I don't understand what all the hype is about.

maybe I'm just spoiled by BF1942, but I think Halo is a boring, repetitive game.

Doesn't look that interesting to me either...

"Despite a rather short campaign and a disappointing storyline"

Score: 9.4

I don't get it!! If it has a short, disappointing storyline, why does it get a 9.4 score? :freak: :confused:

I read on GameSpy that the storyline was just incredible and had you keep playing to advance to the next scene. Also, the graphics are supposed to be the best ever seen in a video game.
We will see. Halo 1 was a great game so this has to be a step up from that.

I've got it...it's a lot of fun so far. Halo is great not only because of storyline and gameplay, but the multiplayer aspect. From what I've seen, MP is even better in this one. I usually prefer online PC games, but sometimes its nice to be able to go to a friends house and just plug in the Xbox and play for a few hours. The graphics are good, but they are limited by the fact they have to be shown on a TV.

Halo 2 is good, but Half-Life 2 will be great... I hope :)

The xbox live mp is bad ace. There are lots of different game modes, so far the game has run with little to no lag, and if I am not mistaken, you can play the campaign with a friend across xbox live. And yes, the graphics are amazing.

There we about 150 people in line outside the GameStop I work at. We opened at 12:01 AM, and had the line cleared by about 1:30 AM.

I don't have an XBOX, but its getting some damn good reviews. Campaign is slacking a bit, but aparently, Live makes it incrediable.

Yeah I was one of those :tard:'s waiting in line at 1 in the morning. :D

It was awesome. Everybody was sharing their XBox Live screename and as soon as we got back home we were all playing each other over Live talking smack, playin til about 7 in the morning.

Went over my friends house, who has a 50-inch HDTV hooked up to a home theater sound system, it was amazing. :)
