    Post everything relating to Halo 2 here, to keep the forums from becoming saturated with Halo 2-related threads.

    i'll start off by saying its over-rated and doesn't deserve the hype it creates.

    I don't think GTA deserves half the hype it gets, but we'll save that for another thread.

    :lol: So that's four people. The other two would be the top two people over at Valve.

    Kudos to the person who knows why.

    Halo is not over-hyped. If you have had a LAN multi-player game with 7 friends and 2 xboxs in the same room, it's the best fun ever.

    Halo wasn't hyped, it was just overrated. It was nowhere near the public claimed it to be. Don't get me wrong, it's my 3rd favorite game of all time, but come on, it's not THAT great.

    What about me. And the people at valve hate it because it came out on it's release date. The first release date.

    Okay, i agree that it is overrated as a whole, but LAN multi-player with Halo was the reason i failed college, so i have to hold a soft spot for it somewhere. :wub:

    I like Halo but really, It's just another FPS game. Whereas GTA is a completely original idea.

    Exactly. Halo is very stereotypical. It's like a good mod for the FPS genre. Not much more though.

    LOL.

    Try telling that to the company who made Driver. Rockstar totally ripped them off, and just added guns, and changed the name to Grand Theft Auto.

    Almost all the story telling elements of GTA were taken from other things. So it's not completely original.

    The first two GTA games were different.

    Now it's just a third person shooter with a decent plot.

    Original concept. Game-plot wise.
