He is right, Grumpy1's guide will help you have a better overall experience on Halo 2. In the series Halo 2 had the best campaign, on par with Halo CE's campaign. If you want to play multiplayer, just hop on xlink kai or xbox connect.

Yeah, Hitboxing = fail. For example, a certan user from the maw who has never played Halo 2 Xbox online links to this halo 2 bash video (its much less exreme in acutial gameplay) which shows hitboxing, but it also exists in halo 3, which also has unbalanced weps and n00b armor (recon).

Or better yet, get a bunch of friends together and have a LAN party.

Yep, I definitely think it's worth it. Any Halo is worth buying still. I play each and every Halo at least 6 times a week.

Awesome, no wonder your comparison opinions are balanced.

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

Save your money for HL2 if you want a campagin internet.

How do you find the time to play so much Halo and still be balanced in your opinions.

I play just as much as everyone else, but, I don't focus on one thing constantly. That's how.

I'm also on my last year of being home schooled. I'm a fast worker (Fast, but, still very thorough) so I have a lot of free time in between talking to my girlfriend, friends, and going out places.

DO NOT BUY IT!

Buy Halo 3 instead. Best action experience in a game ever.
That's not what this poll says. Looks like people enjoy both Halo 2 and 3 about the same.

Or Reach. Or ODST (for the h3mp). Or Halo 1. Or any game but Halo 2.

Do not turn this into a flame war.

Reasons to buy the Halo Games:
Halo 1: The Awesome Campaign and LAN parties, Online for PC.
Halo 2: The Campaign is awesome, and pretty cool LAN parties.
Halo 3: The Good Campaign with Skulls and Forge/Multiplayer.
ODST: The Campaign is pretty good, though to get a lot of time out of it you have to explore. Firefight is fun.
Halo Wars: This game is frustrating at times, but can be fun to obliterate your enemies. Campaign is ok. I just ended up making entire armies out of Honor guards and battling my friends.
Halo: Reach: The Campaign is pretty cool, and the multiplayer is fun + cool firefight + cool forge.

Halo 2 for Life!

H1=sweet story
H2=best game in history + best MP all time.
H3= Really bad
Hreach = Really bad
ODST = not even a game
Halo Wars = ok.

RIP Halo 2

It's worth it. But it's sad you won't get to experience it like it used to be.

Halo 2 for Life!

It's an opinion of mine.

I think a flame is when you attack someone's opinion which you did lol. So your saying don't do what I just did...
I will define my opinion a bit better.

H1 story was deep and entertaining.
H2 multiplayer was beyond perfect
H3 slip slide fest, vehicles and player movements made BTB almost impossible, no mods, no button combo's, no interacting everything was a slip and slide interaction (much the same as PC H2).
Hreach Beta = same but with custom avatars and armor abilities which distracted from what H2 began (simple fun MP that could be made complex by the user, not made complex by the creator).
Hwars = MP was fun.
ODST was not a game.

I respect your opinion but if you could elaborate with details I could comment on things we disagree on more instead of general ideas that we would just attack each other about with little reason.

I've fought mudcrabs more fierce than you!

In my opinion, best halo evar!!! Although some people still have a grudge against it due to the ending.... ehm. Otherwise immersing story, big levels, double needlers, what else can i say? It's like bungie carefully through a bunch of awsome stuff together and hit the 'awesomeness would ensue button'.

Lol, agreed although H1 is a close second.
