Halo 2 Beats Everything!
(even the tank xD)


Well said.

Halo 2 was the greatest game of all time, evar.

Forge doesn't matter, in Halo 2 people improvised to make customs. We ran on HONOR SYSTEMS to decide how zombies and troy worked. That's how good the community was.

Dont be surprised that Halo 2 got way more votes than Reach. The poll is in a biased forum.

Halo 2 most certainly.

Halo 2 is the best multiplayer game ever created, there was always a fine line between who was good, and who was garbage. Every Halo game made after it never met the standards that Halo 2 had

I do not always make signatures for a forum. But when I do, I advertise my Twitter. @NamesBemy
Also, Reddit FTW.

Obviously H2 will prevail in the post, we are in the Halo 2 forum, remember? Isnt it obvious that here people prefer Halo 2? If they didnt, they would be in the Reach forum.

My first xbox live gamertag was Gangsta Tic but now I am Sir Tic after I lost the information with that account. I wish I could change my name to Sir Tic here.

Halo: CE & Halo 2 for both the xbox and PC. :)

Halo 2 forever!

hello im hungry

Halo 2 by far. The game play was much better, I think that Halo:Reach was just made to show off how amazing you can make the graphics. The multi-player in Reach is non-competitive, and I can't even fathom why you would put in a jet-pack, or armor lock.. Halo is meant to be a straight up FPS without the need for useless armor and special abilities. The reason why people loved H2 was the straight forward game play, and the fact that it was the skill of the player that mattered, not what so called imitation CoD perk they have to weasel their way out of dying.

Halo 2 by far the best fps made not say the greatest of all time but it had a great campaign and superb mutliplayer everything was well balanced unlike reach and h3 getting stuck on walls/objects still ticks me off in h2 was smooth on everymap not alot of junk laying around so u can look at the graphics. all around halo 2 has the best gameplay reach and h3 not so much there just pretty to look at.

  • 10.26.2010 10:44 AM PDT

halo 2 is by far better. and to all who want to still play look up xbox connect or xlink kai.

Halo 2 was far more competitive then Halo Reach is. I am a veteran gamer from the old days of halo 2, I was a former level 50 in Team Snipers "before the rank reset for Tombstone and Desolation". After playing Halo Reach for the past 2 weeks, I feel ashamed for matchmaking. People don't play competitively in matches like team slayer, etc. There is no drive or pressure from the games matchmaking system to push people to wanting to win or to even improve their skills.

At least in halo 2, people pushed themselves to win at any costs once you passed a certain level rank of 25-30. People went all out, and self evolved in skills and tactics in order to win and rank up higher. One loss in halo 2 after the rank of 35 meant an instant de-rank. Reach dumbed down the competitiveness of online gameplay in favor of attracting a wider audience by removing the former number rank system.

Campaign wise, Halo 2 campaign was better thanks to the different campaign view points presented by the game by both the arbiter and the Spartan 117. The storyline flowed very smoothly from one characters point of view to another without losing any impact to the game's storyline. Something halo 3, halo odst, and halo reach campaign lacked. Their campaigns were short and to the point, and as a result it missed out on the rich story telling of campaign.

hate to say it bro, but a 50 in halo 2 was impossible to get legit. For example, bridging,standybying and modding not to mention how hard it was to find a match in the late 30s early 40s. The highest i was able to get legit in team snipers was 35 and 42 bridging. After that it was an all out modfest lol.
O and not to be harsh or anything, if you were a 50 in halo 2 how the hell couldnt you get one in halo 3 you liar..lol

Halo2 modding was annoying in matchmaking i still think that its matchmaking blows away Reachs becasue Reach is so like COD

It was said that Superman could not be turned into a zombie, Chuck Norris decided to test this theory. We now know Superman as Jason Voorhee's.

Halo 2 made online gaming, Xbox and the Halo franchise what it is today, no question.
The endless hours i spent playing my mates on this game was crazy, it was'nt like other games, it had this atmosphere the could'nt be compared. I think this is were Halo 3 did'nt carry at all. Don't get me wrong Halo 3 was ok, it just was'nt, fun.

Reach brought back that atmosphere in the series for me and I love Bungie for that, but, it still doesnt compare to what Halo 2 had.

Reach = Awsome, Halo 2= Epic piece of gaming history

Fada beo Halo 2!

Halo 2 is the best game ever, after Halo 1 it's such an exiting change but after 2 it was somewhat repeated

  • 10.31.2010 8:29 PM PDT

Well, I've been saying Halo 2 is the best game ever made, and I will stick to that forever. Halo 3 wasn't that bad it's just that everyone had sky-high expectations based off of Halo 2. Halo Reach really is like CoD. I like Reach a lot but it will never compare to Halo 2. Halo 2 is a game of its own, it is uncomparable.

  • 10.31.2010 9:09 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

H3 had really bad BTB but really it was bungie redoing everything for the xbox 360 and everything falling apart to me. Reach is much of the same.

H2 was much of the same as H1 but that was good thing but in the case of reach and H3 it was a very bad thing.

When you moved in H2 and interacted it felt as if you were their controlling your avatar body as if it were your own body. In H3 and Hreach I feel like I'm controlling a robot and not myself not a human body... ect.

easiest question ever halo reach reach pwns cause u costumize forge armour abilitys fly stuff its all good halo 2 was worst game ever made halo 1 was awesome

  • 11.01.2010 12:48 AM PDT

-K

One of the main reasons I would choose Halo Two is because of the glitches and fantastic Easter Eggs in the game. If it were as cleanly built as Halo Reach, It would be lacking a bit of it's upsides. Both of the games in fact have upsides and downsides that make them better and worse than each other. Though, If I really had to pick to only ever play one? I would say Halo Reach, Because the Forge options in it are limitless, And give the game a great head start.

Defiant to the end!

This is a difficult choice...

Halo 2 - Better Campaign, dual wielding, lots of fun glitches to do, skulls with some decorative stuff, Scarab Gun, "Boss battles"(ie. Heretic Leader, Prophet of Regret, Tartarus)
Halo Reach - The Armory, Forge 2.0, awesome easter eggs, better graphics, more game types

I haven't voted yet :(

Hard to say. H2 for campaign but HR for Multiplayer and Campaign
I like them both

Bow Chika Bow Wow

Halo 2 just can't be beat. It came out when xbox live first came out so it capitalized off of being the best fps experience of the time. Along with great custom games and a community that war ballin it just can't be beat.
