Halo was excellent, IMO. It combined the best bits from games like Deus Ex and Half-Life and was a real thrill to play. However, Halo 2 does not live up to the hype - at least not on the Xbox. I have played about halfway through, am stuck, and feel no real pressure to pick it up and move on.
Half-Life 2, on the other hand, is simply stunning. There is a lot of stuff going on there - sometimes the pace is so fast I don't have time for anything but running away from creatures and helicopters etc. Sometimes it can get *too* busy...

I agree. I'm a sucker for great graphics.
