To All The Halo 2/HL2 Fanboys....

In TV Burp, Harry Hill would have a good way to resolve this...

FIGHT!
 
I'd say console game reviews seem to be more forgiving apparently, but maybe console a pc game scores should not mix, we've seen reviewers don't tend to think alike, maybe only on the basic review points but after that they don't
 
It doesn't matter, some people have different views on the games. Although my friend is a little retarded and doesn't believe me when I tell him Bungie did not create bump mapping... if any Halo 2 people do post on this site, they don't much idea of what they are talking about when comparing to a PC game.

But the campaign also winds up being the most disappointing part of the game--probably the only disappointing part. Fortunately, Halo 2 more than makes up for these shortfalls in other ways
This is a quote form game-spot which give the game a 9.4 , wtf!!! if campaing is half a game how could it score so high reviewers are full of sh*t.

No, the key word is dissapointing. That means it didn't live up to all the expectations, not that the campaign itself is bad.
 
I am buying an XBOX with H2 next week, and then I'll play Half-Life 2 the next week.

It should be the best gaming period in my life!
 
its pretty sad how halo got a 9.4 on gamespot, when san andreas got 9.6 ! PWNED!

Halo 2 fanboys... why are you even here? This is the Half-Life 2 General Discussion. Here is a pretty good example of the supreme H2 fanboy idiocy:

Who cares? Go flame at a Halo forum. I'm honestly surprised that these threads aren't thoughtlessly deleted. Goldenboi and other spammers, get this through your heads: Pipe down, or leave. You're incredibly annoying.

Now, for the Half-Life 2 fanboys. Guess what? Halo 2 is a good game. There's no need to create new threads spamming "HAFF-LIFE 2 IS OWNZ0R HALO 2 SUX N00BZ!!"
Here's a pretty good example:

Is there a need for a new thread like this? No. There's no need to create a new thread just so you can aid your insecurity about the fact that Half-Life 2 has a worthy rival. Deal with it.

Let's make these forums GOOD. I'm sure I'm not the only one who finds there's a majority of useless threads rather than practical ones.

You'r breaking you'r own "rules". This is the Half-Life 2 general discussion. Do NOT talk about Halo 2, nor compare. Again, This IS the Half-Life 2 general discussion, a place for HL2 fanboys from around the world to meet. I win.
 
i just want to play HL2...I'm friggin dreamin about it now and can barely concentrate at school or work! halo 2 will temporarily distract me, hopefully for a week and then...pure bliss... :)


but, there is one thing about H2 that bugs me. THE CONTROLLER! i cannot stand using any console controller for an FPS. no matter how hard they try to smooth out the controls, they will never be as fluid as a PC game. that is the one big thing that i can't stand about Halo 2.

are you kidding? Gamespot hates the xbox. The only cover story on Halo 2 was saying ilovebees was crap. If another of Gamespot's reviewers did the review it would've definently been higher.

GTA:SA= PWNED

I can't stand controllers for FPS games either. I have to have my keyboard and mouse, and I'll be pwning. But when it comes down to two thumbsticks, I have a hard time aiming...

Just takes a little practise :)

There's pros and cons for both joypad and mouse and keyboard control in a fps - neither being superior imo, just more suited to different occasions.
 
I can do things like GTA with controllers though...Third person games on consoles are the best IMO...
 
In what way is Halo 2 better? There isnt anything there which can even take Halo 2 beyond that of Unreal Tournament 2004...

Half-Life 2's Physics engine alone is ground breaking and the duration of the gameplay is also longer than that of Halo 2... Halo 2 is designed majorly for the X Box, totaly taking it out of competition for graphics and even with Xbox live theres not even a chance of matching its online capabilities, aswell as the size of the mod making cumminity.

So far from playing Halo 2 I havnt noticed one thing which impresses beyond Halo 1, or even UT2004.

Comparing Halo 2 to Half Life 2 just isnt worth it, it simply doesnt even come close to matching it. The reason for its high review scores is that Halo one was very popular, as it was one of the few decent games on the Xbox, and lots of fan dans started blowing it out of proportion, you know the type, they say thing such as .. Xbox is much more powerful than any PC and the graphics are better... etc etc lol Those are the people gamespy and the likes are aiming towards the younger kids. And i wouldnt be suprised if dare i say it, Halo 2 out sells Half Life 2, because alot more parents will rush to the shops and buy it for there 10 year old fan dan than those who will rush to the shop and buy Half Life 2...

Halo 2 hasnt got a done anything new is just a 13 year old and belows UT2004

Bottom line is, 1st persons simply do not work on consoles... (bar goldeneye on the 64 :))
 
I simply think HL2 will be alot better game than Halo 2. They will both be great games but HL2 will pull the win easily.
 
Halo 2 looks like it just has the same graphics to me...Its like Halo 1, but with a different storyline....

Stfu, Whiner
If you don't like it... kill yoursellf?
 
to the halo 2 fanboy posting that stupid gamerankings site

think of bands like led zepplin, aerosmith, u2, metallica, now i know that some people may not like some of these bands but im sure most would agree that they make better music than say, britney spears or some gayass rapper,
and yet look at the most popular music of today, i think youll see that crap pop and sh1te rap are up there.

My point is, most people are morons and dont know what the shit they're on about, so being more popular does not make something better (george w bush, anyone?)

Many console FPS games disagree with you.
 
the only stupid reason why halo is currently winning with a higher avarage is because of the mags that rate like 5/5..instead of giving it a mark one to ten , because a 4/5 will mean an 8.
and 5/5 means 10.

there are no values in between of that. they should make an international ranking system... this is misleading..
go half life 2:D
 
Anyone who reads GI for it's reviews should just end life.

and for the record, Gamerankings isn't exactly "fair"

Magazines like PCGamer will never, ever award 100%'s unlike most console magazines which don't have 1-10 scales scaling from crap to perfect, but crap to "best representation of the genre on the console."

Halo 2 is the "best representation of the genre on the console" so it's getting 10's, but it's far from perfect. Many reviewers have said this, there are many flaws in Halo 2.. but it's the best game on the XBox. Halo 2 has nothing to do with the PC, and neither do the scores.

Actually... I think that HL2 is a lot better I was simply amazed at the reviews.

List of Exelence:
1. Half Life 2
2. San Andreas
3. Doom 3
4. Pile of Dung
5. Killzone
6. Insect Shit
7. Halo

My friend sez killzone's better than Half Life 2, why is he speaking bullocks?

Ya see people, theres this little line between Fact and Opinion. Learn it plz.
 
All I'm saying is it's halflife2.net, not comparehalflife2andhalo2forsomeobscureuselessreason.net.

And people don't get the different.

Good point, I wanted to say that too but you were faster ;)
 
I really hate fanboys almost as much as terrorists, anyone who says Halo 2 or Halflife2 sucks is a moron, they are both great games that you shouldn't miss out on, im getting them both
