man, i played halo 1 split screen for 7 hours straight today... and not even 20 minutes ago i stopped playing halo 2 cause i got bored after 3 games. its just bland, halo 1 EVERY thing feels cool when u do it, headshot with a snipe feels good cause its harder then halo 2, 3 shot kill feels good, getting a Killtacular with only 2 people other then u playing is INSANE, everything is just better.

anyone else feel the same way?

Halo owns that wierd game "2" that bungie made.

It's strange, it has the same characters but I found no similarities in gameplay.

2 is supposed to be the sequel to Halo...how odd.

Heck, you guys should try www.xbconnect.com. You can play Halo CE (not Halo PC) online for free.

Yes, but It's NOTHING like split screen with somebody playing right beside you.

Personally I only like Halo 1 because it was the first introduction into the Halo world (kinda like how the Matrix was awesome, but the other two went to hell). But still, playing XBL is still good to pass a few hours...

I still, and always will, find halo 2 better in everyway. I am glad of bungies improvements to everything.

Halo 1 was great, but now with halo 2, halo one is just a game with bad graphics, reptitive gameplay, a few un even weapons, and no xbl (not that i would need it)

why do people say that? I love all three matrixes the same, (maybe the third was a little better)

Halo:ce is way better than halo2. I don't know why Bungie would play Halo2 when they can play Halo:ce. Other than the money, I don't know why they even bothered making Halo2...

yeah, i wish Bungie never made halo 2. Halo was a unique masterpiece. If they had to make an online enabled game then they should have just made some one off thing for that purpose. Because the game wouldn't be a sequel to the greatest game ever i doubt there would be much complaining. People would enjoy playing game x for some laughs over xbox live and still be able to play halo.

Halo 1's splitscreen was amazing because even though it was on a half a screen it still felt open and wide. Halo 2 has a clastraphobic camera especially in splitscreen play.

That is quite a statement considering Halo 2 is the only FPS with "better graphics" than Halo 1. What makes Halo 2 not as repetitive has Halo 1? Have you ever noticed how smooth Halo 1's gameplay is?

Oh man, I agree completely. I had 3 friends over and we were playing Halo Xbox and also some new/modded maps and it was WAY better than h2 by a longshot.

Yeah, because Halo made splitscreen cool and back in 2001 there wasnt even X-Box Live.

im sure liton isnt going to read this but if he thought weapons were unbalanced im sure he got his ass handed to him because he sucked with pistol, i didnt find the gameplay all that repetative, and ive laned the game with the same 8 ppl since it came out and they have never been -blam!-, xbl is ok for a few games but i always get tired of it and wonder when out next lan is going to happen, last one was 2 days ago and it kicked ass.... i wonder how old liton is that he likes less skill based gameplay

Maybe. Halo:CE on split screen was fun but I had only 3 friends to play with, now I have XBL and a million of people to play with. Halo:CE is a pro and balanced game while Halo 2 is a fun game.

Okay, Halo 2 Fanboys just imagine Halo 2 without XBL. It wouldn't be near as acclaimed as people treat it and you would notice more of its flaws.

Yes, I know. We play on XBC with me and a friend, and sometimes a third person on this side against other teams. It's great having them right here. Tons of fun. I never try to play XBC as a single player. Causes too much lag getting a game of even 2 on 2.

I enjoyed playing co-op on halo its the best way to play legendary but after palying halo2 on xbl i've got used to a full screen and when i went to play co-op on halo2 i couldn't stand it for long.

Halo2 has tainted me!

Halo2 is a great game because of multiplayer and xbl only. I enjoyed single player but nowhere as much as halo:ce the only reason i have halo2 is xbl multiplayer.

Halo:ce and halo2 fanboys are exactly the same they just argue about differant aspects of each game.
