you do know if you pre-ordered it from sam goody you can pick it up today.

now i want to make a Xbox portable thing i figure 3 of the batteries that Ben uses for his VCSps could power for about 2 hours.

Ben uses InfoLithium, rated at 6-7.2. The Xbox needs as low a battery output of 12v.

WOOHOO!!!!!!! I got the limited editon!!!!!

And cyberblade, shut up. Unlike the gamecube controller, the xbox one doesn't make my hands cramp up after more than five seconds of use.

I just played it. I hate it with a passion. I loved Halo one (even though I hate Xbox) I think KillZone is a lot better than Halo 2

I respect your right to have an opinion, but let me just say this, a lot of people think you're very wrong.

I played a few slayer pros with my friend yesterday and it is quite different. Like he's taking me down with one shotgun blast to the face (wasnt that way in Halo), and the controlls are very touchy. If/When I get my Xbox together I'll see about working on my character.

P.S. by some strange coicidece I cant get my Xbox to turn on I will be offering the parts. I'll tell you if it doesnt, so dont jump the gun.

I got mine in the mail today (I confused the shipping date with the arrival date

)! Luckly, I also bought a LIVE! starters kit today, so as soon as I opened the metal case, I jumped on LIVE! and played.

Anyone else here have LIVE!?

I just got collectors deition. So much fun. Having a bunch of kids over this weekend to have a Halo party. How far is everyone right now. I'm at the part where you start playind a sthe elite. Anyone one beat it yet? One disappoint in this game though. The health. No more health just shields. So stupid. If you are reading this and don't own it then wat are you doing get out there and BUY HALO 2.

In the first Halo a single close range shotgun blast could most definitely kill you, not sure what you're talking about.

Yes, I have Live, you can find me on as Black 5ix.

And please, no spoilers! I haven't even started single player yet, I've been too busy with work and school and Xbox Live.

In Halo if you got a shotgun to the face it would take down your shield, and at least half your life. Its also driving me crazy not knowing where the health bar is, I know he shields are above the radar but I cant find the health.

You don't have health anymore.

That just sucks, I was expecting and improvment not a complete remake.

Wow this game is even better than I expected. I mean I was expecting a couple new levels and some minor tweaks, but they completely changed the feel of the game. Which at first seemed like a bad thing to me, but when you start to get to know the maps and get used to it its a blast. Online is so fun, that I can barely tare myself away to play the campaign. If anyone wants to play online my XBL tag is PaZer.
