The sequel to Halo: Combat Evolved continues the epic story of humanity's last and best hope: the super-soldier Master Chief, as he defends Earth from a Covenant invasion and fights to prevent the activation of another Halo ring.
While it's not the best sequel we've ever seen, it works for me. This fabulous shooter has great graphics, fantastic gameplay, and entertaining character customization. The Campaign's difficulty is fairly challenging, but the ability to play Campaign with a buddy lowers the difficulty level a lot. While the darkness of levels can get in the way, the flashlight has a fairly strong effect to fix the problem of dark levels. Overall, the game has occasional lighting problems, but the superb gameplay makes up for it.
