Charge The Gates...

36.First time the level The Arbiter starts, and you are so surprised. Then you here the other Elite say, "We are the arm of the Prophets, Arbiter, and you are the blade."

15. Spending 6 straight hours playing and ending up at 4 am with the same group in BTB that you started with. Seriously, H2 is the game that introduced me to social online gaming and for that, it will always be THE fps in my book.


Quote for freaking TRU7H. Couldn't have said it better myself. Halo 2 was the best multiplayer experience I've ever had in any game I've ever played. I will be SHOCKED if/when any game will surpass it in my books. I have my fingers crossed for Reach but honestly the Xbox 360 Live system does not lend itself to the great social gaming that Halo 2 had (especially with the *horribly* laggy user interface).

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

37. When people on Xbox Live started calling you a "Bad Kid"

I hated those guys.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

38. The dual wield weapons were actually useful when used as a single, Unlike Halo 3 where they suck balls without being dual wielded.

If it ain't my chair, it ain't my problem. That's what I say.

Halo 2 for Life!

41. The lights in the building under construction on the map Headlong (The looked cooler then the other ones).
Looks sorta like this:

42. The cool looking sign (of the golden warthog) in headlong!
Looks sorta like this:

43. The gas cylinders that, when activated, fly all over the place.
Looks sorta like this:

44. Jumping over the gap on Headlong with a warthog.
Looks sorta like this:

45 jumping into the building next to the building being constructed nearest the water with a warthog.

46. Headlong itself (as a multiplayer map).

47. A good sword fight system. H3 swords obey too much to the laws of physics, and only needs you to press B as much as possible, not be the first to attack.

  • 02.20.2010 12:16 PM PDT

I've took nothing for granted. I've owned the game since the day it came out, and by far it's the game I've poured the most hours into. Playing it over and over again, campaign and split-screen, was the most fun I've ever had.

Spartans are from Venus and Elites are from Uranus

Yeah, I took the entire game for granted. I didn't get it till 2005(At the time I was content play Halo 1 on the PC) and when I did I didn't get live until I got a 360 in 2007. And even then when I got my 360 I most just played Gears of War until Halo 3 came out. Most of my Halo 2 matches were during the week leading up to Halo 3. Lately I've been playing it to make up for not getting to know this particular Halo game as well as Halo 1 and 3.

17. Big Team Slayer (Duals) on itty bitty maps like Beaver Creek. Why isn't this even a "sometimes" in BTB in H3? Because near the end of my H2 days when I switched to H3 (took me awhile after its release before I could afford a 360) this came up ALL the time.


Now this is something I miss and I didn't play much Halo 2. But in Halo 1 since you could host your own game and as did other players you could have matches on any map with as many players as you wanted. Battle with big teams on medium sized and small maps were frantic and a blast.

In Halo 3 almost every map in btb is huge. It's not bad, big maps are awesome, but I also like having big battles on smaller maps. At least I could relive those joys in custom games. I love Cold Storage.

24. The Spectre

Why isn't the spectre in Halo 3? That thing was beast.

Probably because the Prowler was essentially the same thing.

RIP Halo 2

The biggest thing I took for granted was the maps. I was expecting Halo 3 mp maps to be just as good.

50. All of the Custom Games people made up out of thin air. Zombies, Tower of Power, CatnMouse, Tremors, Lava Man, Warthog Wars, Troy, etc. Those games revolutionized the word Custom Games .
