<a href='http://www.xbox.com/en-US/halo2/default.htm' target='_blank'>This looks freakin' awesome</a>

How many people have already registered their copy? I know everybody here is hyped up about it. Hasn't the french version been cracked already?

Anybody hear about the vehicles? I hear the rocket launcher warthog takes 3 fires, and then takes a while to reload.

    Halo 2 is quite deserving of mulitple threads I think... and yes< I have my copy preordered too.. Shame it's out 2 days later in the UK <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Sorry to be lazy and sceptical, but ... Halo 2... so what.

    They removed Dual Weapons. Possibly the only thing worth having. What's left...

    You can blow bits of vehicles
    You can get on the ghost in a fancy way
    You can use the energy blade

    Well worth umpteen $$. :\
    Some people actually think Halo2>Hl2. I mean... what?

    Edit: Flicking through the screenies it looks like Dual weapons are back. Is it multiplayer only? (Not a big Xbox fan. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> I may buy one when installing linux on the things is a bit easier.)

    some people like the scheme, the plot, the atmosphere.

    i personally think HL's atmosphere and plot and scheme were boring and uninteresting.

    Umm... they never removed dual weapons. I don't know where you heard that, but they were wrong.

    Also, you forgot to mention the new vehicles, changes to existing vehicles, new weapons , new multiplayer gametypes, the ability to play as the Covenant in multiplayer and the beautiful graphics.

    Heh.. I'm just sitting here laughing [or sneering, even!] at all the people who think Halo2 is going to be the greatest game ever. It's got nothing to do with Halflife 2.. by itself, Halo and Halo2 were, and will be, lame. The original Halo was mediocre enough, but Halo 2 should have been a patch for Halo 1. Not an entirely new game. [Plus, console only games suck. Not interested.]

    Guess what? We don't care. Get out of the Halo threads if you're just going to bust on the game that we enjoy.

    Hey, guess what? I'm here on behalf of Halflife 2, and every other game that gets "omg halo 2 will be much better". You do it to our threads, and that was my only comment in this one. Learn to live with it.
