Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I'm off to go pick the game up tonight at the midnight release at my GameStop...

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Am I the only person who still doesn't care about Halo 2?

Maybe something is seriously wrong with me...

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

One of my friends has already got his special addition because he has "connections." I'm green with envy

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Tonight's the night I get excited about Halo 2. I've only watched the very first trailer, and even that didn't reveal much. I also saw it at PAX.

I'm going to pick it up at 8 am tomorrow morning. I would do the damn midnight madness deal, but I have a calculus test tomorrow. Screw it all.

But yeah.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I'd care for Halo 2 if I had money, time and an XBox.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

jeepnut has none of those and he's been going ape about the release... it's insane

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I got the game earlier today, only had time to play through the first level though. Luckily I didn't have class this afternoon. But it is awesome so far.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

man this game is super glitchy

it snows inside on some levels, but not if you look up... you fall through the floor when you use the plasma sword sometimes, and marines love to run in to walls

I got my limited edition from Future Shop. I had a bit of an adventure getting it.

Well, after going to the bank, I headed over to the EB, where I had $5 on the normal edition of Halo 2. I happened to walk through Future Shop, and lo and behold, they had hats and figures left! So I bought the limited edition, for $70, and got the hat and the figures. Then I walked over to EB, which had a line of 40 people, and started telling the people in the line about the Future Shop deal. Well, it's safe to say I shanked EB out of a lot of purchases today! Grahahaha!

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I walked into EB, they gave me my limited edition, and I walked out. Not a vert exciting adventure, but an adventure none the less.



I've played about an hour so far, stopped after getting to a very interesting part (you'll see...). Great game, kicking some alien ass and taking names. Can't wait to take it online and stick it to the man.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Halo green?


Yeah, I am pretty excited. Just need to find someone I can play the game with. Multiplayer should be sweet.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

So are we gonna set up a clan? Drop your Gamertag's so I can add you :D

Gamertag: Acebot

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I'm going to get a Gamertag soon.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I spent a good 5+ hours playing this game so far and I have to say I'm very happy. The game is pretty much everything I could have hoped for. They kept true to the roots of the gameplay, added some really cool tweaks and features (jacking is just friggin' awesome), improved an already superior AI (the first time an elite jacked me in my tank my jaw dropped) and its a truly beautiful game. I also like the added emphasis on melee combat and timing, which makes sense considering how close quarters a good portion of the combat is.

There are some problems with the marine AI, mainly pathfinding issues, but they are minor. Also, the game ain't easy, even on normal. I'm stuck at one point and I want to pull my har out, but that is an issue for a spoiler thread ;)

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

The only complaint I have about this game is the lack of a sprint button or function. Why did they take it out?

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I was wondering about that too, it would be nice to be able to burst into a sprint when you have the flag.

As of now, I've played about 7 hours of Multiplayer, and 2 and a half of single player. Multiplayer is so damn addicting it's keeping me away from the single player experience!

I was running my own party for about 4 hours today, and a good 20-some people played with me and my friend, so it was fun.

The multiplayer is crazy. Some of the default settings blow though, so I'm going to take a good hour tonight making some good customized versions of slayer and capture the flag.

Waterworks is friggin' huge though. I did a sword-only round in it with 16 people, using the Slayer game mode, and it took forever.

Halo 2 has to be the funnest multiplayer game I have touched since CS. It reminds me of Goldeneye, only with swords and low gravity. I plan to keep M-playing, so yeah.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

I've only played around 2 hours but I really like this game. I can't wait to play on multiplayer, I'll probably be getting Xbox Live this weekend.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Is david Cross

one of the soldiers voices in Halo 2... sure sounds like him

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Yes he is. Orlando Jones is in there too. I'm surprised Phil Lamar didnt get hired though.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Along with Keith David as the Arbiter and Michelle Rodrigues is a marine too. Keith David kicks ass.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Oh, I didn't know who david keith was by the name...



the guy from somethingaboutmary/armageddon

yeah, michelle rodriguez actually looks like herself too.. lol didn't know orlando jones was in there though.

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Halo 2 Movie in the works. I like Ed Harris as Keyes but Sammy as Johnson? Nah...

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Wow, Samuel L. Jackson is in everything

Re: The Halo 2 NO SPOILERS Thread
 

Screw captain keyes story... I'd give Hollywood my first born baby if they did a movie based on the I love Bees story...

That is the best story I've experienced in years.... those who haven't heard it, it's long, but oh so freaking good!

http://ilovebees.com/humptydumpty.html

i'd download em to your computer, burn em on a disk, and listen to them while you drive or something, it shouldn't be missed. BEST STORY EVER!!

it basically has to do with what happens on earth before the covenant attack, and the beginnings of the spartan program, even before masterchief shows up in it.
