Dual wielding is awsome. But that guys little write up scared me... dual battle rifles? WTF... yeah, the MC is strong enough, but isnt that kinda retarded? SMG, needler, Magnum (if it shows up) are ok, even the plasma rifle barly squeezes through as ok. But BAttle rifle??? I gues that means you can dual wield a rocket launcher too, technically all you need to do is sqeeze the trigger so why not yeah?

Not to mention the re-loading! holy crap its lame... Its like golden eye for the N64 all over again, running up ladders reloading two rocket launchers at the same time. Since when did the MC aquire the skill of reloading with his toes... this has let me down....

As far as I know Bungie only let you dual wield Plasma Pistol, Needler, SMG, Plasma Rifle.
Two handed weapons are undualwieldable!

Mountain Dew Guy:
Duel Wielding - From back in the Marathon days, duel wielding makes its triumphant return and goes a step further with combo wielding. By enabling the player to mix and match his weapons Halo 2 allows you to get creative on the Slayer front. Sorry, shotguns require two hands and, thus, cannot use this feature.

how do you get you can dual weild battle rifles our of that?

They've already stated no dual wielding on 2 handed weapons and Aristotle you should read around before making stupid assumptions!

Bye Bye Pistol - Our familiar friend the Pistol has been replaced by the more efficient Battle Rifle. This descendant of the familiar Assault Rifle now has a built in zoom similar to the pistol, but not quite as accurate. Although it lacks the precision of the pistol it is no slouch when it comes to combat. Pick up two and mow down your enemies with ease!


Pick up two! NOW WTF DOES THAT MEAN?

I heard they toned down the pistol really really far. I don't know if that's true or not, cuz I'm too lazy to look it up. >_>

Really, all they needed to do was take the scope off.

Uhh... ok, I know what the SMG is and I know what the battle rife is.

Read the article!

Pick up two! Thats dual wielding unless you have like two of the same weapon, but thats more retarded.

Alot of the things that were in that article are not very accurate... Dual wielding to Battle Rifles is one of them. It cannot be done.

Yeah, the article just got the battle rifle and SMGs mixed up, and if you had ANY common sense you would have realized that long before you wasted our time with your retarded comments.

Edit: sorry about the personal attacks, im just getting annoyed with people -blam!-ing about stuff they haven't really thought out.

You make it seem like just because you can dual wield battle rifles that you can do the same with ricket launchers or snipers but you can't. Chief can hold the battle rifle with one hand, making it dual wieldable.

No lazy link!

I'll be on my own side.

why the hell would you be able to pick up two Battle Rifles?? that would be retarded. how would you reload or zoom?? and it would take up most of the screen too. im not only talking about the BR either. any 2 handed weapon dual wielded would take up too much of the screen. the RL takes up about 1/2 already. and you wanna dual wield it?? this isnt GoldenEye, people.
