Im sure I heard something about Sony secretly working to make a 'halo killa' or something along them lines quite a while ago, what came of it? ive not heard anything on this for a long long time, I guess this was just a rumour then that wasn't true or is something still yet to amaze us?

It turned into Jak and Dakter, but that wouldn't be a Halo killer,
Oh! If only Metroid Prime was on PS2

Well I've only played the demo of TS2 and part of Halo at Silent's house, and to me TS2 is a lot more appealing. Halo just didn't feel much different to a lot of other FPS's (I'm not what you'd call a fan of the genre), and TS2 is the only FPS that I've actually found enjoyable.

Well, the multi-player games are just as much fun on either version - but the single player has been improved a lot.

On the first game, there was no real story, and missions consisted mainly of getting in, collecting an object and getting out.

This time there's a proper story, and the levels are much bigger and 100% more interactive. You actually have items to look for, and sub-missions which are added when you perform certain actions in the game.

It's not exactly a taxing FPS game, but it is a whole lot of fun.

True, until I bought TS2 - which has already been more fun than Halo!

It seems to me like they ran out of ideas. It all starts off very good, but the later levels are bland and repetitive. Once you've got in and done what you need to do, you just do the same levels backwards to get out again.

I suppose that is fairly realistic, but it doesn't make for great gameplay.
