    Default Was Halo 2 worth it?

    Did anyone ever get Halo 2 for Vista? Yeah the 3rd one is coming out for Xbox but I wondered if the 2nd was worth playing.

    I must have some memory loss from being sick. You're right Halo 3 has been out for awhile now...but did anyone think the 2nd one was worth it is what I am asking.

    Oh ya, I played Halo 2 day and night when it first came out for the Xbox. I had loads of fun. In fact, I just started playing again a 2nd time...

    Halo 3= incredible. The single player campaign is far superior to that in 1 and 2. Its really good.

    Shshhhhhhhh!

    I'm trying to -not- buy it for 360 and just hang out for RE5 (available in Aus March 13...not that I'm counting the days or anything)

    I was really enjoying single player in Gears 2 also....until one night I came home drunk and me and a mate (via xboxlive) co-oped the remaining like 75% of the game in one hit. The next day I was like "Awww, y did I do that..."

    I´ve played all three Halos on the xbox a lot, I really like Halo 2 its got more of those hollywood moments where Master Chief does amazing stuff.

    Just wait until you snatch your first Scarab with the help of the airborne space marine division! Top notch game!

    I think that all the Halo games are awesome but I probably had the most fun with 2 & 3.

    Halo 2 is quite short but once you *spoiler* start unloading bullets into the flood and get your first "interview" with the gravemind ..hoho...
    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    Well I need to find the PC version for Vista. Sounds like it should be good.
