In high definition baby!

Most of you guys probably notice that in Halo: Combat Evolved, the Elites are harder than the Elites in Halo 2. I have tested in the original Halo on Easy that a pack of Marines can not kill a single Elites by themselves. Its not the Marines, its the Elites. In Halo 2 on the same difficulty, they are so damn easy. Sometimes my Marines get all the kills. I hope in Halo 3, the Elites are like a little bit harder.

Actually, it's both.

The AI was improved for Halo 2. So...uhm...I have no idea. I'm brain-dead, my mind has overloaded from proving so many idiots wrong today...someone else do it.

Besides extra features and things halo CE is a mile of a better game than halo2, its mainly because if you notice....the elites move more in CE than H2 they cover more too...they do what they need to do to survive, they can move and shoot at the same time...how many times in CE will an elite do a diving run between pillars shooting you.....that doesnt happen often..or at all in halo2...moving targets....i think the AI in halo2 was drastically different in both games...i prefered the original...and i thought the aliens where more 'alien' in halo CE, plus i liked the "WOOOGH WOGH WOGH!! Wogh wogh wogh!!" tht was class!! you all know im right... they made things too complex in halo2....ruined it almost i think....

another thing about haloCE was that things seemed more 'alien'...you know aliens minus grunts, didnt speak like you could understand them....the environment also inside halo...was futuristic, sometimes repetetive...but i didnt care i was too busy bashing elites on ledgendary than looking at level geometry!! KISS...Keep It Simple STupid!! every engineer's motto! simpler things work much easier, its harder to get complex things to work spot on every time...dont get me wrong....nice idea's for AI in halo2...but it just wasnt fine tuned enough to be effective to its desired and promised level...its better having something not as complex that works all the time....then having a complexed thing that works half the time...

Yea, in halo 1 the aliens didnt speak english! They spoke a kind of giberish that made them seem much more alien.

I used to think it was "What What What" until I actually stoped to listen but actually I think Legendary would be like real life because you actually have to fight in stead of just running through the level's with barely any damage.
