This game had the most amazing Xbox Live experience ever. Nothing this gen even comes close to how fun Halo 2 online was. It was literally impossible to get bored. Everyone was always on Halo 2 at any time of day.
Whenever you wanted you could hop into a full lobby and play custom games on gametypes that the entire community knew like Tower of Power and classic Zombies. Or just go into a glitch match with overshields and rockets and superjump, etc.
And who could forget about the clans. The clan drama could make even being in the lobby fun. Some of my best memories from this game came from all the clan drama from KoG, KSI, etc.
It makes me sad to think that there won't ever be a multiplayer experience like this ever again.
Long live Halo 2!

I enjoyed the multiplayer in Halo 2 but the only flaw I found annoying in Halo 2 multi was the fact that you had infinite ammo for the energy sword while in campaign you had limited ammo. It was hard trying to "share" the weapon on multiplayer when people just take it and camp in the corner with it. Half the time you grabbed the sword, you had to watch your back because some teammates would try to kill you for it or vulture around you waiting for you to die in order to get it for themselves.
