I never really got into halo, to be honest. It just never clicked for me. I never got into Xbox as a whole really. And that's what gets me. I tell people that I don't like xbox because all the games I like are already on nintendo or playstation. Any xbox exclusive games just don't appeal to me so I don't lean towards xbox. It also always gets me that I tell them that the only reputable game xbox has that comes close to getting my attention is halo, which I don't like and it never fails, the head-up-the-ass syndrome takes effect and they say **** like "xbox has good games, like halo". And I remind them of what I just said as well as pointing out that halo's also on computer and I'm not gonna buy a console that I don't even like for one game that I don't even like when I can save money and just get it for computer if anything. Just my thoughts. I went on a tangent I know... sorry. If you like the game, then knock yourself out dude, at least you're having fun right?

A lot of ps2 fans like ps2 a lot because of theirwide variety of games, but xbox tops ps2 for graphics. Look at gta double pack, when it came out the graphics were a lot better for the box than for the ps2. Anyway, halo and halo2 are still great games.I havent been able to play them online yet because im waiting till we build or new house for the cable in my room. Have you played doom3 or the new splinter cwll yet, sc has the best graphics of all time, the gameplay is alot better than pandora tomorrow,too.

I have to disagree on the graphics thing.PS2 had the 2 GTA games out for a awhile before Xbox. SO obviously the graphics would be better on X-box. Im not saying th ps2 graphics are better for sure, bnut they are as good as the xbox, IMO. But Halo2 is a sweet game even though i suck at it. Seriously, any gamer who saw me play Halo2 would just start laughing, its pathetic really.

I hear ya.

I have Halo and I play it, but I waited for it to come out for MacOS and I have no problem waiting for Halo 2 to do the same.

If I ever get a real itch to play it, a good friend of mine has it and I'll just camp out at his place for a while, but I'd honestly rather screw off with InDesign than Halo or Halo 2.

ehhh...halo 2 is over-rated..I remember the big hype about and then I played and wasn't to happy..the story was weak to me...graphics werent too impressive compared to games like Ninja Gaiden, Doom 3, Half Life 2...it just wasn't my thing..thats just me though.

Ninja Gaiden is the only reason I got an X-Box...and it does topple the ps2 in shear power and graphics.Its simply a more powerful system,but the third party games on ps2 are what makes the X-Box take a back seat(for me anyway).

I have halo one and have beat that a couple times,but I don't have any net connection for the X-Box,so I see no point in getting part 2.Fable was one of the best looking games ive ever seen,but was far too hyped.Short and not enough to do.
