i don't know why i went but i like being the seventh person in sydey to have picked up a copy...

and they had XBOX cheerleaders.... YUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMM,,,,

well, i don't have an XBOX, the copies were for other people...
but i got a hat, a coke, and a KK donut...

so i'll probably play it in a few days... and if someone else plays it first i guess they'll review it before i do...
WHATEVER... i'm just board i guess...

Although I have very little experience of it, I don't see what was so good about the first Halo. I played Blood Gulch for an arvo at a friends place, but didn't think much of it. Seemed like a dead average FPS to me. Golden Eye 007 is still the greatest FPS in my opinion(though I haven't yet played Doom 3, so I can't comment there). The best part of Halo is Red Vs. Blue, of which the 41st episode has just come out.

dont get me wrong i loved the first halo but it boils down to this............it is just another average FPS anbd no doubt Halo 2 will be the same, yes i will still play it but it certainly isnt the be all end all of FPS.

When it comesdown to it, HALO was amazing because it was simply so well done. Hmm, sounds odd. Let me explain.

I can't really think of too many problems with halo. It is a very ballanced multiplayer game, and the single player game managed a pretty good plot. It did a good job dealing with vehicles, and the level design was amazing, at least in the single-player game. I'll admit that some of the multiplayer arenas were prety damn uninspired. The graphics were nice, and the voice acting was also pretty damn amazing.

I'm looking forward to HALO II, but I don't have an X-box or know anyone who does, much less have thecash to buy a new game, so I'll have to wait.

A local radio station here is offering 1,000 dollars to the first person to beat Halo 2.

I played it 3 weeks ago in french on a pirated version in a modded X-Box. It's a large improvement from the original, which was a solid "Meh plus 1" for me. They've thankfully added more weapons, better AI, and it's just cool being able to steal vehicles from the Covenant, graphics are much improved, giving Halo 2 a "Apretty pretty goood!" rating.

I like your rating system. How does it break down?
