• You now have to hold X to get into a vehicle or pick up the flag. However, you can still quickly drop a flag by tapping either trigger.
• Grenades bounce more, and in different ways than before. Prepare to relearn all your tossing skills.
• You CAN dual wield a Sub Machine Gun with an Alien Plasma Rifle, but your aim goes to hell and back for both.
• No flashlight was present in the multiplayer demo.
• The Sub Machine Gun is powerful, and twice as much so in dual mode.
• Press and hold Y to pick up a second one-handed gun for dual mode.
• You can zoom-in with binoculars while using the SMG, but shooting instantly resets your view to normal.
• Vehicle impacts are now physics based. If you’re bumped by a slow-moving vehicle you don’t die on the spot, but you do take some damage. Using a ghost+boost = “splatter” mode.
• Death messages reflect new abilities and skills, i.e. “Zondaro Splattered Teddman.”
• Turrets and the bunker walls surrounding them are destroyable by a well-placed missile or two.
• Vehicles are rather sturdy despite now being damageable.
• The Ghost controls better, has new turning physics and animations, shoots faster, and sports new special effects under the craft.
• If you fire the Battle Rifle when not zoomed-in, it shoots three round bursts. Robocop style. This makes it very powerful, assuming you can get all three shots to hit.
• The tattoos that players can put on their armor also appear as icons that hover above their heads. These are only visible to teammates. When a player also has the flag, a flag icon appears next to their tattoo icon.
• A warning! icon appears under the crosshairs when the flag is not where it should be.
• When you are close to the flag, indicators appear on the side of the screen to point to it.
• The warthog appears to be a bit harder to flip now.
• You can now see your legs, and covies can also see the standard Elite landing animation from a first person view.
• You jump a bit higher, and in many ways the air game still feels as floaty as in the first game.

these are most things l can think about on Halo 2 did l leave any out or would someone like to talk about the new SWEAT things on Halo 2.

Trust me it won't take you very long to find similar topics. Hell every single topic has at least two clones a day.
