILARIOUS dead body positions. You won't see dead bodies poking through walls, instead those bodies that would go through a wall in Halo 1 are now leaning against that wall in Halo 2(5/5)

Sound: Perfect. Perfect in every way possible. Soundtracks done by Breaking Benjamin, Hoobastank, Incubus and a performance by Steve Vai in the remix of the original theme song. The in-game music fits the game perfectly. (5/5)

Gameplay: New additions to the gameplay are, namely the Dual-wielding and the addition of a SECOND storyline. The dual-wielding is both good and bad. Dual-wielding can double your firepower, however, you can't throw grenades, melee...

Amazing Graphics !

THE BAD:
A little bit to short..

SUMMARY:
Master Chief is back and with a bunch of new weapons,enimies, and transportation! Halo 2 is an amazing game! If you liked the first Halo you definetly should go buy Halo 2! The new weapons like the Energy sword are so powerful and cool. This game has superb graphics and awesome gameplay. The levels wer egood and not to hrad an not easy. I hated the part where you had to fight your way through the flood. M favourite was the last level. Im not going ot say anything about it because Ill probally spoil it for you. The last level is amazing thats all Ill say about it..The online play must be good since everyones talking about it. I myself havent played online Halo 2 but will hopefully get it soon.

SUMMARY:
Alright I'm trying to start a whole review thing here and I know alot of you are probably thinking "There are a million and one review guys out there. Why should I care about this clown." I'm not saying I'm the best, but I sure as hell trying to be. Now This is my first review. And no I'm not going to just review hi hyped games aight. There will be games that you won't even hear about that I will review. Maybe even some you don't give a rat's furry little *ss about. Now let's begin the review.

Defend the Earth - The storyline

The storyline in this game is a coninuation of the last game (obviously). For those who didn't play Halo1, you play as a cyborg human thing called a SPARTAN, known as the Master Chief. And your the only SPARTAN left after this big battle that took place against the covenant(alien bastards who religously...
