Do not give up hope, Emulators for the xbox will be coming out, which means free games which means more people and people that are only PC gamers will hop on. Also your probobly saying you can't play online with emulators, not true, if you go download a PS1 or N64 emulator you can play them online =). 2nd option. Remember last year when they released H1 for the marketplace, well they will be doing that in a couple of years for H2. We will gain back a lot of people and will have a better matchmaking system, and it will attract a lot of old and new players...

This is not based on fact, but based on a huge possibility. The only confirmed one is the emulator, but I fear the emulator may not be able to connect to the matchmaking system.

sorry for any poor grammar, just wanted this to be announced, because I truly dislike H3 because of bungies poor decision making on catering to the BK's, horrible maps and -blam!- ranking system. H2 was way more competitive and better everything.

Who here thinks they should make a uber powerful Grunt Plasma Rifle thats shoots out naked flaming Chuck Norrises?

Too bad xbox emulation isn't very far along, and you have to have a really good computer to run it.

Halo 2 will never be dead, look at Halo PC's community, its still going strong.
And look on the plus side, all the little kids moved to the brand new, everyone plays it Halo 3.

Why are you here?

People playing Halo 2 on the computer will be able to aim easier but maneuvering will be harder.

The OP's views on H3 are null and void in the face of raw numbers.

After reading Halopedia, I dont really want halo 3 anymore. Sangheili (elites) are by far, the coolest aliens to ever exist, the fact that Halo 3 scrapped the coolest classes of the sangheili, (councilor, ranger, honor guard, ultras, even the zealots, ect.) makes me sad.

Anyway, Halo 2 forever. The only gun for me is the Battle Rifle.

Halo 3 is just plain nooby.

Numbers can be deceptive. It could be that 2.5 million deadheads just followed the pied-piper (Bungie/Microsoft) to the river (H3) and 20,000 to 40,000 smart people didn't. Just another way of looking at numbers.

Thus he came alone to Angband's gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth in single combat. And Morgoth came.

It's kindof disappointing how long it takes to find a Hardcore match.

Halo/Bungie FTW!

I just don't think Halo CE or Halo 2 are going to die

Halo CE > Halo 2 > Halo 3

I dislike Halo 3. Alot.

  • 07.25.2008 7:23 PM PDT

It's like a retard riding a bicycle while eating hot wings.
Sometimes you have to take the bike seat off to really enjoy it.

I wish they would release Halo CE on 360. I hate playing games on the computer.

Since organized communities are usually more enjoyable, you should take your time to read the forum rules to save yourself some trouble and help keep the forums clean :-)

I'm assuming you mean Custom Edition...

Kind of opinionated, are we not?

  • 07.26.2008 7:34 AM PDT

Not to be taken offensivly, but, can any thread in the Halo 2 forum go without making comparisons to Halo 2 and 3?
I mean, this thread had almost nothing to do with Halo 3, so it's not needed.

  • 07.26.2008 9:34 PM PDT

This is Likwid

I hope H2 won't die. I love it. Halo 3 is way too slow for me, and definitely much easier. We need more people to start playing Halo 2 again!

No kidding. I miss halo 2 dearly. The good old days, the memories, the competition, the backflips, the losses, the heart pounding slayer games, the clans and playlists, owning high leveled people, the maps. Sigh, only a few thousand people play these days.
