Halo 2.

Back in the days of Halo 2 on Xbox Live, I didn't take a shower for 2 weeks.
I just stayed home in front of my TV playing Halo 2.

When we joined The Covenant we took a oath; according to our station all without exception. On the blood of our fathers on the blood of our sons we swore to uphold that oath even to our dying breath.

lol I didn't have a life for 2 years but Halo 3 lost its touch. It just isn't H2. I hope Reach can be my 2nd life.

I know how you felt. Halo 2 had the feel of great victory. It was just amazing. The campaign felt like it was very cruel, heart warming and touching at times. Scary too, but only certain flood missions. I really had a blast with it.

You are right. Halo 3 lost it's touch and by then after a year; people we're already tired of the great game bungie has been making for years now. I am still a Bungie fan, just like you. I am waiting for reach. That can be my new life when it comes out this fall.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

Well, I showered. Besides that, we're pretty much the same. :P

Halo 2 had moments you could play over an over again. Halo 3 had none.

Halo 2 was severely rushed and it really shows, if only the team had spent the time more wisely. 7 months was spent on that demo shown in e3 of 2003, the engine unfortunately wasn't feasible for the hardware at the time and unfortunately the original story planned and so much more was cut from the game. Halo 3 would not have existed if Microsoft had given Bungie more time.

I want the Halo 2 I was promised ^ :D

Pretty harsh there.
I could cite a 14 minute Mythic Legendary level, or the ugliest and most pointlessly irritating level in the world as demonstration of a rushed product, but, I still love 3. I'd rather keep in mind 2's massively long levels and innovations we all now take for granted...dual wielding, boarding, weapons swapping, Wraith piloting, allies that will accept assigned seating, vehicles that handle like something besides a pile of bricks, swords, Arbiter, Covenant culture, Jackal snipers, skulls... I think 2 is the middle child we tend to overlook.

Look at the video and tell me you wouldn't rather have that than the one we got. :)

I've made it my life goal to never become too stressed. So if I appear to be doing nothing all the time and generally never working particularly hard on any task, that's my plan in action.

I used to spend all day/night on Halo 2 on my monitor, however when my LIVE (12 Month) ran out, snap went down. If I could though I'd do it all again, just that I got serious things and stuff to do now in life. (Job, Work, Woman, etc)

If all you cared about was the gameplay, then Reach will not be your fix.

If you cared about having fun, then Reach is an all you can play buffet.

Halo 2 Vista sincerely sucked, thanks Microsuck.

I definitely feel you on that idea. Back in the day, I was shedding man tears in expectation of the absurd greatness 2 was going to encompass. Loved the Jackal Roman shield maneuver and the "Betcha can't stick it" epicness of it all. 2 was going to be the greatest thing ever... Now, I think it kind of compares to L4D's intro versus the actual gameplay. In reality, everything that's promised in the render is actually in the game, it just doesn't come off as awesomely. Minus the cool camera angles, you're firing at tanks and pulling buddies out of harm's way. 2 is the same for me - shows some stuff and you get to do it. Maybe it doesn't come off as cool as the video, but I still think it's pretty much the greatest thing ever.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
