The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
This thread has been linked to the game 'Halo 2'.
Sorry but i'm p***ed off at Halo 2 littering the Xbox forum. So i'm making yet another one (sorry) which will be used for everything Halo 2 related such as:
Halo 2 Questions
Any Halo 2 Links
General Halo 2 chat
Your Opinions on the game
You can even set up Xbox Live games with people when the game hits the shelves (whooppee)
And I will post any and all current info on Halo 2
P.S. Please use this as the main HALO 2 TOPIC forum so hundreds of 'halo' thread don't clog up the, erm 'wonderful' Xbox forum
Danke

That was to do with the new patch.
It seems to be a hell of a lot better today and once again I'm finding only the odd game with lag and that's usually because some fat American guy's downloading George Bush porn while he's playing.

Bah, you can download it. Me and a mate went through the rigors of completing the last level with a new character and doing the stunts in the Banshee etc... It worked though. Got to try it on heroic to see if we get another level. On Delta Halo so quite far to go

Lag can be caused by:
You downloading things on the PC while on Xbox Live
Your general connection (occasionally you can hit low speeds - nothing you can do about it)
Other people's connections
Long-distance gamers in your session (If you have a load of Americans in yuor game for example, you should expect some Lag)
Amongst other factors.
It's not usually so bad though, last night was awful though.

Talking about LAG right. Does it depend on a few things like:
The day of the week?
The game's popularity?
Your ISP being busy?

Well I have to say, that was fun.
Done and dusted, albeit not yet on legendary. Bit short, not as good as Halo. But nicely set up for a tense third one. I liked being able to play as an Elite, with the whole Covenant breaking down thing going on. My apologies to anyone who hasn't yet reached that far. Since it is like the second level, I imagine that is rather few.
OK so single player is only a 7/10. But multiplayer is awesome. Possibly the greatest ever. So much fun.
I love Halo 2. The single player let me down a tad, but overall I'm very happy and it is one of the best games on the Xbox.

Just run backwards, once they go crazy, they drop their guns, and with the carbine you usually can get a full clip off. Alternatively, fuel rod gun is great too!
