Honestly, I completely don't see reason in how Halo 2 could be the worst Halo game. Overhyped? Maybe, but the times I have replayed Halo 2 compared to Reach is quite large. I only played Reach for about a month and I continue to play Halo 2 on a yearly basis. Bungie is entitled to their opinion, but I personally see Reach as the worst Halo game.

Thank you Pahat and Grumpy :) I'm glad you guys liked it. Pahat, I'm not sure if they failed to put their soul into Halo 3. Then again, I believe you are on to something. One thing that always bothered me about Halo 3's single player was how easy it was to find the skulls. Some of them were fairly difficult to find, but it was a far cry from Halo 2's skull hunting experience. As other members have already said, Halo 3 marked the beginning of the end for exploration. Grenade jumping took more effort, physics were toned down and so on. I don't want to get too far into it, as there are several immovable reasons why Halo 3, ODST, and Reach could never live up to Halo 2's experience. But I completely agree with you and other forum goers that something was missing from these games. Do I think it was soul? It's hard to say. Bungie's views will always differ from that of its fans to some degree (as Dr. Syx pointed out). Currently it appears Bungie's idea of a good game includes polishing and perfecting its experience until there are absolutely no bumps or rough edges. This is especially true after Halo 2. In turn, this meant killing every bug, glitch, and exploit found in addition to making its games look more "professional" (funny how this contrasts with their own well established, informal culture). Killing off bugs probably meant removing things like rocket jumping, Banshee jumping, making map BSP behave correctly. Another good example of this polishing is how Bungie encrypted game assets used in Reach's game engine. Did that stop the modding community? No, instead it nearly leveled the modding community. Is that something Bungie wanted to do? I doubt it, or at least I want to doubt it. As it was, the modding community was on its last legs for a variety of reasons, most unrelated to Bungie's actions. In continuance, do I think Bungie killed off tricking because they wanted to? Absolutely not. Tricking was just as much a part of Halo 2 as its sublimely designed multiplayer. I guess this effect can be likened to a child growing up or some BS. It's something I really don't want to over analyze because the only way to get a straight answer is to ask Bungie themselves. Unfortunately, I doubt Bungie would like to make known its reasons for such debated decisions. So where does that leave us? Well it certainly could be worse! Bungie's hosting of this particular forum despite Halo 2's age is evidence of their commitment to its core fans. Speaking of commitment, it was only last night that I realized they still host the records from Halo 2's multiplayer. While I realize this won't be permanent, it serves as a sign of their commitment to fans who have stuck around since that time. Perhaps I'm giving Bungie too much credit, but you can't deny they haven't forgotten about the enthusiasts from their older games (if you can call Halo 2 old). I guess we'll just have to wait for Bungie to release their next project. Especially now that they are out of Microsoft's hands. It should be very interesting to see how they handle the more minute features of their future games (such as easter eggs and tricking). Could their next project be as innovative as Halo 2? I certainly believe so. [Edited on 08.26.2012 8:45 PM PDT]

