Wow, there has to be a different Halo 2 thread, doesn't there? Not even 50 posts prior to the bump? That's insane.

That is surprising.... that was one of the biggest games around these parts, I believe. But I think there was another thread or discussion in a more general thread... as we had discussions of the DVDTalk clan within the game, and coordinating gaming sessions. Oh.. the good old days of being the Halo 2 Overlord for the DVDTalk clan.

There was a clan thread, but this was the best "Halo 2" thread I could find without making a new one. There were a ton of random threads created, most had nothing to do with the actual game (good luck to the person that was trying to find the Master Chief plush!)

To be clear, it wasn't "Halo 5" but rather some sort of a Halo game for the One that wasn't Halo 5 as far as I understood it. Or did that change? I hadn't really heard anything since that "reveal" trailer at E3

Nah, they just had Master Chief wearing robes or something, and then a "HALO" title card. I think the teaser was in 1080p, though.

Re: Microsoft Confirms 'Halo 2' Release in Fall 2004

I loved Halo 2 multiplayer, due in large part to all of the guys on this forum that I played with (most of whom are in the 8BB now). How I miss the days of accidentally getting team killed by Go Lucky in a ghost.

I'm more of a COD guy now, but the lack of communication in objective games drives me nuts. Wish I could meet a group of guys that value communicating with one another on the 360/xbone, but I won't hold my breath.

We have a small, core group that play CoD and they picked up Ghosts. Feel free to poke around and find some players.

Well, either way, it has to be a sequel to Halo 4 because of what was teased in that trailer. I think it would be silly if it was called anything other than "Halo 5" for the first* Halo game launched on the console

*Not counting Spartan Assault since it's not like the rest of the games

It was the teaser [E3] for the Halo series their doing, that's why the chick came out talking about it after.

With this thread getting bumped, I was hoping it would've been news for a Halo 2: AE.

Hell, I don't need the campaign. Just give me the multiplayer. One of the best multiplayer experiences on a console. Ever.

I think I started that Halo 2 clan thread. Ah, memories.

I'd be totally down with an anniversary edition. I loved that game.

The campaign for Halo 2, in my opinion, was the worst out of the trilogy. It was too short and I really didn't enjoy playing as the Arbiter for half the game.

I'd argue Halo: Reach had the best campaign out of the Bungie titles. Halo 2 and Halo 3: ODST would be on the bottom of the ladder.

While not Bungie, Halo Wars is an underrated classic.

While I agree it's the worst campaign that doesn't mean it should be cut from a re-release.

Re: Microsoft Confirms 'Halo 2' Release in Fall 2004

This bump makes me want me to dig out my Halo games and play the campaigns in order. Is Halo Anniversary worth getting?
