Who spent his lunch break playing it (works in Game), Halo 2 is excellent.
It still doesn't do anything new or special, it's just a very well made FPS, and the level design is no longer sh|t.
The guns feel better and the sequence of knocking someone off a Ghost and stealing it is excellent, although I can't help but feel that when you're seeing the same animation for the 100th time you probably won't care anymore.
Most people know my main problems with the first were level design and the crappy enemies, apparently at least one of these has been sorted out so fingers crossed for the other one.

i think the his story is B S. Not even out in the states yet so why would it have been sent to shops over here???too much of a risk of them selling it early.

The HMV in Basildon had the Halo 2 tin on one of the shelves so I had a look at it. I then asked if I could take it into the toilet for a little while so I could use it for self abuse material. They said no ! Pfft, like, whatever !

I didn't think blowing the limbs off the zombies was that bad, but yeah I can see it getting easily tedious (if you want to play that level on co-op again).
All.
The only half decent ones are the zombie types that don't have guns, so they leap at you and use melee attacks.
But that's only because there are no other melee attackers in the game (excluding the Flood swarms).

Heh, the covenant are great, some of the things they say are brilliant.
I guess. Just some of the indide levels are tedious. And the aliens suck. Except the little dudes that run away, they are hilarious

If they took all the Flood out and replaced them with Convenant enemies I'd add 1 to the game's rating.

If they took all the Flood out and replaced them with Convenant enemies I'd add 1 to the game's rating.
