It had a good run, but i personally think it sucks now. People dont play for fun anymore. Its too serious.

Happily married to Fatal_Coin_Vest since July 1st, 2009.

Thank you, Captain K Mart.

No, it is not. I paly Halo 2 on XBL and astill love it. That could be becasue I only get it for a month ro two then wait a few months, then get XBL again, but that isn't the pioint. I believe Halo 2 is still the msot played game on XBL. Campaign is diff, I only play that to beat on on legendary with my buddy, juts for the sake of beating it.

There will be a few left over with old xboxes, some hardcore H2 fans and probably some tournament players keeping in touch.

But when Halo 3 hits, the shows over for the masses on Halo2.

this game wont be dead for along while, many games from years ago still have alot of online players. there will always be a huge group of loyal Halo 2 players, even after halo 3 is released.

i dont play halo 2 as much as before but im not gonna say its boring and ill never play again. i still enjoy a game or two here and there, who doesnt right?

the game will always be a classic, it took the huge leap which has made other games become what they are today. we wont forget that but still....

....BRING ON H3!!! w00t w00t!

It's not dead, but it's certainly wheezing. Since the beta we've been stuck with a playlist line up that nobody likes, and the rate of quitting is absolutely ridiculous.

U run into quitters each game. It's too stressful. But I'll still play. :P

its definitly not dead right now. 1/4 million players play it every day. i think that number may go up a little, then when halo 3 releases it will go way down.

I play Halo 2 for fun everyday, looking for new Easter eggs, glithes, stuff like that. Plus I play Halo 2 Live all the time.

But no one else plays for fun. Everyone will say they will but not enough people.

Maps I've worked on:
The Dead
Fortress

Gametypes I've worked on:
Apocalyspe

My Fileshare for more cool stuff.

Halo 2 isn't dead for me. I still play it on LAN, it's the only game out there that has 4 player splitscreen and has customizable games. Games like Gears are fun, but they don't have the replay value that Halo has.

But I'm really hating the playlist now. The BTB playlist is crap. It's either Flag Wars or 1 Flag. What ever happened to a good 15 minute game of CTF classic, or just some Team Slayer. And I can never find any decent custom games. I like the over the top custom games every now and then, but everybody is either playing Rocket Launcher Sniper Wars with Overshield or they are playing some super serious MLG gametype.

I still play for fun.

It is getting old but it still has replay value like no other game i own which is why i come back to it so often.

of course it's not the same. it's been out for almost 4 years now. what do you expect? no other game has lasted this long, especially with a new system (xbox 360) and a new set of games (gears of war, rain bow six, lost planet, etc) coming out after halo 2 was released. it is still my favorite set of games and i still play them and always will, but after 4 years, things are gonna change to keep it up with all the new games coming out. if they didn't change anything, people would be complaining it's boring and there's nothing new. can't win either way i guess
