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

I'm not gonna lie, Gemini is my favorite map of all time in the world of Halo. Sometimes I feel like I was the only one that really liked it. I call it underrated, but others just call it "bad."

It was a Covenant-based map that was set on High Charity. Not only did I like the way it played, but I also liked it due to the little things such as seeing the Forerunner Dreadnought in the background, the blue teleporters, the motion activated doors, starting off with plasmas, etc.

The design of the map is so unique and different...being described as "a closed-quarter outside area and an open inside area." Maybe it is the strangeness of the map that makes me like it.

What are your thoughts on Gemini and did you enjoy playing it in Matchmaking with other players?

Oh Yes!

I enjoyed it. I never played Halo 2 online that much since I was late with Live matchmaking. So I just stuck with the campaign.

I did enjoy it, but, in many ways, I liked playing Duality more. :P

THATS MY COOL MAN I CAN'T TAKE IT OFF!

I liked it. I doubt it would be included in CE:A, but think of visual potential this place could have.

I enjoyed playing on that map when some friends would come over. I loved the scenery of it, the statue of the Prophet in the center was awesome.

Halo 2 for Life!

I never could figure out how to get out of the map.

If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

I loved how it played but I also enjoyed just going on the outside and look out towards the forunner ship.

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

Multiteam on Gemini was hilarious. When everyone got Plasma Rifles, it was like something from Star Wars.

Gemini was amazing apart from ppl camping up top where the teleporters led to.

Outside the map was fun but very strange it was like walking forever and my friends and i got separated outside the map, still don't know how, and it took 30 mins to find each other even though there aren't structures or anything.

You have to get on top of the teleporter outside and sword cancel up to the top of the building then go to the edge have your friends sword cancel to you and then sword cancel over the wall that's higher up the building, it is merely a barrier thats a couple feet high.

This.

It was a unique for sure, I really liked the way the map played. It's a shame it's never been remade....which can be said for most of Halo 2's maps.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

i liked it along with the rest of the MP maps from H2. the only map i didnt enjoy as much was sanctuary

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

I like it, but it is not my favorite map in Halo history, that would be Beaver Creek. Gemini is a remake of the Marathon map Duality.
