I haven't written in a while due to school and just plain laziness, but I'm back. My brothers and I recently bought the special edition Halo 2 and it is fucking awesome. I think it's much better than the original by, but the Halo still draws a smile.
The world designs are great as well as lighting but what really catches my interest is the story. The game's story is so much more in depth since it switches between master chief and the covenant arbiter whom the player plays in the game. So instead of one main character to play there are two. Multiplayer mode are great with two new games and better enivroments. Newer weapons and some fun old ones. I'm surprised by what they did with the health bar. No longer is it a long shield and several tiny health ovals but instead the health bar is the shield bar, which has been shortened. After it is depleted the red cross begins to glow red and then your dead, so it eliminates the need for health packs since the bar fills up automatically after a few minutes of "quiet time" behind a wall or something. I think it's better because it is more realistic and killing people in multiplayer won't take so fucking long.
Well I need to go, so I'll update later.
