For a minute there I thought they were fixing the bugs!

Good to know there's no worry about that happening.

EDIT: In case you're that slow. I'm being sarcastic.

Agreed. H2 will go down in history as one of the most retarded games in M$ history. For Xbox AND Vista.

I cannot believe you said that. That is such a baseless, uninformed comment Ipjuunin. I'm very surprised at you. You know full well that Halo 2 is one of the most well received games ever and that if there was a Video Game Hall of Fame that Halo 2 would be likely be inducted immediately.

Why of course, but just because a game is popular solely for the reaons of having the number 2 or 3 after their names, better graphics, and extremely easy gameplay, doesn't mean it's a "good" game.

It was a good game to pick up and play multiplayer on a console.

The singleplayer was boring and uninspired.

No, of course not. Nor would we expect it to, however, selling $125 million worth in a 24 hour period after release and the rave reviews that the game has received would indicate that it is, in fact, a good game. You're naturally entitled to your opinion, but saying something factual like it "will go down as one of the most retarded games of all time" is just, well, classless.

On PC, it will do.

It still hurts my head to think someone at MS thought this was actually a good idea and people would buy vista for this game.

Extremely easy gameplay. Horrible plot/storyline. Do you really think amaeturs who scream at the top of their lungs in Live headsets, know what they're talking about?

IN THE FIRST 24 HOURS. Gamers loved Halo1, so OF COURSE they're going to get H2, without knowing how it's going to turn out.

I'm not trying to argue with you here, (you're one of the first person I've met here that doesn't scream "omg ipjouniin [<while screaming out my name totally wrong], you're such a dick, man. stop being jerk, lol". So I respect that.) but I'm merely pointing out that H2, was NOT a good game. It may have been a POPULAR game, but not a good game. My two cents.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I have to agree, campaign only had a few highlights. Multiplayer is the attraction for Halo 2 and most people know that.

I disagree with the underlined statement. You say that Halo 2 is not a good game as factual information. This statement is incorrect.

It may have been a POPULAR game, but not a good game. My two cents.Your second sentence (bolded), is a much more agreeable statement because you state that, in your personal opinion, you do not feel that Halo 2 is a good game. This statement is correct.

My initial post to you was only asking that you not state your opinion as real, factual information, especially when there is an overwhelming amount of viewpoints from the opposing side.

The average score from over 90 press reviews is 9.5 out of 10. That's very, very rave. Selecting one bad review out of literally hundreds of good ones means nothing to me.

No it's not, buddy. If you'll take the time to read, you'll notice that Ipjuunin originally stated that Halo 2 will go down as one of the most retarded games ever, for Xbox AND Vista. Please be a little more thorough.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Indeed the press review rating is more like 75%, which for a PC game means stay away.

The rating is based on 4 reviews though.

As if we don't know what to expect with H2V. Same game different platform. Love it or hate.
