Not sure if any of you are also into games but I figure I would let you know the biggest game of all time is coming out tomorrow. It is the sequel to the game of the year for 2001, Halo. It has created a huge fan base, made Xbox what it is, and could probably destroy previous sales records for games.

For those of you PS2 or Gamecube fanboys out there Im sorry but nothing comes close to what Xbox has to offer.

I will probably be taking off from school tomorrow and will be waiting on line tonight until midnight comes when I can purchase the game. Then comes playing the game all night and day long!

If any of you have Xbox Live let me know your gamertag. My tag is ITALTEEN3.

PS2 and GG eat your hart out!!!!

I am more of a comp game fan. Right now I am playing UT 2004 CS and BF 1942 but Yes halo is still a great game.

Wow I actually only expected one reply and for it to be that PS2 is better. Though Ive come to realise the people here are more knowledged and have also come to the conclusion that the Xbox is superior as well as I.

Some say that the Xbox Live part is horrible because in Optimatch you cannot choose game type, but personally after getting used to it and having some friends who will host it is amazing. Some also say the campaign is too short on default difficulty. Again if you are trying to beat it and not enjoy the surroundings it is ofcourse going to seem short. I still have yet to try it on Legendary and this will be a great challenge.

IF anyone else has Live or Jerronimo if you get XBL let me know!

Well HL2 is a fantastic game, but I finished it too quickly. It is too short in my opinion. BUT the graphics, weapons, game play etc are top notch. Did I say the graphics were good? Oh, I did.

Go and buy it...

I personally disslike HL (not hate it) i got the first 1 and Blue Shift.
But it's kinda boring to me. It's always the same story ......Aliens invade earth....kill them all....prevent the government cleanup crew from killing the black mesa personell.....bla bla bla and so on and so on :P

I like them "historical" games like Medal of Honour Allied assault, Sudden strike, Cossacks European wars basicly allmost any stategy with a few exceptions
UPS....Allmost forgot Delta force land warrior

Anyone play MOHAA online

HL2 is not set in Black Mesa. It is set in 'City 17' and the surrounding area about 5-10 years after the first game. No more 'warehouse after warehouse' level design. A lot if not most of the game is outside. And there are very few aliens. A lot more of a military shooter than HL1, and in some parts you have a squad to lead.

I sometimes play a bit of MOHAA breakthrough online.

Played halo2 yesterday. It's much better that the first one! (which was pretty good itself)

My favourite game is probably Age of Empires II - still havent gat bored of it!

Has anyone here played Rome total war yet?

No I haven't got xbox live yet, but as I hear from different sources it realy works rather well.
I've got some pals that have playstation2 online but it only works well with a few games.


As for MOHAA I play it all the time online, only teammatch.
Hey green flames maybe you can give me a serveradress, so we can team up or play against eachother some time.
