Half life 2 Episode 2 Owns Halo 2 in almost every aspect.
The story is so well developed, The weapons are balanced, graphics are unbelievable. H2V won't have HDR. I heard someone say Halo 2 Had better AI. And they must have just crawled from underneath a rock. Half-Life 2 has some of the best AI in game history. Halo 2 is epic fail.
1st of all... go back to 4chan you /b/tard.... ("epic fail" *rolls eyes*) Why the hell are you on a Halo forum if it's made of so much fail, huh? Is a little /b/tard trolling? You people are good for that....
2nd: You have a point w/ weapon balance... Halo2 does have a pretty bad flaw in that respect. However, I really don't find the HL2 weapons all that fun to use. The HL2 weapons bore me. Both the pistol and the shotgun sound like they're made of plastic... And, am I the only one who gets bored w/ the gravity gun after a while? Yeah, it's neat for a few hours and then.... meh.
3rd: Well devloped story? My ass... The only story I can get out of the Half-Life series is that some alien things are attacking and they jump on your head. And some guy's w/ helmets are shooting you, and that the main character is a nerd. Honestly, I think Half-Life has a rather weak, and fleshless storyline. Either that, or I'm missing something... Halo on the other hand, has a wide open, simplistic, yet detailed story. Granted, it's not groundbreakingly profound, but at least you're not playing a game wondering what the hell is going on (like I did w/ Half-Life and Half-Life 2). That, and it has 4 novels and a Graphic Novel as canonized back story. Halo's story is simple enough, yet fleshed out really well. And, personally, I hate the "cut scenes" in Half-Life 2. I don't enjoy being stuck in a room while people talk for 5 minutes... On the other hand, you can skip a cutscene in Halo if you wanna move on...
4th: Some of the best AI in game history? That's funny... obviously you've never played F.E.A.R. if you think that's good AI. WooHoo! Half-Life2's AI can throw things, shot at you, take cover, and DIE! That's great AI there. I honestly think that both HL2 and Halo2 have fairly good AI, but neither are particularly amazing... And, now that I think of it, F.E.A.R. is better than Half-Life 2... I had more fun w/ it, at least...
5th: Go back to /b/...
ok i know as a fact that this guy is talking crap to a game he has never played. And i know that all he knows is halo. If you had or played hl2 you would shut up instantly.
