HALO 2

Posted By Blackfive

With the Frau und kinder out of town this week, I have had time to finish HALO 2.

GREAT GAME!!!

Without giving much away, it was fun and it seemed too short.  But after finishing it and looking back at the different chapters you can select, it is a reasonably long (enough) game.

The problem is the *ahem* ending.  I think I actually yelled, "No @#$%ing way!"  It's that abrupt and it's not really an ending.

However, the rest of the game is very, very cool.  The Marines are righteous and hilarious.  I fell off of the couch laughing when I was driving the Warthog and the Marine gunner in back yells out, "Where did you learn how to drive, Mexico City?"

The best part is Sergeant Major Johnson and his one liners:

"Now, don't make me take off my belt!" - gearing up for a fight.

When Cortana says "the mesage just keeps repeating.......'regret, regret, regret' any idea what it means?"  Sergeant Major Johnson replies, "Dear Humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret coming to earth, and we most certainly regret the Corps destroying our raggedy ass fleet!"

"Vindi, vindi, we kicked your ass!" - after wiping out a bunch of aliens.

"Hey! Bastards! Knock, knock!" - as he blasts open the door.

"Marines, did I give you permission to Bitch?!"

"You're uglier than my mother-in-law!" - shooting an alien.

"Your eyes say no, but my gun says yes, yes, yes!" - shooting an alien.


"Be happy, Marine! When I joined the Corps we didn't have any fancy tanks. We had two sticks, and a rock, and we had to share the rock with the entire platoon!"


"How ya feelin' there, Jackass?!" - after killing an alien.


"Ok, they're in standard formation - little bastards in front, big ones in back."

Now, I'll have to wait for the new Knights of the Old Republic (due out in a few days).  And then there'll be WWII Paratroopers and another Medal of Honor for XBox sometime next year.
