Halo 2 on 360

XBOX_36O · 17-01-2006, 07:30 AM

Is Halo 2 on the 360 worth the 30$, I hear that there are some problems with shadows and lag online?

i have found lag to be no ore persistant than with regular xboxes.
other than that, the only problem Ihave encounterd, and (MINOR!)
In a heated battle, lots of msg's and grenades, the sound will garble for a few seconds, but game will not slow down.

If you love Halo, and don't have an oroiginal xbox, then go ahead and get it.
I play more Halo on my xbox then the 360 games I have, ghost recon summit strike also.

I will say this, if you have played a lot of Halo, you may notice your skill decrease as you transition to the 360 play. I felt like a no0b the first few days, could not get a decent kill. Once you get past that, Halo becomes the old friend again.

I felt the same way, i thought i just lost it after playing COD2 online so much and then when 3 of my friends said the same thing i retired my halo 2 for good. I will wait until halo 3 comes out and is DEVELOPED for the 360.

i also think that halo 1 would be worth the $20 if you haven't already put some decent hours into it

During the game (on my 360, I don't know if this happens to everyone), on some levels a weird shadow-like print is stuck on the screen at certain parts. It started cropping up in Regret, and carried on until the end of the game. It's annoying, but doesn't get in the way too much. Other than that, it's still as fantastic as it was on the original Xbox, although the menus are more crisp than they once were.

You can get halo2 from www.newegg.com for $19.99 + a few for shipping. This is the best deal I've seen. I'm playing halo2 on my 360 and for the most part it runs as good as on xbox1.
