halo 2 causes too much stress and pisses people off because of the ranking system... it stresses people out when they lose a level, because 1. why the hell do you lose a level in a video game...most other games i played you can only gain levels and never drop.. and when people drop levels they get all pissy and are like "wtf i know i'm better than a 27 except we get nubs on our team all the time" or another lame excuse to cover up for how everytime you see some one and you both start shooting with your smgs the first person to shoot first will 85% of the time win. it also pisses people off they get standbyed or get hacked against in matchmaking which will result in the stress thing i just explained...



seriously, when was the last time you got pissed or stressed out from playing halo1 on xbc... and for you noobs who don't konw what xbc is i suggest you go kill yourself. with a needler. if that's even possible. anyway, how many times have you ever been cheated against while playing halo1 online. i truely can say never for over a year of xbc... i've had my doubts once and that was it. but the kids were just really good. people always say "oh, well, they must not like halo1 because hey never played it" that's mainly wrong. 70% of the people that don't like halo1 is because they were never good at it... seriously how much skill does it take to point and shoot with an smg... my freakin mom has played a couple of times on live on my account right after the update and owned some people in head to head... that goes to prove that a 46 year old women can play halo2 and still win against people.


halo2 is a joke.

halo2 used to be good... but then they actually made the game.

Overall I like Halo: CE better then Halo 2, but Halo 2 is by no means bad.

Good things about Halo: CE

1- Levels where much better IMO, they felt more open to me, had a better lay-out.
2- The marines as a whole looked way cooler IMO. They have a grit on they're face. They're armor is also better looking, more metal plates and its all rusty. They look battle worn.
3- The story flows better from level-to-level. Feels like more of a break. Halo 2 I feel like they're rushing me throw the game.
4- You get much more marines in Halo: CE. I love the marines, and in Halo 2 you only get about 3 with you at a time... somtimes 4. Only at a few parts are there more then that.
5- Even though the graphics are worse they tent to put more details in everything. The writing on ammo packets, on the walls and everywhere, I can read it all. Halo 2 they take down the texters on stuff like that.

Bad things about it

1- The AI for the marines is horrible. They roll into incoming fire, they shot each other all the time, they can't escape a grenade for they're life.
2- The pistol

Good things about Halo 2

1- The Graphics are vary much improved.
2- The marine's AI is improved.
3- You can play as the an Elite.
4- pistol was fixed
5- More of everything.

Not realy the bad things about it, but more of the things that I don't like.

1- Duel weilding... yes I don't enjoy it. I like to keep things more professional. If duel weilding was practical, we would see peole use it in real life, the millitary would issue people two guns. Yes this is a game and yes Master Chief could aim with two guns because of his suit, but if we went with what his suit could do, we would look around faster then we can see and run 40 mph, but that wouldent be fun would it? I think all it does is mess up weapon balancing. Ever wonder why the needler still sucks, even though they said it would be awsome. Think of what would happen if you had two of those things? Now I don't think they should take it out, but taking the time to balance it would be nice. I can see why its not though, bungie was rushed making Halo 2 and I think they'll be rushed again with 3, now that they HAVE to get it done by the time PS3 comes out.
2- Cut sences freak and spaz-out with the texters, but that I realy don't care about, just thought I would put it.
3- They took out dark-blue jackles! Go back and play Halo 2, they're not there!
4- No AR, my favorite gun... but the BR is good also.
5- Level lay-out feels boring, mostly straight lines. Not enough big open areas with choices like in Halo the level in Halo: CE.
6- I would say XBOX Live is filled with idiots and children, but thats not realy a problem with the game so... Oh I praying to god for a Human vs. Covenant game type. That dident happen.
7- More of a let down then somthing wrong, but does anyones else agree the Earth levels are a major let-down. The E3 demo level look awsome! I was extremly disappointed with the ones in Halo 2.

Again, I'm not saying bungie suck or anything, or that Halo 2 is horrible, only saying why I like Halo: CE

Even with its problems, Halo 2 still beats every FPS out there, minus Halo: CE of course. Bungie is still my favorite game company. Now, back to playing Myth...

Halo 1>Halo 2

This is due largely to the fact that Halo 1 had a better physics engine than Halo 2. Halo 2 uses that Havok crap where everyone can jump to the moon and melees lunge like crazy. Halo 1 used its own physics engine which worked perfectly. The gameplay was fast-paced and action packed. Halo 1 multiplayer was probably about a hundred times better than Halo 2s multiplayer is now. The only good thing about Halo 2 is that it has XBL. That is not a wonderful thing because now there are all these 10 year olds who scream and whine. In Halo 1 there were only good players who were probably above 13 playing on XBC. Anyone who says Halo 2 is better than Halo 1 needs to play Halo 1 some more cuz bungie has brainwashed you into loving their crappy game over their masterpiece.

Well, I have to say that I like Halo 1 a bit better. I don't know why, but I just enjoy the game more. Although halo 2 is great, I think that it is based too much on multi player. Over all, for whatever reason, I like halo 1 better, but Halo 2 comes very close.
