All PS2 users have much respect for Microsoft and Xbox, but all us, PS2 users feel left out that we can\'t play Halo or Halo 2. Most games that are released for PS2 are eventually later released for Xbox. There are millions of PS2 users worldwide, while there are only thousands of Xbox users.

All of us, PS2 users would deeply appreicate if you considered our thoughts and possibly release a PS2 version of Halo and Halo 2. Thank You for your time and w hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,


all ps2 users much respect for microsoft... :rolleyes:  ?
millions PS2 user, thousands of xbox user.. :rolleyes: ?

that\'s kind of a good "wake up" joke today..

Halo beater? (i dont own an X-box btw so im not a n XBOX fanboy) extremely doubtful seriously i really doubt any FPS could beat Halo, Halo is just plain better than the other FPS\'s - if u want a deathmatch rampage style u can have that , if you want a tactical sniping game you can have that 2, a tactical game is just not possible on games like Timesplitters

"Joke" is right.  It\'s been a long time since I\'ve seen such an ignorant petition.  And what\'s worse is how that idiot who created the petition states how "all" PS2 owners respect Microsoft and the Xbox, and how "all" PS2 owners want a port of Halo and Halo 2.  Hah!

Want Halo?  Buy an Xbox.  LIEK OMG WHAT AN IDEA!!11

I\'m sorry, I find nothing innovative about Halo. True it has outstanding graphics, but what else? The story was mediocre, and the 2 weapon thing was just gay.


IMHO

As the mass is most often correct about things, your statement is worth next to nothing.

General consensus regarding Halo: http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/472132.asp

Average of 103 reviews is pretty accurate, I\'d say. I\'m guessing you don\'t just like the game, but couldn\'t it just be that you can\'t see the great things about it?
Like I don\'t like football, can\'t see why it\'s so great, but since so many people love it I accept that it is great.

The vehicles were a poor addition to Halo?  If you people even played Halo co-op, you would not be saying that.  Warthog with a friend on the back is an absolute blast.  He\'ll be blasting at flying enemies while you\'re trying to run over as many as possible. :D

What\'s even better is when both of you are in separate Warthogs trying to take eachother out. :D  Good times..

1. Halo originaly was planned for PS2... then Bungie canceled it due to the "better hardware" of the X-Box (or was it just the "more money" from M$ ?!)
2. It´s not such a good Game. I played it a few hours and it isn´t better than any other FPS.
3. This Petition must be a joke ! M$ and Bungie can take Halo and stick it up their ..........

You try playing a tactical game in Timsplitters - its not possible the AI is crap on all the charcters and the sniping is a complete joke. If you wanty to play sniping game or Capture the flag u cant because the levels are so small and crappy, even with the level editor yo cant even stack blocks on top of each other to make a sniping position - crap.

I do agree with you also. what i dont agree is the "plain better" then other FPS (wich i quoted off someone else). Halo is a good FPS within many others from the same genre, it as is + and it\'s -

But its the mass of people that have hyped that "halo is the best" thingy. Just like Killazone. it\'s currently been hype by people, and when the game is out, it\'s gonna be a great FPS within many others, but you will have people on one side saying "it\'s plain better" then halo, and on the other side "halo is plain better then killazone"

imo, we will have "better" FPS when someone create a FPS to the next level. not just a game with better graphic.

saying that Halo is just another FPS is ignorant.  That\'s like saying GT3 is just another racing game.  Halo was the first game that convincingly puts you in the middle of a planetary war, where you are not alone in fighting hordes of  monsters but instead are an intricate piece of your military.  You fight beside your fellow soldiers, and they fight with you.  When you\'re in the middle of a fire fight with banshees, warthogs, tanks and what feels like 100\'s of infantry coming at you, you\'ll understand why this game stands above the rest.

well, i dont understand theomen. Halo is probably the 1st game to give you that feeling , with the x-box power, they had power to create something; a world that was more alive. but still, the 1st MoH on psx did put you in the middle of a warfare with tank and bomber and other artiellry. with all the ignorance you flagged me, i still belive Halo was "just another FPS"

i belive also GT3 was just another racer. in fact, wasnt it entitled GT2 for PS2 with new champship ? GT3 and no such big impact on racing game like GT1 and GT2 did.

So you haven\'t even played it? :rolleyes:

Halo may not have added many unique concepts to a game, but what it did do was combine many elements that had been done before and improved them to a new level.

Ithink i implied that already. Since the lunacy wont stop, I suppose i could add my 2 cents. I think halo is a decent game and i rarely ever bias myself just because its on another system. To be dreadfully honest, halo really didnt impress me all that much, besides certain aspects of the grafx, the AI and a few other things here and there. I admit that its a good game but I definately do not hold it in such high standards as most people.

The story doesnt do much to impress me and the action isnt the best. Those aspects really make some FPS\'s shine. Flame me if you will but i really liked red faction 2 because the wepons were fairly innovative, the story didnt suck and the vehicle combat was pretty decent. I dont know what it was that got me hooked but the action, even when you first start out is wild and very fast (not to mention smooth. 60FPS right?). The multiplayer is one of the best ive played in a while too. The geomod engine still remains fresh for me in this game as well.

Like i said before though, this debate is only good to describe the aspects of the game that you do or dont like. You may or may not like the game and im sure nobodys opinions will change because we have all made up our minds and are much to stubborn to change them.

I won\'t comment on the game coz I hate all FPS and Halo is no different, but I really don\'t see what so special about the graphics....30fps and sometimes less when the action gets heaty...looks like an underpowered PC trying to run something on "Minimum requirement" specs.

Anyway, the superior PC version will be out soon. Why even bother. Yawn.
