Subject: Going back to those magical moments of...Halo 2...

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Thats right, the double EXP this week was a bit dull as I never really liked the rockets gametype.
Instead I had a weekend of playing Halo 2 campaign on Heroic from start to finish and this has made me love the game all over again.
Marty's beautiful soundtrack during the moments of High Charity and the plot was uplifting, I was saddened to know that one day Halo will be dead and buried like everything else.

I may be playing it a little more as well as Halo CE as a reminder of what truly is the world's greatest game.

However I was disapointed when I went online because of a person who's gamertag I forget sounded like a seven year old screaming over the microphone about how he likes our mums. So whoever you are, I hope you get the banhammer in the face!

I've been playing halo 2 this weekend as well. It is just so much more fun than halo 3.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

*Sigh* Ah, the replaying Halo and Halo 2 the day before Halo 3. Ah, the replaying Halo right before Halo 2.

When I got H1 I quit playing Metal Arms. When I got H2 I quit playing H1. When I got H3 I played for a good while, then went back to H2, GoW and Metal Arms.

ARBITER, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT BUTTER!!! WORT WORT WORT.

When Halo 3 came out, I went back to CS 1.6.

I caught a leak on the Halo 3 forum of the script, not the one that was declared fake and made up by a fan. I read that the next day and with all of my contempt, I didn't play Halo 3 for the first 2 months it was out.

There is only one word that describes the campaign and that is beautiful. I love the moments on High Charity in the part with the arced bridges and the grass with what looks like an actual garden. Then looking out at the Dreadnaught and the ancient city with the blinking lights.

Halo/Bungie FTW!

I also feel sad about knowing that one day Halo is going to be forgot like any old game

But i'll still play it...no matter what, this is one of the greatest games already developed

98% of the people who play this game are garbage. If you're one of the 2% who isn't, copy & paste this into your signature.

We will be seeing Master Chief around for a long time to come though as Halo Chronicles and Halo Wars(though he doesn't feature in Wars) will be out soon.

It's pretty close to Star Wars for this generation. It won't be disappearing as you say.

Yeah, Bungie is probably the biggest game frachise ever. Soon they will complete the giant catapult and fire people who have PS3s into the sun.

I'm gonna miss H2 when it's multiplayer is gone. I just went back a few days ago and it was so much more fun than H3. I like H3 but H2 is a lot better. I just hope that bungie can bring us a good game like H2.

Me and my friends allways played on Coagulation & Lockout. We done the three of them against me and I would always win.

There are things I loved about Halo CE and Halo 2, the stories for both of them, Halo CE was an awesome story with long missions and interesting twists, along with Halo 2 story, but the halo 3 story is horrible, theres really no story at all, when you do a mission, its actually a mission, no storyline involved.

Also I miss the pistol and non-tinker-toy sounding Br and some of the maps, halo 3 has the forge theater and the maps featured in it, but the story is horrible.

Take out campaign and Halo 3 is 11/10. Forge, Theater, Matchmaking and Customs are brilliant.

I am one of those wierdos who has not gotten a 360, so going back to H2 is from CE for me. I typically will leave my CE disk in for 2-3 months trying different tricks and strategies before I want something different. H2 stays in the tray for no more than 2 weeks because of the limitations of strategy in campaign (did I mention I play campaign only, guess not!) I typically fart around with certain skulls till I get bored. I don't like the Arby levels much, so there is that much less to play when just doing mostly MC levels. When H2 gets taken out of the tray it is typically with Doom III, which I play through once, and then back to CE! I find that if I play D3 too much I go through grenades waaaaaaaaaaaay too quick playing Halo, since the left trigger in D3 is to sprint, and well, one has to do alot of sprinting for most of D3!
