The second highest rated game ever, and the fastes-selling. 2.4 million in a day doesn't lie, the game kicks ass. However, the ending is more of an anti-bonar than watching gay scat porn. Cliffhangars suck.
Let's hope Half-Life 2, the next great FPS to grace us, does just as well.

Get the Halo 2 mug.Halo 2 is a first person shooter video game, developed by Bungie Studios; it’s the sequel to the 2001 game of the year, Halo: Combat Evolved. It also has a new game engine and physics engine, which isn’t really that great. I mean, you can’t even upend a Warthog with grenades anymore, nor can you send them or other various objects soaring like you could in Halo: Combat Evolved.
Halo 2 has had over half a billion games played over the Xbox Live service. However, this does not make it a good game in fact, it’s probably the worst sequel and multiplayer game ever created, and it’s full of in-game flaws like inconsistent weapons, unbalanced maps, flawed weapons, and a melee system that doesn’t work and a terrible net code that can’t prevent cheating, even with the previous 2 auto-updates.
There is a big debate as to whether Halo 2 is a superior title to Halo: Combat Evolved. Majority of the Halo 2 fans prefer it over Halo 1, as most of the Halo 2 community have never even played Halo 1.
Halo 1 was a game based on skill and professionalism; however this is nonexistent in Halo 2. The new features like dual-wielding, energy swords, high auto-aim and the high magnetism eliminate the skill factor in Halo 2.
Many people think Halo 2 is a better game than Halo 1, these people are called ‘idiots’. Halo 2 is full of these 'idiots', 99% of whom create the Bungie.net community.
If you think you’re good at Halo 2, think again, it’s the game that plays for you. You go to melee someone and it does it for you, it aims for you, the bullets follow the target, the rockets follow the target (apart from hitting the ground half of the time), the grenades even lock on.
Halo 2 had the potential to be the greatest online console FPS gamer ever created, but it was ruined and noobified by dual-wielding, energy swords, high auto-aim, high magnetism, lunging melees and other in-game flaws that ruin the Halo experience.
Based off of the Bungie.net community, I have absolutely no hope for Halo 3.

Get the Halo 2 mug.The sequel to Halo, and very nearly as highly overrated as its predecessor. In both games, mediocre gameplay is complemented by equally mediocre graphics and an abysmal online community that consists mainly of eleven-year-old prepubescent fucktards, all of which have microphones that they employ frequently as a tactic to deter other players from the server, so they can feel like they're good at the game.
Around the release of Halo 2, many ignorant Halo fanboys had the gall to compare Halo 2 to Half-Life 2 in terms of quality, but they were soundly trumped after HL2 was released to massive critical acclaim.

Noobtard: Hey, I play Halo 2.
Real Gamer: Okay.
Noobtard: It's better than Half-Life 2.
Real Gamer: No, Halo is a shitty, generic shooter that never deserved the popularity it has recieved. Go stab yourself in the face and die.

Get the Halo 2 mug.I sure had a good time finding out what happens 200 years after Halo several years before halo released, by playing Marathon, which could spiritually be called Halo 4 and will probably be released with updated graphics within two years.

Get the halo mug.1. Second greatest game ever made. I say "second greatest" because everyone with half of a brain knows how good Halo 2 will be.
2. Story-driven and violent FPS for the Xbox (and most recently the PC, and pretty soon the Mac) in which you take on the role of Master Chief, a genetically enhanced super soldier fighting alongside the UNSC marines in an attempt to save humanity from the wrath of the Covenant, a strong religious alliance of at least six alien races hell bent on destroying the human race, most likely because they fear our moral corruption and lack of discipline, among other things.

Halo kicked ass, but Halo 2 will probably be even better.
Halo's story is complex and interesting, at least until its plotlines start showing up in other games.
