That is very impressive so far. I honestly believe that if Doom 3 can score a 9.4 and offer standard FPS gameplay that has been seen and done before, then I am expecting a 9.8 for Halo 2. What really makes Doom 3 a great FPS is its horrific atmosphere, sound/music, and graphics. Next is Half Life 2...then its KillZone...and then its our beloved Halo 2...it definetly has some tough competition ( quite possibily the best line up of FPS games ever released in the same year ), but I have faith in Bungie...Halo 2 will stand above them all.

half life 2 is gonna be a super awesome game but not better than halo 2. if you say that people are still gonna flame you so it would be better to keep it to yourself

The only thing I believe HL2 will beat Halo 2 on is graphics. But gameplay, multiplayer, and of course story... that is something I don't think Half Life 2 will do as good in. Oh ya, and you forgot Battlefield 2, I haven't played any of the other Battle Fields but that game looks awesome. But BF2 does come a bit after HL2 and Halo 2.

The only thing I see in half-life 2 is awesome AI and a great physics engine. Killzone, I'm hoping it's good so my friend doesn't break out in agony and die. Doom3, to me, looks kinda like a shoot em' up with good graphics.

What do you mean about the storyline? I personally believe that that is Halo's strongest point (with the exception to MP) is the storyline, it is definitely the deepest storyline I have ever seen in a game and by far the greatest.

Wait a second... Doom 3 isn't out... or are you talking about the original... cause Doom 3 should be titled "Doom 4." Any way... I don't even see how it could compete (the new Doom), no vehicles, little multiplayer support, and I have a feeling it won't have a very deep storyline, demons running through a portal from hell doesn't sound deep to me, just an opinion.

Well... I believe the point of the game was to be dark, and I personally don't like that, I see it just as the kind of game were you go running around senslessly in the dark shooting up "things." Generally just a simple run-and-gun, not much strategy.

Its a pretty good game, definately has good graphics, its a bit redundant and gets annoying, guns are decent. Its definately pretty freaky with every light in the house off and surround on loud, crazy -blam!-...
I have to say, it will compare to Halo 2 like Pong will compare to Super Mario, just not enough to do.
I hope Half Life 2 will be better, I'm not saying Doom 3 is bad though, its definately good, just a little boring. Oh, and I should also say that I'm just about 2/5ths of the way through so far, so I hope it gets crazier. :D

Because there are LOTS of amazing shadows and detail in the characters and everything, its definately a great looking game.

To answer your question, "Is it Halo 2's Prime Threat?" Complex. It won't hinder Halo 2 sales. It might have the chance to become more noticed because Doom has been around WAY longer than Halo, but I know I am getting both games. And so will many many others.
Threat to popularity, maybe. Threat to sales, hell-naw.
