Just so much easier to aim with a mouse. Maybe it is the games I like, War style, but to me the mouse owns all. Even me!

Not really, halo 2 is all about sp but theres a ton of emphasis on multiplayer, 8 hours but on what difficulty? Not saying much if you charge through it in 8 hours on normal difficulty.

Try the harder difficulties, normal in this is meant to be easier than the original game.

It is great, but I have noticed some graphics glicthes.

When You Look at something far away, it has a low-res texture on it. As you get closer, The textures become much higher-res and well detailed, the problem is that sometimes you can see the switch, making for a noticable flicker.

Also, I saw a tree that, when you stood right up to it, it dissapeared when you looked down.

A cool addition, that I think more fps should pick up, is that you can see your own feet and legs. So much more realistic. There was a problem with that, though. If you crouch and look up and down, your knee flashes in and out of view, quite abrobtly.

Overall, though, the graphics have a very nice look. The main thing that helps this is the lighting. It keeps things looking real. I love the pretty lights......... oOo:

I'm probably half way done the campaign on normal difficulty. I've probably played 6 hours or so, so far.

I dunno how anyone could beat the game in 5 hours, but I guess some people just run through the levels. I like to look around at everything.