While there was a terrible cliffhanger, hundreds of (sometimes game breaking) glitches, and, at times, a group of players up to no good, causing trouble in the Halo 2 neighborhood - I could look past these deterrents because of the ridiculous amount of fun the game was. Sure the single player was shoved into a blender, grinded to a pulp and welded into a barely editable mass at times, but it was damned fun. In between getting to mess around with the physics-bending skulls and viewing the story from two different perspectives, I could easily over look the fact that it ended rather abruptly. Regardless of its contrivances, the single player was fun, clever, and plenty entertaining due to its story design, hidden secrets, incredible soundtrack, and lack of restriction. For example: no time limited death barriers, massive open levels, and pounds of hidden easter eggs. Oh, and the multiplayer! Who could forget that? In my opinion, we have Halo 2 to thank for things like party chat, voice messages, and detailed game invites. Dare I say Halo 2's multiplayer was revolutionary? Perhaps I am on a nostalgia high, but no other game available on the Xbox at that time and for years after had such a well designed and thought out multiplayer experience. Was the matchmaking perfect? Of course not. Most of the time the teams were stacked further than Mount Olympus. There were cheaters of many different types, etc, etc. But who gave a damn when you could team up with 8 of your friends and play big team battle!? A good game of BTB on Coagulation or Waterworks always overshadowed such complaints. Speaking of cheating, let's talk about Modding. I know Bungie absolutely despised cheaters, and that's putting it lightly. "Modders" especially. Oh how they ruined matchmaking at times. An interesting perspective to consider is the modding community. There is no doubt in my mind there were people who just wanted to cheat and cause hell for other players. This was a proven fact as well established as the presence of gravity. However, this was just one group which unfortunately soured the greater part. There were people who spent hours - days - months - who knows how long - reverse engineering this game as well as Halo CE. There were strong and thriving communities completely inspired by Halo 2 (let alone its predecesor) to push the games' engines to their surprisingly unfounded limits. I'm not entirely sure what Bungie thought (or thinks) of these communities. Unlike the general perception painted upon them by the Halo 2 player base, these were great people who were completely opposite in character to those who caused trouble in matchmaking. Maybe Bungie acknowledged this by only banning Modders from matchmaking, thus allowing access to custom games. Perhaps it was a technical limitation of the player control system? Who knows? One thing I do know, however, is that there were people from these communities who found their professions by dabbling around in Bungie's work, which was spawned by the "deal with the devil". It's quite odd to comprehend this angle, especially considering how a game viewed by its creators as a failure resulted in talented people finding a way to practice their growing skills. From what I have heard, a few of these people have even gone on to work at Bungie. Custom Games were another multiplayer feature Bungie nailed. Maybe they weren't the most customizable, but if you were imaginative it was an absolute blast to play with friends. Back then it wasn't hard to get 16 people together to play either. Usually everyone was looking to have fun, and that meant Tower of Power, Warthog Wars, Hide and Seek, Zombies, and whatever else you could whip up. It's a shame that this is not how things work these days. For whatever reason, Halo 3 and Reach never felt as easy to get people together in. Also modding in Custom Games was always fun... It was always great to hear other players laugh when they accidentally unveiled your latest creation in the form of a hundred wraith shots falling from the sky at the pull of a plasma pistol trigger. Then there were the multiplayer maps. I don't think there was a single one I didn't enjoy. You could tell the developers spent a lot of time making sure the maps were not only balanced, but also interesting and atmospheric. They had their quirks in other words. The downloadable content maps continued on this path. Backwash, for example, someone spent a ton of time getting the fog just right. I could go on forever about how fun this game was (if I haven't already, lol). Bungie, Halo 2 might represent to you the worst game development disaster in your company's history - but let it be known that the cramming, the stressing, the hair tearing, and the sleepless nights were not in vain. Halo 2 was and, in my opinion, still is Bungie's best work to date. It's obvious that you guys gave it your all, even with the odds stacked against you ten times over.

Halo 2 was, and is an incredible, albeit outdated game. Everything about it was great. I didn't miss the AR much, the music was amazing, and it was just epic WIN.

^Good post. When I play Halo 3 I see the game is half assed and no way in hell they put nearly their all work and soul on the game. No doubt about that they thought during the process ''well, we've proven ourselves, people will buy this s-hit anyway no matter what''.

If it's as good as it was/is today/back then, imagine how much better it would have been. Then again, look at Reach. They took sweet time, and did everything they wanted. Now look at it. Look at it. Just look at it... Look at it, Bungie.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] toystory2wasok Halo 3... the campaign felt like a Firefight map.[/quote]lolwut? Reach has the most Firefight encounters: -defense objectives -wave battles (LNoS hangar, The Package glacier, PoA Brutes) -infinitely spawning enemies (LNoS mission start) -Lone Wolf The Firefight emphasis is one of the main reasons why Reach's campaign is so tedious (not to mention that almost every single mission in Reach has a vehicle driving section part, which means extreme flipping hog time!).

CE: Weapons are fine and balanced. Banshee almost made me throw my copy of CE in a fire, though. Played the campaign on legendary and made me feel better, lol. H2: I dunno, I've played 7 games on it in matchmaking. Heard the sniper and BR were pretty much the key to winning and that the sandbox was OK. H3: BR was a little OP, and only a few other weapons were actually useful. OK power weapon sandbox. Reach:...I'm far to tired to even start this...

Definitely agree about in terms of glitches and polishing, it is the worst. But it had an infinitely good story, involvement, etc. Halo 3 had less glitches and better graphics, but the campaign felt like a Firefight map. Do think that Halo 3's multiplayer is better though, nostalgia be damned.

You guys forgot that Halo 3 has the most use of tactial jumps and shortcuts on maps.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrR46[/quote]Ok, you got me there. The only map I played in CE with other players was Blood Gulch. Easily bested with the pistol. With the sniper, I could take on up to 2 players at once. And the Scorpion felt like crap. I haven't played H2 mp. In H3 matchmaking, I only got to play Guardian. Got out sniped and lost my interest.

Halo 1's metagame, particularly on small maps, most definitely centers around the rockets, OS, and camo. The sniper, shotgun, and PR are nice, but they're more supplementary weapons than anything.

Halo 1 was the big console trial game, and it was a huge success. When Bungie made Halo 2, they still felt like they had something to prove, so they put all their effort into making it the greatest they possibly could, and it turned out great. By the time it was time to make Halo 3, Bungie already knew that they were a big name, and that people would buy it, so they half-assed the game. Same even more so with Reach.

They made two first Halo games that were great. After that they became just game developers among others.
