Halo 2 feelings? = Queazy! Confused

Haha i've played it with some friends for our halo 4 player mayhem .. but unlike the first one, the second one makes me feel real motion sickness fast! (This happened with my friends too!) I dont really know why but i guess i just gotta get used to it. Funny thing is tho we played the first one for hours without sickness...

Generally dot points

The sicknesss ...

Player choosing when getting into multiplayer, instead of all choosing profile at once you have to choose individually.

The maaassterr controller. (the first player who enters halo2 chooses the options.) yes, that does suck...but can be gotten used to however, just not as user friendly as the original

The changing physics of the weapons .. like the shotgun is just crappy now. (We made a custom game called 'shotgun fun' where you have no shields and least amount of health with the first to 15 kills. Its short, sweet and deadly fun with 4 or 8 players! On the map wizard that is.) In the first halo you could play it and go crazy with one shot kills ... but with halo 2 the shotgun sucks. wierd ... I found it to be practically the same, except reload time is slower....but more realistic hehe

The changes to battle creek (Beaver creek .. what the?) and blood gultch. yay!! new maps, and from what I saw of them they are cool...new multiplayer maps were a must for me!!

Lack of description when you get to the end multiplayer menu with the medal tally ...There is a scrolling option either with the directional controller or the trigger buttons which brings up different stats, even new stuff like average life span, hit accuracy, its really much better than the original

Whopping people in the head with the rear end of any weapon is weak! I have found that it is just as power ful, however you have to be closer than you were in Halo... otherwise it misses, but one strike still kills outright. What i found that sucks is that when your dual wielding, if you try to pistol whip someone you simply drop the other weapon, and have to retrieve it later...why couldnt he holster it or something...(unlike the first one which was deadly!)

The multiplayer start up menu when you are ready to play. It's not as easy and friendly as the first one. This is true....the layout of the menu in Halo2 is more like each user 'logs in' and that could also explain why one control becomes 'master'

The awesome vehicles!

The fact that you can kick peoples ass's off the awesome vehicles hijacking it for your own pleasure!

Some of the new weapons are awesome..

Dual weapons! Go crazy ass John Woo dual pistol action!

The fact that you can be an alien or human.

The colorful options you can choose for you human .. and design for shoulder.

Single/Co-op player missions are pretty fun!

The vehicles can indeed be destroyed!

Uh i cant think of any more at the moment, but I guess in general it is good. It just feels different ... if it aint broke dont fix it .. y'know?
