Halo 2 for Xbox

Pros: Great follow-up to a great original

Cons: Bit stuttery at the start

Review: Not long after the X Box debuted on the UK market we bought my grandson one. After seeing Halo which came as part of a package, I bought one for myself(aged 58 and going on 13).
Since that day I've gone to lots of shops looking for the sequel...

Pros: New weapons, enemies, graphics, stats, maps, and options!

Cons: Short campaign, Halo 2 whimperers

The Bottom Line: If you're curious about the story, you're not gonna find it in my review. Play it and enjoy it =). It'll be a few years before Halo 3 comes out.

Review: Enter any person's home and if you find an X-box, you're likely to find a copy of Halo. If you don't, those people are really human imposters. Report them, please. So I just finished beating the game for a third time, and have played multiplayer for...

Pros: gameplay weapons, vehicles, storyline

Review: continues right were halo left off, brings better gameplay and a more exciting story.

Pros: None because I don't like war games. Well made compared to some other videogames.

Cons: Makes a game of violence which can desensitize people to the horrors of war.

Review: For this genre of video game, the story is engaging and well-paced and the graphics are good. If you are considering this entertainment for your kids, be aware that a seemingly infinite number of academic, scholarly studies have shown that exposure...

Pros: very good for it's time

Cons: it's a little out dated

Review: I think it's a really good game for xbox, of course it dosn't compare to the newer version of halo, but they are not of this system. I have played this game many times and once you beat its a very easy re-play thats its only downfall is that its...

Pros: Sound: 10 Graphics: 10 Game Play: 10 Multiplayer: 10 Overall: 10

Cons: You only have a shield for health, but it recharges faster. GOOD OR BAD?

The Bottom Line: THIS GAME IS A MUST HAVE. Personally, I would get the Xbox just for this game. This is the best game out there, don't miss out.

1. OPINION
Halo 2 is one of the greatest games that I have ever played. It's graphics are amazingly life like, and hitting a random object will make it...

Pros: cool new weapons, great multiplayer online modes, interesting campaign

Cons: campaign mode has a bad ending, no health bar, online play sometimes lags

Review: I got the game a few days after it came out. If you loved the original Halo, you will of course love Halo 2, but you may be disappointed by a few things. Shields are a lot stronger, and there is no health bar. The Campaign is pretty interesting, but...

Pros: Graphics, story, guns, maps, dual wield

Cons: Bad Ending, kinda short storyline

Review: This game definitely was better than Halo 1. The graphics and storyline are great. It really could've been a longer storyline because it only took me 12 hrs to beat it on the hardest level. Overall, great game!

Pros: engaging campaign mode, many online game modes, good AI

Cons: online setup, maps too symetrical, not PC FPS quality, introduces nothing new to the genre

The Bottom Line: This is the best console first person shooter I have played, but it still pales in comparision to PC FPSes like Halflife.

Review: Console first person shooters (or FPSes) have always paled in comparison to their PC counterparts. This is mostly because the PC was always on the cutting edge of graphical speed and beauty. In addition, the console never adopted the mouse as the...

Pros: Incremental improvements over the original game, "dual wield" of weapons, runs well on old xbox.

Cons: A lot of "cinema drama" intermixed with the gameplay might not be for everyone.

The Bottom Line: If you liked Halo or other FPS's, you'll probably like this. Imaginative gameplay allows you to play over and over and over.

Review: Up front, I'm a big fan of the original Halo. I probably played it through 15 times, using different approaches, weapons and whatnot. Clean, easy, imaginative, and being able to play it "differently" increased the value of the game to me. For...
