I picked Halo 2 up today, woot! I know Gator and I see Hammer has an Xbox. Are you guys planning on getting Halo 2? Maybe we can play online together if/when you do?

I found something that will really change the way I feel about FPSs on a console. A Keyboard and Mouse adapter for the Xbox. The gamepad is one of my biggest pet peeves with FPSconsole games and now there is a solution. Check it out here:

I have ordered this adapter and should have it for testing within a week.

It comes out here tomorrow, and I'm planning to pick it up the moment I get out of school!

I'll be getting it - but since I'm not the "maniac" that Softball is, I'm waiting a bit ;)

I thought the same thing about being able to play an FPS with a console controller, but after a couple levels of Halo, it became natural. The analog controller is very respnsive and I had no trouble using it to make my way through the game.

So, what do you think so far?

YAY!!!!!!! I'LL HAVE IT WITHIN 9 HOURS!!!!!!!!

Sorry, I'm a bit of a Halo maniac myself, been waiting for today since I first played Halo back in March.

Well, we will be picking up a special edition X-Box set for the kids for Xmas. And we get to choose some of the titles, so I'll encourage the wife to select Halo 2 if you think it's worth doing so. Not to mention one of them mouse emulator thingies, LOL!
WHO'S xmas pressie did you say that was , darling?!! :lol:

well, Halo is great one ... it set a standard in friendly and enemy (mainly) AI. Plus, it's marginally realistic in a futuristic sort of way - (in the original at least) you can only carry 2 weapons -- if you wanted a new/different one, you had to drop one.

I would definitely advocate Halo to any action fan who has an xbox.

Halo, without a doubt, is worth getting, and it will easily pay for itself in my opinion. The storyline alone is an absolute classic, and the music, well... Within 2 weeks of first playing Halo, I had ordered the soundtrack. :lol:

All I can say about this game is 'Wow!'

Just as soon as broadband is up and running again, I'll sort myself with Xbox Live, and all the necessary bells and whistles.

Out of interest, where is everyone-who-has-this in the campaign?
