He owns an Xbox... well... he owns everything :lol

This is a decently unbiased source.. he likes the original halo ... and other Xbox games.

He said that Its not that great.... in fact, he said he is glad he played it before hand as he wouldn't buy it (basically he got the leak).
He also said that its a good game... but its a lot like the original with rehashed parts. "They didn't delivery the game like they promised they would with everything being new... better graphics..etc. The Graphics are pretty much the same, there are 2 levels/areas that are the same from Halo 1..... but the music is good... weapons are cool...etc.

This is just 1 persons opinion.... but coming from him.... that doesn't sound good.

I am sure Halo 2 will still sell very well..... but what do you all think about the above?

BV :hat
 
Well, the leak was not totally finished. Cutscenes were missing etc. And the graphics will look terrible on a NTSC TV, seeing as the leak is for the Halo 2 PAL edition.
 
"there are 2 levels/areas that are the same from Halo 1"

Hmmm, if memory serves me correctly {it's been a while}, the planet blows up when you beat the first Halo, so how could there be 2 same levels? And doesn't Halo 2 take place on a whole different Planet??? I'm all confused now.....

somehow he has the full version.

and I cannot explain it... but there are a few areas that are ripped from #1 supposively. Don't ask me how or why :lol

Maybe levels in a covenant ship would be similar.

I have also played the leak *innocent look* and definitely will be buying it (or at least my roomie will). Dual weilding the weapons is straight up fun.. it would be mayhem in multi-player and

If you get to the area where you're chasing a gigantic spider-robot thingy through a city with a scorpian tank, you'll get a grasp of how huge and impressive the game is...
 
"Maybe levels in a covenant ship would be similar."

Yup, thats the conclusion I came to. And actually that's ok I guess, just as long as there not EXACTLY the same as in Halo.....
 
I'll get the specifics... I'll call tonight... or better yet, I'll try to get him to post :)

Well, no, you'd expect different enemies, different plot. But, nothing is wrong with a game revisiting an old level.. ya know.. Zelda games all have Death Mountain, Super Metroid revisited the tunnel to the mother brain and familiar parts of Zebes.

Familiarity in a game is fun, it makes a series have consistency. Of course, that consistency has to be kept fresh with the plot.
