Halo 2 was the best of them all for many reasons.
1. You didn't just shoot everything that moves in Halo CE, You can run its ass over in a warthog.
2. The glitches, enough said?
3. Your Spartan looked like they were in a fight unlike in Halo 3 or Halo CE.
4. The Brute could/would go ape-blam!-, which was funny as hell.
5. Scarab Gun, Didn't do that in Halo CE, Halo 3, or Reach now did they?
These are horrible reasons. IMO it's second to Halo CE and tied with every other Halo game.
1. In Halo CE you can't just invis run through half of the entire game.
2. The glitches, are literal game flaws that showed improper coding for the game. Don't get me wrong some are fun, and map exploring is great, but toting them as definitive things making a game better is silly.
3. Umm, I guess. I like the look of the spartans in every game, but that's me.
4. They were very predictable and easy once berserking.
5. Oh this gun is awesome!! Unfortunately as I can only use it in one level, things like the tribute room in Reach become comparably just as awesome.

Lol, you think CE had no glitches? My pals at HIH/jumpers would beg to differ. If they had put CE on LIVE first it would have had all the glitches that a first LIVE game would have had.
CE had eggs and H2 had eggs, yet you badmouth one H2 egg. it's also on 2 levels and fun as hell to get but I imagine you did not bother to really find out.

I never said CE had no glitches at all. I pointed out that using a games glitches as positives isn't right. I wouldn't use CE's glitches to promote it either. I didn't badmouth the scarab gun at all either. In fact it is still my favorite egg in any halo! I merely pointed out the limits to this egg (my bad for forgetting other level) and compared it to other very awesome eggs.

I have searched for and experienced every egg found for halo (never made the tower to tower jump myself in halo CE yet). I only pointed out how I wished the scarab gun was on every level because that was the same as if I would say I wish there was a completely different awesome tribute room in every Reach mission.

Very well balanced response. If you had said that I would have agreed with you but your first list followed 'horrible reasons' in your first sentence so I mistook your intent.

Oh yeah the way I said horrible reasons seems like I'm listing em for my second statement haha. So glad to know that there are awesome people like you who can get passed mistakes regardless of agreeing/disagreeing with an argument. That's one thing, it doesn't matter what game you like the best for whatever reasons, the community still around in this forum is soooooo much better than reach's. I suppose stupidity/immaturity follows the newest things.

Yeah, I was a member here since 2005 but I didn't start posting until the screamers left for H3. It's pretty much mellow folks here now and we come here for the friendship and yak about days gone by. Oddly though, just like CE there's still new little stuff found now and again.

It did seem like even halo 3's forum was getting better. I might just have to stick around these places from now on. I mean even though I said I like halo 2 as much as reach, I really really do love these games!! And of course I'll still look forward to finding new little stuff in the future =)

It'seems like the H3 forum is better, that seems to be the general trend. Someday the screamers will leave Reach to the people who really love it.

We are all Halo fans so we should all be on the same side.

A huge chunk of me died inside when the world of halo 2 stopped. But, i will always have those memories until the day i die/stop gaming.

Yes, I agree. One for Halo and Halo for all! In response to the original question. I have to disagree. But, then again I was about 12 years old the last time i played the campaign...

halo 2 was the best halo game i ever played.

so i disagree

I agree, i sold it for two days lunch money, that was worth more to me
rather foolish choice, sell a ground breaking game for lunch money, H2 was a classic, but suit yourself

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

Kid is a troll, or Halo 3 fan. Same thing, though.

A lot of people seem to try to bully this game down my throat as the greatest game of all time.


This sounds more like Halo Combat Evolved actually...which I enjoy as well. But Halo 2 is defiantly my number 1 favorite Halo game...but it's not perfect either. And while were at it I have Reach as my third favorite Halo game.

Take a look at my channel to see all sorts of them.

Halo glitches were at their prime in H2 and were reduced considerably in H3 and there were a few in ODST and Reach.

Glitches, AI manipulation, interfering with scripting, etc. when you take those away, you take a huge chunk of map control from the player. Bungie's latest Halo games have one thing in common: more restrictions, less glitches, more scripting. And that just ruins the experience. Placing invisible barriers in places that seem to be accessible and killing off enemies when they're in front of you or taking their AI away while they're in front of you (i.e. on WC, but that's actually seems like a fun thing though) is not a good way for immersive experience.

You got stuck by FalconStickr

36% of this poll were only 5 when Halo 2 was in its prime so they dont know the beauty that was/is Halo 2.

RIP Halo 2

Easily the best multiplayer in the series. 2 and CE are probably tied as far as my favorites go.

Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.
