One of the first FPS's (first person shooters) I have ever played and got addicted to was Halo 2 for the Xbox. This game made game of the year for me because it was very interactive, made beautifully, designed well, and introduced more new concepts than the first Halo game. All of the Halo games that were done were good, but I like this one the best because it had the best campaign, multi-player, and levels out of all the games. Halo 2 was the first time that players could either be an elite or a spartan in multiplayer. The campaign was great because the characters learned what happened to the covenant's best elite and it engages the player in a separate story with him, as well as master chief. The game comes with four different level modes: easy, normal, heroic, and legendary. I have played the game on the legendary difficulty and it is very difficult to beat. The player learns quickly how to fire the weapon, aim, and hold dual weapons of plasma rifle, pistol, needler, etc. because this allows the player to spray many enemies at once with double the ammo, or learn to cooperate with two separate weapons that becomes a deadly force. I enjoy the levels in Halo 2 more than the other games because they were unique and intricate. My favorite stages by far are foundation, zanzibar, and blood gulch because they are simple stages with many hiding spots, cover locations, and vehicles. These stages also have a set battleground because they force the players to fight with each other in the middle of the map because its where the best weapons are located. Halo 2 also introduced the design of characters and their armor. Players were able to design it based on what logo they like, put in different colors, and add different shades of that color. The other thing I like about this game is that they got rid of the health packs from the first game and the shield regeneration was quicker. Not having to worry about getting a health pack allowed the player to focus more on combat and surviving by dodging bullets and staying in cover. I would recommend everyone to play this game if they haven't yet and I hope that Microsoft will redo this amazing game like they did for the first anniversary edition of Halo.
