i saw some footage online of Halo2 and i was majorly impressed. they showed Master Cheif jumping out of a spaceship and re-enterting earths atmosphere, sky dive style, no ship! and they also showed some cool game play footage. it had GTA style vehicle jackings, it had double weapons [one in each hand], M.C. started with a cool scoped assualt rifle, it all just looked really great. i hope they don't make the mistake RARE did with the transition from Goldeneye to Perfect Dark. with their oversoftening and lighting of characters, objects and environments. this is gonna sound crazy, but TOO MANY POLYGONS SUCK! i know it'll own though.
