If you lunge with the sword it knocks your opponent about 30 feet. There is more gore.

i'd love to see some covenant turrets. i sure hope the shade turret has been beefed up, cos it sucked quite a lot in the first game..

Send me out with a bang...

Guys.... Half the fun is the wait... think about it, we have all gamed for years and heard hype for years. It's this waiting and this insane feeling inside about what could be one of the greatest games of all time coming november that rocks so hard. So I don't mind the wait. I say enjoy these moments because one day we will be waiting for Halo 3 on xbox next. :)

I am glad that I have something to look foward to in November besides food and my 1 year aniversary with my chica. I love looking at the Halo 2 Screenshots but every time I do I feel like passing out, it's just so cool and different from the original game. I think it will be interesting to see how your skills transfer from one game to the other. I also have a huge question on my mind, does anyone know if there will be an option to turn vehicle damage off? I would leave it in during death-matches and oddball, but the vehicles are assets on large scale stages, I don't want to literally flag RUN when all the vehicles are gone. But I will admit that damaging vehicles will add a great aspect, people could earn jobs destroying the enemy's vehicles, or even capturing and hiding them for further tactical strats. GOD, my mind is buzzing with possibilities, November never seemed so far away.............

I strongly agree. Why waste all the stuff on a demo?

You really say Halo 2 will be a November release? I was at an EB Games in Oakville, and it said Halo 2 would be available Summer 2004. I couldn't believe it because I had read it would come out in Fall, or around the same time Combat Evolved came out. This prevented me from paint the area around my eyes gold and the rest of my body green and black, then running around saying I'm Kelly.

Last I checked, turrets taste like cold crappy metal. Not like Juicy Fruits.

You can think whatever you want about it being playable but it was. It wasn't on the floor. I will give you some insight right now about the hrll that is going to be unleashed. Ghosts can zoom burst away. They can't fire when they zoom but it is epic if you want to run over people. You can duel wield. You can carry the plasma sword and it is indefensible. If you can destroy a ghost and you are anywhere in the general vicinity the plasma core will kill you so move. You can't dual wield the same of your own weapons. You must take the covenant on and take one of their weapons. The rocket launcher has lock on targeting now so if your reticule goes red it can and will chase. The map we got to play was Zanzibar outside of New Mumbasa. The environments to a certain extent are destructible. If you don't believe me I can't wait to see you online in November.

Love,

Smiling Assassin

I want there to be some simulants. With different levels of difficulty. That way if you need practice in multiplayer you can get it with out having to play against your little sister or something.

These shots are pretty freakin awsome. Just to support, there was a playable multiplayer level at E3 in the Bungie Fan Fest, but all the info that guy stated about the game was also showed during the E3 movie. Not saying he didn't play it, but he could have known that info without touching the game.
Anyway, we're just gonna have to keep ourselves occupied until Nov 9, i suggest getting a girl friend. They take time, yes and a lot of money, yes, but it may be the only way. ANd if you already have a girl friend, spend more time with her, get extra points so that by the time H2 comes out, you can lock yourself in your room for a few weeks (I know your all gonna do it too.) and she wont be able to complain.

Yeah that is a bummer, butI hope they don't release a demo. WHy bother? Anyone who knows the word 'Halo' will get thier hands on it as soon as possible, which reminds me, if you havent pre ordered it yet (very unlikly you havent yet) do it NOW. At my Gamestop theres already more reserves for Halo2 then all other games combined. If you dont pre order, it could be over 4 months before you get it off the shelf!!!!!

Well, for me it really depends on how much extra its gonna cost. If its gonan be somehtign insane like $80, no way, but for $60 or maybe $70, ill consider it, i still have to have enough for some Xbox LIVE.

Yep, look at this, we're excited about the pistol, this is what Halo is all about. I'd say, in 90% of all shooter games, a pistol is a last resort, but In Halo, there is a reason to use it. Balance. I think thats why HAlo is so good, the developers were so brilliant in creating balance the game. Theres a reason to use every weapon. Yes, even the Needler (lol, i like the Needler...)
