I dont think its a review. I heard there is some cool info in there, but I suggest buying it to find out.

I would buy it, but it's only sold through subscription or at GameStop...and there isn't one in my area. Friggin sucks.

well up in new york if you go to a magazine store they will be sure to have it maybe a few days later

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

I know its great too see new Halo 2 info, but wouldn't it be better to not see it, so you don't subject yourself to countless sleepless nights waiting in anticipation?

Aparently, the new Game Informer hitting stands soon, will have quite a bit of new HALO2 information and screenshots. Here's a quote from another forum:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>1 0 page halo 2 multiplayer exclusive with plenty of new ss's, for those of you drooling over the lone one bungie jusr released (the one on bungie's site is not one of the 8 new ones in GI)

so far from the pictures I can tell that

* you can play with more than two teams! Like I said I haven't read the article yet but one pic CLEARLY shows 2 pink MC 2 light green MC 1 Red MC and 1 Green MC!

* the enviorments are AWESOME!

* they have a pic of a flamethrower turret!

I'll post more about it once I read it.
SINGLE PLAYER

* Bungie confirmed the campaign will take place on both earth and a 2nd Halo Ring.

* Peaking and destructable envoirments are likely but not confirmed.

* Brute and Prophet confirmed, likely to be atleast one more covenant added.

MULTIPLAYER

* Online 5 week Alpha test has been completed. The test was available only to 1000 M$ employees.

* Elites WILL be playable in atleast 1 multiplayer mode

* New multi modes confirmed, (only one described)
Assault - offense carries bomb into defense's base to score a point, roles switch after a point is scored

* "ONLINE COOP LIKELY"

* Interactive envoirments
In alpha version objects could be moved by being shot or by pushing them, could be pushed off ledges.
Final version likely to contain quite a bit more interaction with envoirments.

* Ghost and Banshee will have a new addition - Holding the L trigger will cause engines to flare and cause you to move across the map at unheard of speeds

* New "energy elevator contraption" - stepping into the swirling energy beam lifts the player up like a strong air current. Players CAN fire will being elevated (unlike when using a ladder)<<<<<<<<<<<<<&l t;<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ;<<<<<<<<

Sounds interesting. I wonder if this all has all been confirmed?

I have it, and let me just say, have some tissue in your hands because these ten pages of multiplayer details are drool inducing.
