Halo 2 for Life!

I dislike this montage as it has to much double shotting which is easily done with a moded controller... But others like it what do you guys think?

Halo 2 for Life!

Welcome to my block party everyone is welcome lol.

Halo CE had a great story, and people are in love with that. This love blinds them into thinking that it's MP was equally good or that other aspects of the game were very good as well... Well it wasn't. CE MP was not built as good as the campaign in my opinion. It was not meant for massive MP. H2 was built for massive MP and it was the shining example of perfect MP for a console for 3 or so years after and is still regarded as one of the best MP experience in gaming history.

Getting back to the point, they have loyal fans for other reasons than the loyal fans of halo 2 have; reasons that others tend to fall in love with. A story that both captivated and enthralled it's audience to another world of Hero's and villain's like many times before but this time you were actually in their playing through the script of Halo CE. In Halo 2 you weren't given a predetermined script to follow in the MP and you had to fall in love with it in a different way creating your own stories. If you weren't willing to engage with others halo 2 was a hopeless failure.

Well We can always hope...

But have you noticed that there is MORE loyal fans to the original Halo 1 then there is to halo 2?


have you ever noticed that in most things whatever involvng a trilogy the middle one(second, for those who cant figure that out) is always the least popular?




Those are pretty cool; I added them to the front page under "Best Tributes".

I also put your name on the OP for contributing.

Ace I thought these "Memory Lane" vidoes were pretty cool. I have no idea if you came across these, but with all those links I didn't even bother to check. Either way, here they are:

Memory Lane: Lockout
Memory Lane: Ivory Tower
Memory Lane: Sanctuary
Memory Lane: Terminal
Memory Lane: Headlong

This is an ok montage. It would be better if they didn't use a modded control though... In my opinion.

BxR shot consistently? Is that because of his controller?


Yes,have a look:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9n1N-t7Q5ZU

Also sometimes it looks like this (it can look different if your moving or by how you position and move the cursor):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWLV7HyP01s

It also allows you to switch from normal shot to double shot without the need for timing and button mashing to get the double shot.

Here is something on a quad shot which is just a even harder form of a double shot and involves even greater timing which is nearly impossible without a modded controller (if not impossible).

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Quad_Shot

It is also not as easy as they make it out to be. Next time you play campaign or MP try it lol.



These are ok sorta.... well maybe.

I don't no much about 1 vs. 1 montages...

but this seems ok:

This is plain cool.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZUQsPyHkeE



lol.

If you want I could record that and put it on youtube... But I think if you explore youtube a bit you should find it. If I find time I'll look for it. If you still have trouble finding it and I cant find it in a few days I'll make a video of it for you.
Posted by: Aethryix
Where would one find that little video trailer that starts playing if you leave the Halo 2 menu running for a while?



Yeah and it's getting better as others make suggestion and I watch more videos. It's getting pretty good now.

Nice list man! Theres some awsome stuff on there.




I thought this was very well done:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU0BR25WuxE


I have a new favorite tribute:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT0K9CWzcgQ

Its proving difficult to find all of |Phalanx|'s videos does anyone know where they might be located?

I currently have M4,M5,M8, and "beat it" montage but I'm having trouble finding the rest.


Here you go.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5Xkl-du2vA


This is cool:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHVAWWlEZOgp

What do you people think of this montage?



I've dated all the montages with at least a year.

If anyone sees mistakes or wants to put in a more specific date, post in this thread the evidence you have.

Next I will be trying to find old discussions about the montages and eventually I will go over the montages in that huge collection I downloaded, on my PC, and on my youtube account.

Probably going to be a long while yet before the major parts of this halo 2 tribute page will be mostly completed...


very well done

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v27viZ37Fdc

also this,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQox3iBJfwQ


I'm thinking of combining montages by the same player and have that be gauged against other montages by other players.

I.e. I'm going to put all montages by phalanx at 3, what do you guys think.

Now I'm thinking I might make a new section for players with a large legacy of Halo 2 videos before the single montages.

what do you guys think would work best?


cut scenes mixed with there own montage... lol that is sorta a first, or at least to me (I've never seen this before for Halo 2):

This is a alright montage:

Halo 2 for Life!

I'm going to try and find and put the dates of when the montages were released and possibly more video types in the future but if someone wants to help me locate them or knows them and could tell me without me looking for them that would be great.

If you can get the year that the montage (or video) was released that is fine but exact dates like Feb. 3, 2005 would be awesome!

  • 02.12.2011 7:52 PM PDT

This is, like, the best H2 Montage thread ever. I wish I could help but I guess one way to get the info is to ask the vid-maker on the vid's comment section. You might want to number everything so other people can describe which vid is for which date.

  • 02.12.2011 8:04 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

I'm thinking of that but in the future. It would get confusing for me if I were to number them now because I would have to re-order them alot. When it's complete in a few years I will be doing that but for right now it's still really raw lol.

Quote the title (as each video has a different title) and we will find it (your suggested system is better but it has the complication I mentioned ealier).

I've expanded the Halo 2 Tribute page from the OP and a few posts in to include the front page and a bit of the second.

This will make it easier to fill in stuff and possibly locate stuff... Maybe lol.

  • 02.13.2011 10:59 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

I'm going to try out your idea for the montage section right now and see how it goes. I think I can solve the problem of renumbering by not doing that but putting intested 8.1 below 8 and than more decimal places, so than I can put the montages where I like well not needing to re-number all the time (or at least this is they way I think it will work).

I think your numbering idea is actually very good. I thought it wouldn't but now it does seem to be the better way to order things.

I will finish it tommorow.

Thanks for your suggesiton Grumpy1.

Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

That last one was pretty good. But ill NEVER be able to wtach all these in one day. Unles...

  • 02.16.2011 2:49 AM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

Yeah, I wouldn't watch all of these in one day just the ones you want.

It's fun to remember a great game when you have the time to do so.

I wish I could still play this great game but that is the cards we were dealt being H2 fans...

They were happy more about the "Game" the story that was told.

Doesn't everyone want to conquer evil aliens? ... lol

For MP it was not good. For story it was perfect way to start a gaming franchise like Halo but Halo 2 was the perfect way to blast off the a gaming franchise. Its MP was the best all time to me and that is why so many were disgusted with Microsoft and Bungie when they pulled it.

I know it was not Bungie it was Microsoft but people still blame Bungie no matter how many times people say that. They picked the partner they wanted in Microsoft and just in doing that they allowed for things like this to happen. To me it's the biggest shame in gaming history!

BxR shot consistently? Is that because of his controller?

  • 02.18.2011 3:16 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

lol. Yeah, controllers could be programmed to perform perfect BxR's, double shots, and triple shots. I played vs some in a custom and you move and you die, you have no chance. It is slightly better than a modder that kills you instantly lol.
