Yes, it's worse than drugs. The only prescription is more cowbell.

No, it's not addicting. Halo Combat Evolved seems more addicting to me, until I play around with the skulls and make some nice things happen with Grunt Birthday Party and Sputnik.. haha and of course, the unnamed skull.. code named cowbell/whuppopotamus.

I'd rather play a motoplat. Of course, none of you are still living in the 80s, so you wouldn't know what a motoplat is..

I think that it can be a little addicting, depending on who you play. If you play with people that are not annoying, or have a playing style similar to yours, then you want to keep playing. If you are playing people that bug you to death with their voice or the way they play then you don't want to play anymore. I think it all depends on who you are playing with/against. It also depends on how well you are doing. If you are doing good, you don't want to stop, but if you keep losing you are more likely to quit playing for a while.

Wow lol that was good. I love that skit.

Anyways I think it depends on the person. I'll get short periods of time where it is and then times when it's not

Too funny.

It is addicting. The last FPS I played was 007 for the Nintendo 64. I bought an XBOX 360 so I could play HALO with them about 3 months ago. Now I am over 2,000 games in under 3 months. I would say yes HALO is addicting. There are worse things to be addicted to though.

I find Diablo II more addicting.

Halo 2 has become garbage compared to what it used to be. Halo 2 XBOX Live has become one of the worlds biggest failures since Hitler, but twice as ridiculous. Ever since summer has unleashed its fury of children, I've had at least 1 or 2 children with their deathly annoying, high-pitched voices in each game. Immature kids who make me say, "Hey, can you get me a knife for each ear please?"

Oh yes, then theres the people who just insist on being asses. You know the ones that just make you want to b1tch slap them if they were sitting right next to you. there have been countless times when I wanted to kick someone in the teeth with a steel-toed boot, because they were just straight up jerk wads.

Halo 2 XBOX Live is the biggest garbage can I've ever seen.

Holy... we think so alike O_O.

a little overdramatic i think...But if only they could figure out a way to make it to where the only thing you hear is battle and not high pitched moaning...maybe bungie can hire a group of super scientists to somehow invent a person that could solve that incredible mystery. It'd be like solving how many licks it takes...will never happen.

Don't send me group invites.

It's all I do basically when I'm on leave.

Playing online is so much fun. But after playing for a few months online nonstop, the game gets boring.

The only thing I found addictive about Halo 2 was tricking and glitch finding on Campaign. Since being booted from HIH, I can't do this anymore because nobody here (Bungie.net) talks about that topic; without a community to conform and discuss with, the whole subject becomes completely boring.

Echo. That's why I don't play online. Kids aren't disciplined with a clenched fist anymore. As a consequence, they become disruptive, stupid and ridiculously annoying. Allow parents to beat their kids, I say. The human society will benefit.

No Matter the Size, Finish the Fight.

The campaign for Halo 2 could've been done much better, but everyone knows that.

The multiplayer has created several problems. The first being the repeated maps and game variants, the second the annoying little children that shouldn't even be playing Halo 2 in the first place, and just one more, the vast amounts of quitters that enter the game, probably due to the repeated maps and game variants.

Also, BXRs and double shots can burn in Hell.

However, I still play it because it is fun in custom games and I tend to receive a lot of unique types.
