"Will Halo 2 be the best game of 2004 ?"

Some of you have proplbally seen the screenshots for Halo 2 and you have to admit it look s bloody brilliant , but will it be the best game of 2004 ? Halo 2 is right at the top of the most wanted games list for X Box.

There will be many good games coming out which will compete with Halo 2
like Soul Calibur 2 , Splinter Cell 2 , Project Gotham Racing 2 plus there is lots of more games to come out.

At the E3 convention everybody got to see a video of Halo 2 plus they got too see extra screenshots and the extra screenshots are in this month's official x box magazine.


Do you think Halo 2 will be the best game of 2004 ?

Heh Perfect Dark turned out okay... sure

If you haven't done it yet I would suggest you reverse the Y-axis at the beginning. Then when you push up you look down (much like leaning forward)
I find reversing the Y-axis invaluable on most FPS games.

Although i cant get into the game of Halo i know tonns of people that love this game and think the next one will do brilliantly well. i have watched people play HALO, i can get in to it that way but as for playing it my self i could not get use the controls at all.

Im sure i will have to see people play halo 2, and i better start on giving halo a try too!

Microsoft have the financial muscle to bring in the best. If anyone left they can be replaced. The Stamper Bros are still there, and they are still the ones responsible for the magic.

Yeah, but more people left after the Microsoft buyout.

It wasn't nearly as much as most. It was about 5. Besides, Perfect Dark turned out OK without them didn't it?

Ditto

PC version is around Christmas/January I think.

But Thief III is out 2004 and I will prefer that far more than any of the others.

When is Doom 3 out?

Not really.


The chance of it being my favourite game of next year is less than the chance of me winning the lottery without entering.


And seeing as there is never a real best game of a year, this question is just asking opinons.
