Halo 2's features are clearly advertised, duel wielding! X-box live!, destructable vehicles! But once you get the game you pretty much know what it has(not the storyline, the features).
What you first play Half Life 2 you are surprised at every turn. Its the enviroment, its the feeling that wow, this level looks like that place I drove past on our trip to LA. OMG i can use the gravity to pick up scanners and use em as buzzsaws, OMG the pulse rifle secondary fire vaporized that guy, OMG i just dropped that car on those zombies, killing them instantly, OMG i can roll nades into gun turret holes, OMG my crossbow bolt pinned the guy to the wall upside down by his leg, or OMG this blue gravity gun can pick up enemies and throw them at other enemies. I know I've played ravenholm about 3-4 times just cause its awesome killing zombies with the Gravity gun.
And look how far Half Life has come, people are still making mods for a 6 year old game. Imagine what they can do with the source engine!? Half Life 2 will last much longer than Halo2 and I bet Microsoft is trying to make Halo 3 as fast as possible so people don't lose intrest in the Halo series. Whereas Valve will take it's time because Half Life 2 isn't gonna lose intrest anytime soon.

Halo 2 is a repetitive game.
by Stevie Wonder January 19, 2005
Complete Metroid ripoff. I know how many downs this will get and I don't care. Almost every thing about this game is taken from the Metroid series, including the entire design of Master Cheif. They might as well have given him a fucking arm cannon. Hell the bad guys even look like space pirates.
The people who made Halo 2 really need to come up with their own fucking ideas. Master Cheif's suit has even got an Energy powered sheilding system.
PS. Metroid has been around since the 80's.

A game that dosn't deserve caps. Again, what's the point? You kill a guy, he dies, now what? You run, and kill another guy. Do you sence repetition here? I do.
Let's look at what makes it better than Halo: Better Graphics... uh... I guess that's it. The story sucks even more this time, but for Halo Nerds, it dosn't matter at all, which is different for people with brains, because in my case, I want a story that makes me look at the very nature of life, and question the very world it self (I.E. Metal Gear Solid) But then again, Bungie has never been very different. You take a gun, you shoot a guy, he is dead. Where's the depth? How is it unique? I have never played Half Life 2, but I'd think it would be the same, but I don't know.
You Halo Nerds have no idea of the world outside Halo and X-Box live, start living, you might like it. Now this dos not include everyone that plays Halo, just the one's who play it all day, which is probably a lot of you.
I'll say it again: Halo is a fun game, that dosn't mean it can be a religion

The last great Halo game.
Also known as the beginning of Bungie's spiraling decline into becoming a shit-tier game developer.

I really wish Bungie hadn't shut down the Xbox Live servers for Halo 2. I'd still be playing it over the steaming piles of shit they've put out over the last few years.
