he directed Black Hawk Down tho (that was a kick ass movie)

it would be sweet if he made a halo movie with the same realism as Black Hawk Down

No, it was dismissed as being false somewhere else.

Until we hear otherwise from Bungie... well, yea.

But if its a non-animated movie...

I'll be watching for the Banshee on Ebay a week after the movies release.

halo is still the best kick ass game in my opinion

its reputation has only gotten better (except for the ending of halo 2)

Halo2 < Halo

It's too different. Bring back the old shields and make the guns just a little more unbalanced. Drop duel wielding or make it even less desirable and make SP more encompassing.

Then I'd say it's better than Halo 1.

i say halo2 > halo

1) duel wielding

2) homing rockets

3) graphics

4) new weapons

5) new vehicles

6) boarding vehicles

etc.

the pros outweigh the cons

1) duel wielding - weapons are weak and when duel wielded are over powered

2) homing rockets - Easily dodgable in banshee, vehicle exiting is much faster

3) graphics - I agree

4) new weapons - If they were to drop the old ones, I'd agree.

5) new vehicles - w00t, but the tank is unbearably slow.

6) boarding vehicles - w00t #2
the pros outweigh the cons

You forgot XBL!
Of course there's the whole money thing. But whatever.
Oh and the board the turret is nice for quick FFA temp teamwork

It has it's up points, but I think it's down points just make it worse than Halo. Don't get me wrong though, it's a great game, but if I was stuck on an island with either game, I'd choose Halo, it's just more enjoyable to me. I like the general ambience more too. It just looks cooler (not graphics wise, architecturally I guess).

Maybe I should play it through on Normal or Heroic, I beat it on easy and Legendary, and while playing Legendary I could only focus on the bad aspects, it was just too freakin' hard to like the game.

Nah, the story is far more mysterious and better in Halo 1 anyway, it'd always own Halo 2.

Which is why all game mags rated it 9.5-10.

When they played it for a few hours. They're unreliable. Remember Enter The Matrix? They're all horribly biased.

ur going off topic...

A halo film would be pretty cool (would be betta as an animated/pixar/dreamworks type, but not for kids obviously)

The books add so much depth to the halo story and u cant really appreciate the storyline (with exception to h2 ending) without reading the books.

If a film was based on those books (they were so kickass) it would be great!

Lets hope its an animated type film becoz lets look at who wud play MC:
Tom Cruise? Elyjah Wood? Schwartznegger? lol

uhh, i didnt go off topic

i just asked a question about something mentioned in a post; thats expanding a topic, not going off topic

firstly im not even talking to u

second going from halo becoming a movie to why halo 2 is crappy is going offtopic.

If they've only played it for a few hours, how could they have beaten the game? They all disliked the ending. They're also not fanboys who expected too much from the game.

amen to that, Halo had a totaly unique feel, how many First-Person, Shooters have you played that ook place in grassy fields dotted with ancient structures? It's awe-inspiring. Halo2, on the other hand, is similar to Counter-strike or whatever in archatectural feel.
