Summary: Decent, at best
Comment: This game is a matter of comparison. It's SP, compared with its predecessor, is complete garbage. You get about two levels in, and you start to wonder why you are still holding the controller. If you want to keep up with the story, then play the SP game, and pay close attention, as it is rather complex. If you don't plan to get H3 and finish out the story line, then you probably won't have the patience to finish the game.
As for the MP, it is better than the first one. Which is not to say it is good, as the balance factor is terrible (battle rifle, plasma pistol, rocket launcher, and sniper rifle - thats it, the only worthwhile guns in the game, roughly in order of importance). The only more unbalanced online shooter I have played in recent memory was . . . well . . . Halo 1.
Overall, it is only valuable as a segue between Halos 1&3. Otherwise, avoid it, its not worth the time.

I was extremely pleased with the graphics, I am saving up to buy a XBOX 360 and HALO 3 ($[...] refurbished by Gamestop ,) I am so ready to pass the insolent levels of covanent! I am playing non stop everyday =)!!!
GOOD GAME!!

Summary: Great Halo
Comment: This was purchased as a gift for my son and he loves it. He completed the first one and is on his way to completing this one. Halo 2 is a little shorter than the first one but is still worth it if you liked the first Halo. I have played it a few times with him and it's not bad. I think this one may be better than the first, but it's a hard choice because they are both good. This plays fine on the Xbox 360, by the way, just as the first one does.

Summary: The sequel to the game that sold Xbox systems.
Comment: This game is a worthy sequel to Halo: Combat Evolved, but there are some differences. The one thing you'll notice right away is one the most significant changes, the graphics. While the graphics in the original were good, these are just amazing. The music take the great soundtrack from the original and improves upon it even more. There are some new weapons this time around, including my favorite, the battle rifle. The sounds for guns and explosions have been greatly improved. The campaign is rather short, but still fun to play through, and leaves off with a cliff hanger, which some people hated but I liked. The action in general feels more fast paced which is a good or bad thing depending on your play style. The thing that really stands out here is the multi player. There is nothing more fun than gathering up your friends and playing system link with eight people all night with pizza, sushi, energy drinks, soda and more! Plus, its online! This is great for all those online fanatics, although online play isn't really for me, I don't like how competitive it gets or the swearing, racist nine year olds. This game is pure fun.

Summary: I absolutely loved it
Comment: I hadnt played a video game for over 5 years, since Playstation 1. I then buy an XBox 360 and this game came with the purchase as it was able to be played for the 360. So this was my first game I played in 5 years. I had surround speakers for the XBox and I just fell in love with this game. I havent played it in a year so theres only so much I can say. But you'll surely like it. I dont need to go in depth with the game and point out some minor flaw and compare it to other versions lol. But the music for this game, the scenery, the adventures, the story is just remarkable. When I eventually beat it (its a long game and I liked that), this cool music was playing, it felt like I was in a movie, I was so happy when I beat it. I felt as if I was the character I played and we did it lol. We saved the universe. It took so long to finish the game and it was an amazing experience. Especially with surround sound playing in the dark on your bed, you become apart of the game and it takes you on a wild ride. Buy it, you cant go wrong, nice addition to your collection at a cheap price.

Halo 2 continues the story of Master Chief, the heroic super-soldier who defied the invading alien Covenant and survived. The Covenant leaders within Halo are angry at this unheard of event. To save face, they launch an invasion of our planet. Earth's defenses are breached, and we're all in danger -- unless Master Chief can lead a small military squad to victory against Covenant forces, in all-out guerilla warfare!
