Topic: Halo 2 Hype
Posted By: FreQ the Havoc
Subject: Halo 2 Hype
Date Posted: 26 August 2004 at 8:41pm

     Is it just me, or is everyone psyched about Halo 2's premier on Nov. 9th?  (I am of course talking about the X-Box game, not the 'halo' loader for your guns). 

     Just wondering, because I know I've been waiting for it for awhile.  I pre-ordered the friggin' thing the beginning of September LAST YEAR!    It's been an agonizing year so far...Only 75 more days until it hits the stores!

i am anxiously waiting its arrival as well. however, the only sad thing is that it will opver shadow the pball game that is supposed to come out at a similar time (really bad idea by whoever created the pball game)

Halo is an awesome game. Halo 2 will rock your socks off. Just watching the first level in play gives me a hard-on. I plan on getting a Xbox for that game.

What?  I don't see people going around praising homestar.  I don't even freaking like homestar!  I just found a name and used it!  Halo is just a First Person Shooter.  It's not all that great.  UT2K4 is a whole lot better.

Oh my god...  Don't you read?  I knew all about the site.  I never said that I didn't have knowledge of the site.  I liked the whole Trogdor thing.  I figured, since my name was Trogdor, that an avtar that has Trogdor on it would be approraite.  I don't see what the big deal is.  It's my personal opinion that Halo is extremely over rated.  I posted it, and you flamed me.  There is no real feature that makes the game much different from any other game.  You're a guy that shoots aleins.  I agree that the multi player is good, but it's not spectacular.

Halo is boring. It is lamely repetitive, there is no point in not killing your teammates, the lag is horrid, the graphics mediocre, and the players suck at life.

     The first Halo was (and still is) impressive to many because it was a release title for the X-BOX from a relitively new/small company.

     Besides that, it's just so stylistic and original compared to others in it's genre.  I don't mean to insult anyone, but if you don't see the spectacularness in the game, then I pitty you.  It introduced me to the X-BOX and gave it a good name in my book, anyways.

     (By the way, does anyone have a clue what my signature is?  If not, you need to play more Halo...)

How about you **edited** and leave the topic. We don't care if you don't like the game or not.

Thats all Halo 2 will be, hype.

First one was a very decent shooter, however due to the overwhelming amount of retarded fanboys regarding it as the greatest game ever made well that ruined it for me.

I hardly ever play it anymore because of such.

He's right though. Halo is full of annoying 12 year olds who get all annoyed everytime you shoot them.

And the learning curve on that game sucks. I was like, winning the first time I played. It takes no real skill.

     Come on!  Halo's a great game and it at least deserves the respect of not being ragged on.  If you don't like this game, it's probably because you don't much like video games in the first place, and don't know the difference between a great game and a bad one.  Halo being one of the best (in MY opinion).

Or maybe I don't really like it cause I have other games that are better.

A videogame is a freakin game...who cares which one is "the best"

all they're for is to entertain you when you have some free time...if it's fun to play and you have a good time playing it...then that's a great game to me

It's all based on opinion, and personal preference. I'm not one to argue with someone's opinion, but to come into this topic being very anti-halo is just plain stupid.

Im a video game guerru. Simply put.

First off let me say something. Halo is an FPS. Thats IT. Some people are FPS fans. Some people arent. Halo is really the only title XBOX owners have to play. So, of course they are going to love it. What else do they have to love? The game itself is boring. Single player is nothing new, spectacular, or intresting at all. In fact, single player is horrible.

The multiplayer feature is fun, at best. No skill is really required. After my third night of playing the game I beat someone who had it for two years, -1 to 18. Needless to say the game isnt very intricate. The graphics are OK as stated before. The game is entirely too hyped. Its not an opinion at all. Its a fact. Its by far not the greatest video game ever made, and its by far not the greatest FPS ever made. The game is fun, but thats about it.

If you think im just some random guy with out any video game knowledge, or im single minded, you're wrong. Im currently beta testing a game for PS2, KILLZONE. Im sure that game name will become quite common once its released to the public...
