Halo 2 - Xbox

Loved playing Halo with my friends and college roommates. I have played all that have been released, and though many feel this is the best of them, I still feel it falls in second. It was so unique and so much better than anything in its time that it was the best, but Halo 3 improved on it slightly, giving it, in my opinion, top honors in the series, and likewise, top honors in all FPS videogames. Halo 2 is better than but very similar to the original Halo. New weapons and vehicles are introduced, as well as dual wielding. While dual wielding adds a lot of depth and variety to your fighting strategy, the controls for dual wielding were somewhat unintuitive. Halo 3 fixed this, and those who say Halo 2's controls were better only say so because they have played it for so long that switching, even to better controls, is hard. Story wise, Halo 2 was a massive improvement to the original, adding beautiful video cut scenes and a riveting plot, but it did repeat a little of the same story as the first, at one point even re-including the same tedious level (The Library) as you once again try (and fail) to save the world in exactly the same way you did before. Once again, Halo 3 improved on this. Some people didn't like playing as the Arbiter, as they wanted to hate the enemy, and playing as the Covenant rebels made it hard to hate them. I rather enjoyed the new weapon options, new enemies, and new storyline. The music is spectacular, with many new and gorgeous tracks and arrangements added to the good of the original, many of which are still considered the best of the series and best of all video games. Halo 3 redid most of them with a live orchestra, so if you are an audiophile, Halo 3 is the version you want to listen to, though there are a few good tracks not repeated, and only to be found in Halo 2. Graphically, Halo 2 still looks good, but you can tell it was made for the original xbox. Still good enough to play, the old graphics have their charms. If you are a sucker for graphics, and don't find any charm in antiquity, you would probably do better getting the remastered version, though it is full of glitches and does not feel the same as the original. Online, Halo 2 was one of the most popular games ever, and was played by loyalists until online support was cut by Microsoft, this despite three newer Halo's had been made. Some may say it is hard to change, but it really is that good of a game that who can fault them? System linking is still possible. If you like first person shooters, and liked the original, this is a must play. If you like first person shooters, and want something that feels different than Call of Duty or Battlefield, this will do it. If you like a good story, this will suit you, though you need to play Halo 3 to finish it. If you like dual wielding, Halo 2 and Halo 3 are the only ones in the series with it. In short, unless the first halo was too graphic for you, buy and play this game. Play through with a friend on your couch. you will not regret it.

Good game

Epic

Amazon se niega a darme mi dinero devuelta, me dieron algo malo (está rayado y no funciona) no lo recomiendo pésima atención al cliente.

Excellent storyline. I love the dialog in the game as you play though it. Fantastic graphics as well. The music is amazing. Definitely worth the purchase.

Item was listed as not coming with a case, but it came with one, and the disk was in near perfect condition. No complaints and look forward to playing this great game on my Xbox.

Game disk worked, case was ok. For the price great value and shipping was on time.

Chief is back baby! This game is one of the most amazing games in existence. I can hardly put forth the words to describe how much fun this thing is to play. The game has a great story and has several great new features: duel wielding certain guns, hijacking vehicles and letting you use the energy sword. As fun as the main story is, the real fun begins with your friends. If you have a buddy with an xbox and six other friends, both of you get this game. Set up in the same house, do a system link and do 4 vs 4 or free for all. The more the merrier. Seriously, thats a lot of fun. Also works on the 360. Only downside is the co-op campaign. Spit-screen is done vertically rather than horizontally. No way to change it, at least that I know of. Its annoying, but eventually you get used to it. That aside, this is an amazing game. I highly recommend this any true Halo fan.

Es un artículo que debería estar en una colección de cualquier fanático, la estructura de los niveles, la música que ambienta las batallas y su gran salto gráfico (de la época) hacen de Halo 2 algo que debería de ser jugado por todos, una joya. Sus misiones variadas, la historia fragmentada y a la vez que complementa con la trama, hacen un juego divertido y rejugable. Personalmente, no tuve ningún problema al momento de jugar, inserte el disco como cualquier otro lo ejecute e inició normalmente. En cuanto al producto físico, puedo decir que venía con algunos detalles de raspaduras muy pequeñas en la caja y los manuales, el producto es 100% nuevo, pero probablemente haya sido por el envío. Es una gran gran oportunidad de obtener este título nuevo, a un buen precio y con la gran atención de Amazon.
