Yeah, you're right, Halo 2 is the greatest game of all time.
Everytime I read posts like these on the Bungie.net forums, I become slowly more tempted to join the "Halo is overrated" camp. As a Halo fan, I must say, no Halo game comes close for being "teh bestest gaem evar!!!". I believe I'm in the minority of being a moderate, sane Halo fan. I mean, I don't mind if someone personally find Halo to be their favorite franchise. But claiming it as the "da best game ever!" is just ignorant.
I love Halo, but this blind fanatical praise towards this series needs to stop. I will say that the fanatical following towards Halo isn't as bad as the blind following fanaticism towards Ocarina of Time, Metal Gear Solid 4, and dare I say... Half-Life 2. I love Ocarina of Time and Half-Life 2 by the way, MGS4? Not so much.
Welcome to the club. Expect to get flamed by kids who won't see the flaws in the final build. Many of those were fixed in h3. Because I saw the light, I'm now the most hated person in the forums.
In fact, the h2 forum got crazier after it died.

I wish you could've re-titled this thread "What Halo 2's multi-player should've been". Then again, Halo 3 was what Halo 2 should've been... for the most part. I know a lot of blind, Halo fanatics are going to send Hate PMs to me, but I'm not harping TOO much on Halo 2 here. Halo 2 is in fact a good game, but it's not the "ultimate competitive" Halo game fanatics claim it to be. It had the worst weapon balance, worst hit-boxes, and worst melee system out of all the Halo games. It did contain the best maps on the other hand.
But hey, what do I know? I mean, I played a lot of PC multi-player first-person shooters before I tried any Halo game. I can't possibly comprehand the "greatness" that was Halo 2, can I?
I'm going to be flamed by a Halo 2 fanboy in 3... 2... 1...
I agree with this. The kids in this forum need to learn. You will probably be flamed by kids who will say "UR KD SUX" and can't tell which games are good. Then as long as you don't give em your tag, you are good.
