So, in preparation for the imminent release of Halo 3, I dusted off my copy of Halo 2 and popped it in the 360 for some Covenant slaying action.
I realize, that after a year of no Halo, I rather suck at this game. I got pretty good at Bioshock, but that’s a game that has medkits and accessories that reduce the damage you take. Halo 2 has no such luxuries. Granted, I was playing on Legendary difficulty, where one wrong move and you’re dead, since you don’t do as much damage, you take more damage, and your shields recharge exceedingly slow.
I’m still debating how best to go about acquiring a copy of 3. I came late to the party with 2, since I didn’t get my Xbox until December 2004, almost a month after it came out. People were waiting in line for hours at retail locations like Best Buy and Gamestop to get the game the minute it came out. I could always preorder it at a Gamestop/EB, I suppose. Or I could preorder the limited edition at Amazon.com
All I know is that with the addition of online co-op mode supporting up to four players, my life as I know it is over on September 25. You guys might see me after about a week straight of it.
