THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE!

Hey guys,

ever since i got halo 3 i've been playing like an addict. every night, hook up with my friends and play the newest double XP Weekend, download the new maps and go head to head in FFA ranked.

but just recently (yesterday) right before i put in my halo 3 disk to my 360, i decided. "hey, why not try halo 2 for a change? you used to play it 24/7." so i put it in and the screen told me "XBOX" and then the microsoft logo came up and then i heard that unmistakable sound of electric guitar playin the ol' halo 2 theme. and i realized what i had been missing out on.

one of the greatest games ever to come into existance. HALO 2!!
i booted up Xbox Live and at first i could'nt find an FFA game... sadly i went and tried team slayer. and when all the people joined in, and they started talking through thier mikes, i felt back where i should be. the game started and immediatley i remembered all the controls, all the graphics, the layout of every single map, every superbounce, every glitch, every combo, every wepon and tactic and i felt like i was back home, back in the past, back where everything was cool.

halo 2 has been around for a long time, it seemed like forever, and now im hooked on it. after that one game, right away i went over to all of my friends houses and said, hey lets play some h2!! and man it was fun.

and i felt so relaxed and in the zone and like halo 2 is where everyone should be.
anyone else feeling the halo 2 vibe?

RIP Halo 2

I know how ya feel. I went a really long time without playing any halo 2 and when I finally did I had so much fun. I have had much much more fun playing halo 2 than I have had playing halo 3. It truly is one of the greatest games ever made. I miss the good old days.

The sounds and familiar old sight are what give me the sense of relaxation while playing.

Can I help you, or were you just browsing?

I love my AK.

Send me a group invite...

... And I will find you, and show you your heart pulled out of your chest whilst you're still alive. :)

I know. Halo 3 is not fun anymore, it seems like work to me. Maintain a high K/D ratio, make sure you have good EXP, get good medals.

I just turn it off, and remember why I loved the Xbox in the first place; Halo 2.

Just ordered Halo 2 from a webstore for Xbox. Played it in 2004 when it first came out. Now, i have forgotten EVERYTHING! What a shame, BUT, it makes me want to try out every single multiplayer map. And to give some "Retro-feeling" to the game, ill play it on my Original Xbox. I WILL love it!

It's the exact same way with me too.

The only reason I play Halo 3 is for the double XP weekends, and I'll play SWAT now and then to try and get my 50. But other than that, it's all Halo 2.
