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.

Dam that's a good video. Thanks Grumpy for showing us how much the game remained the same from the e3 version to the final version. It would be nice to play the e3 demo.

I never really knew there was just one sound track for both, that amazed me.

What's funny is the finished version looked pretty good and if the e3 demo was the final version I would crave to play the rejected one, lol.

Not only does it appear that they reused the concepts of the demo in the finished product, but also that the graphics were more sleek in the demo somehow. After doing some research, (watching the Halo 2: LE bonus disk,) I found out that they spent almost as much time creating that demo as the actual game. For me at least, that is amazing.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Man I thought some parts from the E3 demo were more awesome.

If that's true, what stopped them from making the most epic campaign (Halo 2's campaign is already epic, but it could have been even more epic. I read about a Forerunner tank level that is described as awesome)? Laziness, budget, or Microsoft?

Time restraints. I saw the same disk. Basically, they did not have a set and done time table and had to work nonstop for the second half of the time provided. Simply put, Bungie procrastinated.
