Pushing the Xbox hardware to its very limits,
Halo 2 will expand on everything that made the original game great, plus add a wealth of technological and gameplay advances. Significantly improved graphics, enhanced artificial intelligence (A.I.), an advanced real-time lighting engine and destructible interactive environments are just a small part of
Halo 2?s evolution of design and technology. Every improvement in
Halo 2 is designed to take gameplay to a new level -- and in the end, to tell a more compelling story.
Utilizing Xbox Live to redefine online play, Halo 2 delivers superior online multiplayer capabilities. Whether playing with a clan on a new multiplayer map, boarding a friend's Warthog, dogfighting in Banshees or checking player stats, Halo 2 will bring the social experience to a higher level via Xbox Live.
