True, the story to halo 2 was dissapointing. It's a great cliffhanger tho. I too wish it was complete, but this just makes me want the Xbox 2(althought i wont get one).
To revolutionize a perfect game is such a big and often stupid risk, you shouldnt have expect some holy game from God himself.
If something works, then don't break it! Just upgrade it! And thats what was just done.
Dual weilding is great, the new life system is better for a fast paced game, the addition of the sword, smg, brute shot, carbon rifle, battle rifle, and covenent sniper rifle, were all great new additions to the Halo universe of weapontry. The sword can be cheap, yet it's still fun to play with.
Character selection isnt really a big issue, considering the spartan/arbitor is completely customizable. And if you don't like the look of the chief, then switch to an elite. My only negative comment about this, is that it would be nice to download new logos and emblems, but maps are way more important.
Now for BOTS. Do you really need em? Yea theyre nice, but not really worth bungie's time and effort to insert. To add all these extras to Halo 2, Bungie would have needed even more time, and Bungie even mentions that they had to cut some projects they had for the game to get the release date. If you want to play a good game with BOTS, then buy Unreal.
About the "3 year olds" you play against. If they are indeed that young (or close to that), then with a 13 rank, you shouldnt be playin them. The system was built to restict that. Also, if you dont want to play little kids, then dont play mechassault or crimson skies. These games have just as many little kids, if not more, than any other game out there. No game will ever be able to keep all children off its servers.
And yea, u had a higher rank than i did. I believe this is partially to the fact that I never really get on Live. My family has one DSL jack in my house, and anyone who wants the computer usually gets first dibs. My parents arent that big on videogames, also.
I'll admit, I'm just average, but the game still captivates me. It's the best of its class (console, FPS). Others do a nice job, but none can create as good controls, nor hardcore fans. (I mean look at all the games that copy Halo basic control layout. Before Halo, games were controled like Unreal and Ghost Recon)
P.S. After I thought about Future Perfect, I really want to try it out. I liked the previous one, but just never felt compelled enough to buy FP. I'm really wantin to rent it this summer wit the Blockbuster Gamerpass. I'd also like to try Breakdown.
