So i Picked one up last sat, along with Halo 2 and by monday I was out picking up a router to go on line. Now any chance I get I fire that dam thing up to play a few rounds on live. So much fun.
Also what a hell of a long controller cord, 9' how nice.
So I see the Street fighter matches going on, When is the Halo 2 battles going on?

Or if anyone wants to play let me know.

(side note) who came up with the idea of the player levels? Im at level 7 and I suck, the only reason I made it to level seven was the people I was playing against sucked even worse, or some people would quit during the game putting me in better placing.

Hey Dan

I am almost a level 9 and I think I am an average player at best. my gamer tag is vintagegamer13

I love playing online. I find the challenge of real opponents keeps the game fresh and I never get bored of playing. I have not played the mission game (single player) hardly because i always go online and play a few rounds against real people

People quit alot and I have run into my fair share of cheaters too.

Still I lovei t, well worth the cost of the XBOX Live Subscription

I've had mine for about a month now... hardly had time to play it since I bought it, unfortunately. But with Spring Break busting out, starting this weekend my 'Box should be seeing a lot more online Halo 2.

I'm also an average Halo player. It felt like I was always gettin' screwed in close-up combat, until somebody told me to bump up the look sensitivity. That makes it so much better now--so try that if you die in one-on-one combat a lot. Head shots are a lot easier too.

The Halo weapons seem really unbalanced. There's only a couple weapons worth beans--the rest are worthless. It seems like every game turns into a race for the sword/shotgun/rocket launcher. In bigger levels, the sniper can get included in that list too.

Edit:Oh yeah, my gamertag is SpuriousDuff

dsullo I will keep an eye out for you, If you see a request from Nin Tai you will know its me.

Im using the 2 month free trial that came with halo2, but I am more then willing to pay for the service, well worth ever cent if you ask me.

Congratulations on the Xbox. It is, IMHO, the best console ever. (thanks to all its emulators too)

:)
