My appologies, but what is halo and whats so great about it?
|
Halo is a video game for the Xbox. Imo one of the best games ever made.
|
ill enlighten you halo is the best game ever just as ferrill said however he left out something *(i start going on for hours about every detail of halo1 and 2).
|
Halo is not the best game ever made, I just think its one of them. Shhhhhhhhhh!
|
is too well in my opinion what do you thinks the best game ever ferrill then we can have a thread with a poll
|
I love the Halo series as much as the next guy, but after playing it constantly, I realised- Isn't this just like every other first person shooter?
P.S, Please don't insult me, I like Halo! Just placing an opinion :D |
You are exactly right Super Munch. It's nothing special, I don't see why everybody made such a big deal about it.

There are much better games out there though |
NEW BETA INFO AND SCREENIES!
at least I think.... none of them have been posted here as far as I can tell.... here's the site.... it's french, so I can't read.... but they have some very nice pics. http://www.halo.fr/index.php?p=dossiers&r=41 although what really struck me was this pic.... http://www.halo.fr/images/dossiers/2...134921reel.jpg now, besides the scenery from this new multiplayer map, -Lockdown, I believe it's called- it doesn't seem very interesting.... but look in the sky..... it's the Halo ring that you saw in the sky from Halo 1..... so there you go.... undeniable proof that there will more than likely be another ringworld in Halo 2. Lets just hope theres not another Guilty Spark.... EDIT: the site also shows some shots of the Magnums, Carbine, Brute Shot, and Beam Rifle |
Yeah, I don't find Halo as the best game ever. I like the multiplayer, but I didn't find much replay value in single player unless playing co-op.
|
That site wont load for me. Can you just post all the pics please?
|
They're nothing special. The Pistol looks lame and Cliched unlike the one in Halo 1. The Brute Shot is ugly too. New game modes look alright though.
|
I cant see the pics! I wish I listened in my French lessons now......
|
aw man.... looks like they've pulled all the beta info.... legal problems, most likely.... should've saved the pics...
Ferril- two of the pics included new game modes. One of the modes was Headhunter. You collect the heads of your fallen enemies and return them to your base to score points. The other was Terretories. In Territories, you must control all points on the map at once to score a point. Kinda like "Capture the Tower" in Conker: Live and Reloaded, or that one game mode in Unreal Championship 2. It showed a new map, too. Lockdown. It seemed like a large base stationed in the mountains, and like I said before, on another ringworld. It looked pretty nice. It showed pics of the Magnums, too. Looked pretty crappy if you ask me, but it might just be the beta model. The icon is very similar to the pistol. |

Very nice find AS. Very nice.....
|
no new pics =(
nice info, tho confirmation of drivable Wraith :) instead of jacking tank or wraith, you can jump on the side and shoot the driver, or even chuck a grenade in the cockpit if you wish. I like the new communication method for Live.... adds some realism nice map descriptions too.... nice find. EDIT: aha! I forgot IGN/1UP was releasing their beta test today, also! and theirs includes some new screenies. nothing too important, but new nontheless. 1UP beta preview new screens: Elite shooting Carbine and Spartan shooting Beam Rifle http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191031&type=lg Waterworks (I think) layout http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191034&type=lg Zanzibar layout http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191035&type=lg Concept of Ivory Tower http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191036&type=lg Ivory Tower layout (reminds me of Counter-Strike) http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191037&type=lg The Chief dual wielding Magnums http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191038&type=lg Elite holding Carbine http://www.1up.com/media?id=1191039&type=lg ^_^ |
Someone who works in my warhammer shop has Halo 2 Beta . Should I kill him and steal it? ;) I am looking forward to this . Badly . playing the covenant looks so fun . And I am rambo with the tanks . I kill them easily by jumping on em with a few plasma grenades . I hope you can use banshees in multiplayer or Live >.<

hey! yet another beta review! this one from one of the lucky few who were chosen for the beta test in Redmond. You may remember his name if you looked at that french site before the info got pulled. mnemisis. Bungie has givin him the ok to post his joyous experience. http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/...pl?read=478843 |
I beat Halo 2. Dear dude, what a cliffhanger at the end. I must say, it was much better than the first one, however...I think the game is being marketed wrong. The commercials were saying "we never thought they'd find us" refering to the covenant finding earth. It made it seem the game would take place on earth a lot more than it was. More emphasis on saving earth was placed in the marketing campaign, when in reality you are only there for about three levels. I mean, the awesome earth-battle demo shown at E3 was not in the game. We got a watered down version of it.
It seems the really huge earth battle is set for Halo 3. Grrrr. Well, I suppose Bungie did their job, because I was left wanting more. -oddguy |
t3h spoiler
Aweeeeeeeeeeeeeesome. Compelted it earlier. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Bit annoyed they werent really shocked that the covvies found earth in the first cinematic. I mean, this is earth. Reading the books would tell you how much of a big deal it is the covvies even knowing where earth is. Also, that big covenant city where MC latched onto the forerunner ship near the end... was that on the covvie homeworld? Love Arbiter, and the Brute,Jackal,Drone,(Prophet)/Elite,Grunt,Hunter civil war |
i beat halo 2 aswel (today) :p
it is an great game but on al the advertisments they say things like : earth wil never be the same.... there are only 3 levels on earth!!!!! come on he:) |
I can't wait to play halo 2. From what i've heard it's brilliant but only 3 earth levels? How many levels are there?
|
