"BORING!"

Halo 2 single player is so insanely boring after a while.

It's a lot like the first game really. It starts out well but about half way through I loose the will to play and it just gets tedious.

I can't even bring myself to complete the game as it's just so sodding dull. The first bunch of levels were cool but it's all the freaking same after a while. I swear if I have to face another level of shooting crappy enemies in insanely dull enviroments then I'm gonna rip my eyes out and feed them to my goldfish.

It's just rubbish!

Online though it plays like a dream...an extremely nerdy dream, but a dream all the same.

As opposed to what? A thread dedicated to you titled "Shut-up you ignorant c*ck shank".

It should have been called "Boing!"

Isn't it funny that a topic called 'Boring' is found in the Xbox forum.

I thought the canals where excellent, though I loved seeing the decay of the city, and the variety in the locations you pass.

The Buggy section is similar, but better as it allows you to actually get out on foot. The vehicular sections are the weakest part of the game though, but that's because Vehicular section in general do tend to pale in comparison to what the rest of the game offers. That apply's to other games as well, not just HL2.

Both can be both really.

I just like H2 much better than CS. Offline, of course, HL2 is better, if a little too traditional in places. The gravity gun is a piece of wonder though, combined with the physics.

Haven't played it but they are completely different games. One is tactical and the other is mindless.

I know which I grow tired of quicker...

Cycloon is always right. The canals sucked. Bits before and everything after is pure brilliance, but I cannot help but feel HL2 has gone lightyears in some respects and absoloutely nowhere at all in others. It's not the game i was expecting it to be, but it's definitly superb.

Halo 2 on Live is far superior to CS, I have to say.

Yip, I've been saying this ever since I got the game. Completed it in a couple of days, played a bit of multiplayer, haven't been back since. I'll probably be playing on Live pretty soon, and with mates and stuff, but the single player was just so samey.

Im finding it boring now, Halo 2 really doesent have much replay value. Even when you do play through it again its still the same pants ending! But the worst thing is now bungie have decided that they want to do something else!! So they made us all wait years for this game, still left graphics bugs in it, left out half the things they were promising, and gave it the worst ending I think Ive ever seen, and then turn around and say thats it for now halo 3 has been put on hold because we want to do somthing else? So when will we get to see the next level? My love of halo and bungie is starting to fade away.

I thought the canals were excellent, a great show case for the new physics engine and the crazy lighting/water effects. 'Cycloon' is wroooooong.

As for Halo 2, haven't even played it on LIVE yet, I just can't bring myself to think that online will be better than the unbelievably dull single player mode, that and the fact that CS: Source takes up any spare time I have for online games.
