we all know that Halo has stellar... well, pretty good graphics and all... but im wondering about how well Halo 2 will play because of all the kick ass graphics and stuff. one thing that really stuck out for me in Halo: CE was how well the game played. you can be running around spraying bullets everywhere with a whorde of enemies coming at you (high-detail textured enemies, that is), while lobbing grenades everywhere and all this good stuff going on, and the game barely skipped a hitch (on most occasions). and same on multiplayer. so i applaud Bungie for doing a helluva job on that, because gameplay is half, if not, 3/4 for me.

anyways, will the box hold up like it did in the original? thoughts please...

thanks

They said they were working on things to make it run faster, like loading for example.

you saw the e3 trailer didn't you, well tell me what you think? Because that was some of the smoothest gameplay i've every seen.

Its cool how halo 2 is really closing the gap between in game graphics and cinematics.

*hrrm*

Halo doesn't have cinematic graphics.... every scene in the game has the same graphics(gameplay) as it does in cinematics... i'm not sure if halo2 will be working like this, but Halo did.... every cinematic, had the graphics of the gameplay!

no but the graphics you see in the cutscenes are pre-rendered and have been doctored pretty smoothly. your right in the fact that halo has no cinematics that I have seen but when it does cutscenes bungie clearly doctors some of it.

it looks good, and the fps skips a beat every once in a while so be it, i will still luv it, lol its not gonna be a "laggy" single player due to the framerate
