Aside from the cliffhanger, what parts of Halo 2 did you absolutely hate last night?

I for one kept trying to splatter people with the banshee, only to bump them from one side of Coag to the next. As well, i forgot how crazy the Homing rockets were.

I love Halo and video games. I started a business called "70MGame", I setup LAN events, tournaments, and Midnight Launch Events. Check us out in the link below.

I grew up playing Halo CE and have never stopped loving it since. I have one of the biggest Halo collections you will ever see with the crown jewels being life size statues of Master Chief, Kat, and Emile. Im hoping to have the entire Noble Team soon as well as other Halo statues

Button glitches. The sword. Melee lunges. Plasma grenade damage after the first update. Lock on rockets.

Ya but this is one of the greatest games of all time. I would bet that if Halo didn't become as popular as it did, we may not be playing 360's right now. At the time, Halo 2 was the greatest game to play, nothing could rival it. Are you going to seriously sit there and say u didn't have a few good memories with this game?

Gotta say, I'm not missing that SMG at all. Worthless gun.

Some more hate-filled than others, though. :)

For me, Halo 3 is getting to be a tired and in a lot of ways sad affair so you can just imagine how I viewed it's last-gen predecessor. It has some great qualities to it that, for the time made for awesome gameplay but after 1/4 of a lifetime of wonderous and new gaming experiences I could not overlook some of the issues that I was once able to fly by out of ignorance...

Complete ineffectiveness of all but a few weapons....
Horrible spawning layouts.
Horrible map design (Blood Gulch is the drunken work of the devil)
The Sniper Rifle, and it's heat-seaking bullets.
and so much more...like the fact Bungie put blanks in the needler which feeds into the first complaint but the fact that the weapon did not work deserves special mention.

I was able to put up with it for an evening but at no point did I feel that the years I've spent apart from Halo 2 were in any way a mistake. It's a game far past it's prime and it's about time that it be retired, for whatever reason.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

How good people were with the sniper -_- Im good myself but i haven't been on the game in so long.

no offense but every 50 in snipes in halo 3 would lose to a lvl 30 in halo 2.

but yeah snipers

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Noob Combo is just brutal.


And its funny to see people try and dodge rockets, they go so fast...

Yep. Even for the campaign you know? Humanity is fighting a losing war and the military gives their soldiers THAT gun?

Thats like sticking someones hand down there pants while they are in the casket. Funny, yet not cool.

If you build it, I can destroy it.

My most hated aspect of H2 was not noticable until I played H3. I use bumper jump on H3, and on H2 I could not find a good button layout that allows you to melee and scope easily. I finally just used the right stick melee button setup but I couldnt scope fast. So I ended up trying to get into melee range and I quite easily out meleed most people, who I asume were using default. But on ranged fighting I died fast because of the lack of good scoping.

Oh yeah, and blam the swords, they can attack from almost twice as far away as H3! I felt like I was getting killed from accross the board... not literally.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

The general glitches, and much poorer net-code than Halo 3 offers.

Aside from Glitches and net-code Halo 2 multiplayer BEASTED Halo 3's.

Oh yeah, and the Sword is glitchy as -blam!-.

If you miss you flying into the sunset, its insane.

Oh hey, claw wants to say 'wassup?'


Other than the stuff I already was expecting going back, I never realized how much I'd miss not being able to see my enemies secondary weapon strapped to their back. Never knowing if the guy I was fighting was gonna switch out to a worthless SMG or a sword really caught me off guard at first.

SMG starts. Thats pretty much it.
