Rate top gamesHalo 2 isn't just a game; it's a monument to an era. Its multiplayer, for me, is the genesis of my most cherished gaming memories. The frantic shouts on Blood Gulch, the expertly thrown sticky grenades on Lockout—this was the pinnacle of social gaming. It was more than just a match; it was an event. Halo 2 didn't just refine the FPS genre; it revolutionized online console gaming. Its robust matchmaking, dedicated servers, and party systems set the standard for what we expect from online experiences today. From its innovative campaign to its groundbreaking multiplayer, Halo 2's legacy is etched into the DNA of modern gaming. Halo 2 nostalgic trip that reminds me why I fell in love with gaming in the first place. Made me who I am today.

Completed as of writing this review: Base Game (Heroic).
The story of Halo continues in this very ambitious sequel of Halo. Brutal crunch of developers, who just wanted to create something revolutional in first-person shooter genre along with Half-Life 2, created something as big as this. Story-wise it's the best no doubt. However the presentation leaves a lot to be desired. It's definitely a product of it's time with how cutscenes are animated and how bleak some places look.
Gameplay-wise it's also complicated. As a player, who have beaten the game on Heroic and tried a little of Legendary I would suggest getting ready for some bs that will get to you, like enemies with 99.5% chance of killing you. I have a love-hate relationship with this game, just because I see the passion of developers, but also see major setbacks because of their crunch. I'd definitely recommend this, but just beware of difficulty spikes.
