Today's chiefiest sequel: Master Chief Sucks at Halo 2

by Kevin Kelly { Aug 20th 2007 at 2:00AM }

Warning, video language is not remotely safe for work, small children, or people operating heavy machinery.

Ladies and gentlemen, Master Chief is back. This time he's in for a double whammy, learning that The Arbiter taped over his movies with episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond, and finding out that the Halo 3 beta has expired. Poor Master Chief.

He tries to soothe the pain with some Halo 2 action, and also serves up today's video in the process. It's not quite as good as the original (not enough Master Chief laughing lolololololololololz), but it'll kill some time between now and the release of the retail version, which looms ever closer.

(Sigh)I think this game is turning into the new Madden. I may be the only one with the balls to say it, but here I go: Halo is a DECENT shooter series. NOT SPECTACULAR. It is the best thing on XBOX, so thats like saying a cheeseburger is rediculously delicious after eating a dog turd. The cheeseburger is ok, but next to dog turds it will blow your mind with tastiness. Ok, there. Have at thee.

Too late. I've said this numerous times. But I'm with you.

Zeus the God @ Aug 20th 2007 2:25AM

Wait, except for the "its the best thing on the XBOX" bit...

Snukadaman @ Aug 20th 2007 2:26AM

no argument from me man, sad thing is we will still buy the game.

Negativecool @ Aug 20th 2007 3:27AM

I play it I like it, and I agree with you (only I play it on PC). The funniest thing about it is, it seems that the 360's biggest exclusive isn't all that...exclusive. I can play Halo (and Bioshock) on my PC, so where's the insentive to get a 360 in the first place.

On topic though, I thought the first video was hilarious. I was surprised to see Master Chief get a few kills in Halo 2...he doesn't suck as bad as he did before.

DWells55 @ Aug 20th 2007 3:38AM

Please, find a console FPS with a better online multiplayer component. I dare you.

Miles Pulsford @ Aug 20th 2007 7:28AM

I disagree. Although Halo is certainly not the most amazing game ever, it is a well-made first person shooter with an extremely fun online multiplayer mode and a very engaging story. Also, the games will end with the trilogy, instead of releasing the same old same old each and every year for decades.

For me at least, if you approach Halo from the "OMG THIS GAME ARE TEH BEST GAME EVAR!" standpoint that you hear so much, then it is definitely a letdown. But if you approach it viewing it as just another first-person shooter, it is a pleasant surprise.

ExMcloud @ Aug 20th 2007 2:00PM

Dwells55 the funny thing is they can't find one because its not possible....I cant understand how you could even disrespect the series by saying something like that... The game is revolutionary it has influenced every FPS on the market, and single handedly shaped console online...If it wasnt for H2 XBL wouldn't be what it was today and neither would PSN who borrowed ideas from XBL... Halo is top 5 greatest FPS's ever made even if you don't think its the best its in the argument and thats all that matters

Grindstone @ Aug 20th 2007 2:53PM

Do you know what rediculous[sic] is, popozao? Rediculous[sic] is spelling ridiculous as "rediculous!"

P.S. Name one other FPS console shooter that is better.

Philip @ Aug 20th 2007 2:56AM

That video was lame except for when he played Halo 2. The first one was way better.

Splinter @ Aug 20th 2007 3:19AM

Real pros play with the sensitivity at 11

Grey Fox @ Aug 22nd 2007 4:09PM

Real men dont plant teh bombz.

Anticrawl @ Aug 20th 2007 3:19AM

So wait, in what way is it like madden? The games are sequals not carbon copies. Not the greatest leap from game to game but it is atleast noticeable.

In any case the first video was much better.

DWells55 @ Aug 20th 2007 3:39AM

I loved the suicide note, the "pros play at 10" (5 inverted FTW), and the "omg double kill with sword" thing. It's amazing how often you actually hear stuff like that online.

Flamehearted @ Aug 20th 2007 3:47AM

Great vid - I like the bit where he posted on teh Gamefaws.

Gambit @ Aug 20th 2007 4:35AM

Halo is okay. I do like these movies though. "For great justice" made my day. :D It amazes me how the Zerowing references never die.

ThornedVenom @ Aug 20th 2007 9:36AM

MOVE ZIG !

Wilco @ Aug 20th 2007 6:13AM

I don't play Halo, but I can identify with a lot of the shared traits with other online gaming communities. Notably, the lack of social skills....

HOVA uk @ Aug 20th 2007 6:37AM

wtf? so anytime Halo is mentioned people have to say it sucks? Read a book.. bitch

I want the new halo figurines... they look sick..

PSN: ummfada @ Aug 20th 2007 9:14AM

never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna turn around and DESERT YOU/never gonna make you cry never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and HURT YOU!

ThornedVenom @ Aug 20th 2007 9:37AM

LOL, you got Rick Roll'd!

PSN: ummfada @ Aug 20th 2007 7:56AM

What's the name of the LEGO game he plays? is that HALO 2???????????

WiNG @ Aug 20th 2007 8:08AM

The thing is, there is a large division in the gaming community, Halo fans vs non Halo fans.

Many people feel that Halo is the pinnacle of FPS, while others don't think it is a big deal in terms of FPS design.

I personally don't like Halo, but I give it props for being the first FPS since Goldeneye to actually be good on a console.

ExMcloud @ Aug 20th 2007 2:04PM

Oh my god is Wing the only one that realizes that Hw was on a console...Thank you Wing cuz the PC vs. Console thing is getting old.....LOL

Kryptinite @ Aug 20th 2007 8:26AM

Did anyone instantly go to GameFAQs like I did during that part of the video?

Neebs @ Aug 20th 2007 12:36PM

I was already on GameFAQs...I was linked from there...

colin @ Aug 20th 2007 8:35AM

oh my god, double kill with the sword, i bet no ones done this before, i have such an erection right now, oh my god.

sexcellent!

HineyWipe @ Aug 20th 2007 9:31AM

LOLOLOL, n00bz. It made me laugh. Funnier than some Red vs Blue episodes, and without much production value either.

Obie @ Aug 20th 2007 10:07AM

Very funny, but the original was slightly better.
Some how I am not surprised Mini Master Chief is a complete sword and rocket whore. LOLOLOLOLOL ;)

Abortimus Prime @ Aug 20th 2007 10:16AM

A more accurate depiction of Halo 2 online play has never been conceived.

Thomas Henwood @ Aug 20th 2007 10:34AM

It's people like this that make Halo great! Singleplayer just rulez even without "OMG doublekill with sword..."

Christian @ Aug 20th 2007 11:36AM

That was possibly the stupidiest video I have ever seen. The language reminds me of playing Halo 2, which I quit doing since no one playing that game can go two words without saying "faggot." Oh how I wish Bungie would come up with a server for Halo 3 that banned all idiots like the guy who made the film so regular joes like me can enjoy some casual multiplayer.

Abortimus Prime @ Aug 20th 2007 12:49PM

But...but he's making *fun* of those idiots in this video!

Word of the street. @ Aug 20th 2007 11:43AM

This was better than the first video,I didnt know some of the phrases like Rocket Lawn Chair or Eat Granade Bitch,For Great Justice.
Lmao.

TheOneMan @ Aug 20th 2007 11:58AM

I wish I was that cool... :(

Ants @ Aug 20th 2007 2:02PM

lmao "omg dbl kill with a sword! lolololol"

halo 2 is one of the best fps i have for xbox.
it used to be boring, but after i started playing it on the 360 i got hooked and now im excited for halo 3.

it's dissapointing to know that i cant play it online without a fee. :(
