Title: TWO WORDS, ONE TITLE: HALO 2!!!
Post by: Entreri117 on May 11, 2004, 04:34:43 PM
O  M  G!!  I was BLOWN AWAY by the demonstration video and new screens.  This single game will ROCK the video game industry to it's very foundation.  After watching the new video, I'm nearly speechless (other than HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).

Here are some new screens:

Even the biggest Xbox-Hater has to admit this game looks gorgeous.

It never was delayed.  Bungie never gave an exact release date until now, and before then it was "Fall 2004".  The release dates of "Holiday 2003", April 2004, Summer 2004, September 1, 2004...all those were made by gaming websites and game stores.  Only Bungie knows when the game will be completed, and they said it will be done and released on November 9th, 2004.

um....it looks like halo 1 with just updated graphics? am i missing something.

BTW, Halo sucked. the half-ass single player game was so boring i stopped playing it after the 3rd level. it was just so boring. the multiplayer was pretty fun though, but got old REALLY quickly.

i never got what everyone saw in this game. well i guess xbox people arent used to good games. yea thats right im bashing xbox.

its a dumbed down pc wannabe.

i gotta say i disagree - multiplayer on Halo was one of the most addictive gameplay's ive ever played

me and my mates still play it regularly

sorry - i thought it had been delayed but i was always told the release date by people that work for gaming stores. thanks for correcting me so i can correct them.

WORD.....i never really seen what was so great about it myself.....dont get me wrong its a cool game...but shit it aint all that... Golden Eye for the N64 was way better and way more addicting than halo.....now that was a revolutionary game....

yea the game was boring even though it had the best A.I ! Come on...everything was perfect about this game.  The graphics, story, gameplay, the smoothness of the controls, every lil thing about this game is perfect.

i thought it was a great game but some people make it out to be the best. the thing i liked the most was the vehicles and the co-op

the game was hyped to death before, that's what made some ppl hate it, just like LeBron  James.
even though, it's definitly great, just like LeBron James.
Im looking forward to the sequel. I'll play it.

no your fucking stupid. Halo wasnt that hyped. I didnt like halo because it actually was a really boring game. i never even heard about halo till it came out on pc and xbox guys said i should try out this game. i bought it 2 weeks later i sold it

The reason alot of people didn't like the single player was because of the difficulty of the game.  On Easy and Normal, the game is extremely easy (for me its like playing on god-mode).  On Heroic (2nd hardest difficulty) it got a lil tougher, and the AI got smarter.  On Legendary (hardest) the AI level was at max and the game got very difficult in certain parts.

The reason you thought it was boring was probably b/c you either had the difficulty too low and beat it too quickly, or had it too high and couldn't beat it period.  And don't even try to tell me you sat down...played legendary and beat it your first time playing.  I don't know a single person who's been able to do that, and I doubt you're any different.

Oh well, Halo is a game you either love or hate...I love it.

I think Halo 2 will be a game you either love or love it to death.

wow seriously you guys just dont get it.
Its not the fucking hype nor is it the fucking AI or Diffuculty for God sakes.
the game is just fucking boring, theres nothing else to it. The story sucks, and the things you have to do on the single player sucks. i found myself just shooting these little shitheads throught the game. and as i said before i didnt even bother to finish it because it was so fucking boring.

No, you PS2 dickheads just don't fucking get it.  You cling to your lil' grand theft auto and other pointless games, and when a superb game like Halo comes along you dismiss it as being inferior.  Go beat the dead horse and play your lil car jacking game (OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!!!  THE NEW GRAND THEFT AUTO!!!!!  HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!)

I laugh at you people... ;D

PS: Compare Halo 2's graphics with the new GTA...hmph.

being as i own all systems, own the games in question and have numerous titles of each game type FPS and 3rd person.... and while i even like FPS's more.... Grand Theft Auto's are better

of course halo bombs on GTA in the graphics department,but it's kind of boring killing the same 8 enemies over and over again. the creatures in the later levels shouldn't even count, you're fighting shapeless mutants and flying popcorn shrimp. only thing halo had going for it was the graphics, co- op and vehicles, everything else has been done in nearly all other first person shooters

Ive always found it weird Halo only had like a handful of weapons and only 2 different enemies (basically). Tha fuck is this? Besides, who the hell can take the Bad Guy serious? It's a giant cube!!!!

Covenant Weapons
Plasma Rifle
Plasma Pistol
Needler
Stationary Gun
Plasma Grenade (its different from the human one because it sticks to enemies)

Human Weapons
Grenade
m6d pistol
assualt rifle MA5b
m90 shotgun
S2 AM Sniper Rifle
M 19 SSM Rocket Launcher
M41 LAAG

the thing is that you can only carry two weapons which makes sense since how the hell can he be carrying all those weapons. LIke that u have to think more and see what weapons to get for what mission

Halo is an amazing game, and I'm certain Halo 2 will up the ante. It's an awesome game that made me wanna buy an Xbox, until I lost interest playing the game after only one day, lol. I'll definately try it out, rent the game.....but I don't think I'll be purchasing a Xbox. I'll stick w/ my PS2, w/ TIMESPLITTERS 2 in the slot.........it shits all over Halo in Multiplayer gaming.........besides the graphics, Halo can't see TS2.

Anyone played Syphon Filter Omega? I was really looking fwd to this game until I read reviews @ ign etc. :(.

you were right all the way up to the Timesplitters 2 graphics being better than Halo's. that comment is just crazy right there.

i did like how the different difficulty leves changes the lay out on the boards in that game...so far that's the best game to do it since Paperboy

luckily for you they have a timesplitters 3 coming out
