I Believe these are the games that will put up the most compitition towards Halo 2:

* Half Life 2: Part 1's Story had twist upon Twist and has a large fanbase.
* Doom 3: Looks F-ing Scary.
* GT 4: Most realistic Racing Sim Ever
* MGS3: A stealth Game That lets you eat bloody animals, use camo, and oh yeah your in Nam!
* Shell Shock Nam: Looks full of action, and is true to what really happened.
* Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory; This series makes the most drastic improvments I've ever seen, and looks nothing less than stunning.
* GTA: S.A.; I hate to say it but this GTA looks like a Giant Leap from Vice City.

I would say it would be close because those damn ps2 fans will buy san andreas why were buying halo 2. But Halo 2 will take it and that will show all those ps2 fans out there which system is worth getting.

Not all are arrogant fools. Just like Xbox fanboys, they refuse to play on anything besides their system. But fear not, there are a select few who have branched out willingly (not because the were forced to) and played Halo and other great Xbox games.

The Xbox is no doubt the better system, too bad it has NO good exclusives. The PS2 has the largest and best library of games due to all their third party support. The GC has the best exclusives in my opinion, but there aren't really enough yet. The Xbox has Halo......oh wait......that's on PC....... Oh well. You've got KOTOR. Oh wait.......Hmmm.......

why should we even care?!?!? Really all of these magazines (except OXM ask yourself what other game would win?) give the award to the game they find most intriguing and enjoyable but, it seems xbox is seen as the step child of the nex-gen consoles which, i believe makes their answer a bit bias and unfair. For Halo 2 to win in a magazine that isn't xbox exclusive it will have to blow everything contending out of the water (not saying it wont!)

farcry is not innovative, halo was, it started before most famous fps were out, like the battlefield games, etc, halo 2 will still beat half life 2, ive seen videos of half life 2:
Here is the best of each category:
graphics: half life 2 (slightly better)
physics: half life 2 (slighlty better)
gameplay: halo 2
controls: halo 2
A.I.: halo 2
Game modes: halo 2
Multiplayer: halo 2
Single PLayer: Halo 2
Online features: halo 2
Equality: halo 2
Enemies (animations, diversity): halo 2
polygon use: halo 2
innovation: halo 2
popularity: halo 2
story: halo 2
music: halo 2
more addictive: probly halo 2(the way half life 2 looks)
and halo 2 would beat doom 3 easily, and it would beat half life 2 in many other categories


most of those are subjective (although I still think Halo 2 will win hands down...)

Half-Life 2 looks great, but only on a greatest of hardware...You are going to need $250+ Graphics Card, a couple hundred dollar processor and $100 worth of RAM to see what every reviewer will be talking about form a graphical standpoint...but graphics should the least of the qualities a person should look for in game. In terms of gameplay Halo 2 looks to be a lot better than that of Half-Life 2, sure it has awesome physics and graphics, but that seems like thats the only thing every Half-Life fan is talking about, as for GotY I think Halo2 has the best shot. While HL2 is by far more technically advanced, Halo 2 looks like it going to have a better single-player and a damn good MP on Xbox live. Also, another reason is I hated the first HL I don't know what everyone got so exciting over it, it was a very medocre shooter in my opinion, while Halo 1 is one of my favorite games. Theres my .02

You are asking on a Halo 2 forum full of Halo 2 fanboys, if Halo 2 is gonna be the Game Of the year....now what do you think will be the majority answer?


I myself think that Halo 2 will be awesome, but it wont be game of the year, most likely, I have my bets on Metal Gear Solid 3.

im sry to say that halflife sux


Halflife does suck. So does CS and Brute Force and -blam!- games that are wanna be halo.

HALO 2 = Game of the Millenium in my eyes. <---My opinion so don't jump me ;)

See what i mean? I only said that for the reaction, and look how he reacted. Personally, I do not think that there are enough contenders yet.

Wow, for some reason .. I doubt any of you have played Halo 2, or know much about it. Since this is my guess, I think that none of you are reasonable to judge a game. Ever heard of.. don't judge a book by it's cover. See if it's game of the year, after the game comes out.

we shall see....if the gameplay can live up to its standards.....Bungie is making a HUGE gamble on gameplay like they did the first. Graphics wise....we have not seen anything that is what the final build will be. Have they not kept much of the game underwraps? Halo2 graphics could proly compare to anyother game out there but it is being scaled back texture wise. The gameplay, if done correctly, could be the tie-braker
