I know Halo 2 will kick some serious ass, but with all of these new physics, weapons, enemies, blah blah blah, will it have the same magic that the first one had? Will the last level be fun to play yet leave you wanting to play it again after the 40th time playing it? Will it be the same running around in an insane rampage shooting the retarded grunts or will they be too smart for that? Will you be able to go and kill all of your marines without losing any shield or will they acctually kill you? WILL YOU?!?!?! WILL YOU!?!?!

While I certainly do not promote the idea of blind-faith, there's simply no logical reason to doubt Halo 2's astoundingly talented development team. Sure, there's always a what-if but what good does that do us? I'm sure the majority of us Halo veterans have come to know and love the vibe of Halo and more so than anything, hope that Halo 2 has the same feel. Let's just hope Halo 2 isn't another Quake 3 - Pretty, but comparatively empty.

If it's any consolation, almost everyone who has had a chance to play it (...bastards) has confirmed first and foremost that Halo 2 seemed like a natural extension of Halo; that the feel and essence of Halo remains intact. Here's to hoping.

yeah, thats a good point.

Grunts will still only take a few shots to kill, so even if thier smart, they will be fun to play around with!

But the haunting question to me, since I heard the they can send out hunting parties and such, is will I still be able to kill them in their sleep without others awaking. I must know. That was the funniest thing since ED EDD & EDDY.

Bungie is human. If their game sucks I'm sure they will notice it- and change it before it comes out. ;-)

Man I totally agree with you Notorious M. Killing them in there sleep without others waking was awsome beyond words, fun fun fun. Halo2 will be magic, theres no reason to doubt the team behind halo has gone backwards instead of forwards.

The reason for Halo being so "Halo like" (lol, had no other way to describe it) was because of the creators, Bungie. They are the BOMB! : )
