halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

Its not perfect, but its good substitute for halo 2 xbox when you want to play on xbox live with friends. They could have done soo much more, but they wasted a good opportunity. Its better then not playing halo 2 on xbox live.

No. It's not extreme. And I'm not just talking about the PC version. On both platforms, it's a horridly noobified game that narrowed the learning curve much so that the most retarded of gamers could feel like "zomg uber pwners" after a few hours of playing the game, which ended up setting the bar really low in the eyes of other developers which ended up spitting out crap game after crap game with the same built-in aimbots, bullet magnetism, oversized hitboxes. ect.

In short, Halo 2 was a terrible game that not only made the delusion of skill something to brag about, but also marred the FPS genre as a whole.

Now I'm all for casual gamers, but when you have systems in place where those casual gamers that would get slaughtered in any game that takes real skill are talking an insane amount of crap about how "good" they are at Halo 2, it crosses the line into absurdity. I get sick of reminding these idiots that they'd never hold their own without the noobifications that are ever so abundant in games like Halo 2.

In FPS games, skill should be rewarded, and a lack of skill should encourage players to get better. Game devs need to stop putting stuff in that brings about that delusion that they're good, despite blowing harder than a Category 5.

Lol that's funny, because you're one of the only people I've seen call Halo 2 a bad game. Considering how Halo 2 was viewed as the best of the series, you must think anything after Halo: CE was complete crap.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

That's what everyone in the halo 2 forum did when someone posted a anti h2x thread with reasons. I can't bring it up, though, since the OP got permabanned for making an "I told you so" thread when h2x got shutdown, when the forum was filled with "zOMG RIP H2X" threads by people who hadn't played h2x in a while. Anyone who played it before the shutdown and isn't a blind fanboy will tell you it took forever to matchmake in h2x. H3 is the same way now.

Either way, the h2 forum is full of fanboys blinded by nostalgia.

I must admit he is being a bit hard on a game that should be considered un-important/causal, (despite the fact that bungie/a bunch of little kids say otherwise.) But he has a point, it IS noobified to such a point where little kids come on thinking that H2 is a hardcore game, and they are "pro" at it. And that ends up ruining the game for him.

And so is the Halo Reach section,
They actually believe Bungie could add new armors and firefight voices as DLC.

The stupidity never ends.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Well, when a point is completely inarguable...

Actually, a lot of devs are putting completed content into their games at release, and later on, charging DLC price just to unlock that content. For all we know, Bungie may have more armor and voices in the game already, and are waiting a few months before charging people to unlock it.

Modders have found all the content.
And Bungie can't add more content unless they released huge free updates like EA does.

Yeah, that is the best effective technique there is.

With Bungie, they limited themselves to adding-on DLC, when they incorporated their tags and resources into a map file.
Once a map is compiled, there is no way of adding anything to it.

The only thing they can add is, maps which allocate as campaign/firefight/invasion and multiplayer.

I have a hard time explaining to dumb-blams!-
But it seems you've understood it.

DLC = Disk Locked Content

Halo Combat Evloved for PC is better but Halo 2 PC is great. I play it whenever I want to remind myself of old times.

Wow, Halo 2 Vista is my second-favorite Halo game after Halo Reach. You guys just should stop complaining. Don't like it? Don't complain about it. Just shut up with all your whining. Do you want some cheese with that whine?

Your second favorite game is a noobified piece of crap geared towards players that would get slaughtered in a game that actually takes skill to win.

By the way, funny you mention skill, I can dominate in counter-strike 1.6, I did so in the past, And I still play hl2DM, pretty damn good.

Of this I am highly doubtful.

just learn to accept that Halo 2 vista was a good game.

Why would I "learn to accept" something that's completely untrue?

I accept w/e Dusk says about H2V.
He may be more about gameplay, but he still presents a valid point.

My reason why I hate this game was how this game was intentionally built like crap, to run like crap, and how the Editing Kit was sabotaged.

Am I happy? no. -_-

Some things are impossible to do. Attempting to accept h2v as a good game is similar to accepting this as a good game. And if you think "4.8 isn't that bad", then that game was so bad that Games on Demand PULLED it.
