Everytime that I play Halo 2, I notice that my X-Box make a low growling
noise.  This stops when I change games.  Anyone else have that?
Also, does anyone notice their hard-drive constantly spinning down and the
backup to speed?  The X-Box is un-modded and has the Thompson DVD ...

The Halo 2 manual discusses the Banshee's "fuel rod cannon" as still
being present in Halo 2 although I find the left trigger "boosting"
the Banshee.  The "A" button does the new Banshee maneuvers, but how
does one fire the fuel rod cannon?  I have  tried everything I can

after reinstalling the game I had to restart and now I'm stuck. the
particular bit I'm stuck on has a checkpoint in mid air.  standing on the
rock I cannot get closer than 6.1 m and on the ground it's up to 16.7m.  a
mate told me that you can stack the trucks on top of each other ...

When I first played Halo, I have to admit I didn't like it. But it grew on
me and before long I was playing levels over and over cos they were so fun.
Well, I'm on "Sacred Icon" level 10 of Halo 2, and already I'm playing
different levels again just for the fun of it. I've got used ...

I miss the medallions you got in Halo 1 for finishing each level on
each difficulty (other than Easy). It was nice for low-key bragging
rights, but also was a handy way to see what I had and hadn't
completed. I have all 30 medallions (took me a while).

Spoilers are below do not read unless you don't mind and will help me.
Ok I have been trying for hours to get the Prophet Truth but I can't find
him, I go through the mosieulm (I think and out the other door (Hunters
follow me) I cross the bridge but the door is locked and won't ...

I'm having issues with Halo 2 displaying correctly on my Mitsu HDTV in 480p
mode. The left side of the screen cuts off part of the HUD. For example, I
can see almost all of my motion tracker, but the very left bit of it cuts
off. I can see how many frag grenades I have, but not how ...

Any one else find it takes nearly 5 minutes for Halo2 to find a game in LIVE
then you join, play a 2 minute game (I appreacite some games last as long as
6 or 8 mins but thats not the point)
and get returned to the lobby and have to search for another game

can this be done as i suck using a hand controllor and i would love to buy
it and a xbox as i do not have one yet.

There are no storyline ties between these games. But, does anyone else
think there are a lot of gameplay ties?
MINOR SPOILERS FOLLOW.
* The plasma grenades now seem to work like shock grenades from Brute

Does anyone in Halo mention the Covenant *by the races' name?*
Does anyone call an Elite "an Elite"? A grunt "a grunt"? A jackal "a
jackal"?
Only the Hunters are assigned a name (on SC).

The following applies to the multi-player XBox Live mode:
Halo 2 sucks
What a complete waste of time; stood line for 3 hours waiting for the
store to open up at midnight.

Is there any way to change the split screen  in the co-op mode.  The side by
side  SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Would like it the same as in the first game top
and bottom.  Thanks
