Personally, I like Halo 1 much better. The campaign was more entertaining, with a better storyline. The physics are much more fun. And the weapon selection made for a better multiplayer experiance. Of course Halo 2 on Xbox Live is awesome, and dual-wielding is a pretty cool option, but I don't think that Halo 2 has the same flare as the origional.

Nuh Uh.
Halo 1 was a very great release, and Halo 2 was an overated one, yet overated doesn't mean not fun.
Halo 2 was far better than Halo 1 because it had more features... I like the 1st one because it's for PC, and on PC it ownz, on xbox halo 1 is the lamest s**t known to humanity. I got tired of the Halo series like 5 months ago and realized both games show great potential but people who hail it and say \"Halo is teh best evar\" clearly never played any REAL FPS.
Let's face it, H2 had better graphics, weapons, models, vehicles, engine, funner glitches and online gaming w/ voice communication with up to 16 players, better gameplay and better campaign.
Halo generally never had a great story, so I don't care if \"zomg but h1 had a better storee1!1one!1\" The books were good though, but I'm talking about the game, not the books.
Now, Halo: Combat Evolved has the PC alternative/expansion. The PC expansion is definetely the best even better than H2. I like it more because it's PC, better graphics on my computers, better and more comfortable controls for me, expanded weapons and vehicles on MP, MP with up to 16 people, anti-cheat, great Lan Game, good campaign and more maps and the ability to download maps if you get the expansion OF Halo PC.
Now, what makes Halo series fun is that it's a very unrealistic game. Better for the peps who are sick of CoD, CS, BF2 (BattleField 2, not BattleFront), Rainbow Six, etc. Basicly, leave halo for the noob society. I am quite the noob, seeing how I don't do so well on CZ. Well, my skill progressed a bit :)

I like Halo 1 better. It was a much better storyline, and the campaign is longer. Plus on the PC, you can also have great online play. Halo 2- Ok storyline, and it's really short. The online play is awesome though. But I'm not spending $50 or w/e a year for that.
Weapons- I'm not sure which I like better. On Halo they're a lot skinnier so that took some getting used to. I liked the new pistol and the SMG over the asault rifle.
Other stuff- Even Master Cheif is skinnier on Halo 2, wtf?! That was gay lol. And when he jumps you can see his feet. >_>. Graphics wise, yeah Halo 2's is better duh.

Halo: CE was much better. Yes, Halo 2 has Xbox Live, but Halo's multiplayer was much better. I play MLG because I want a fair, balanced and competitive game. With Halo 2 it's all about weapon control, luck of spawn, etc.
Halo 2 is a fantastic game, but to any TRUE Halo fan it is obvious that the sequal not only falls short of what it should have been, but it also falls short of the original.
Halo 1 on PC is the best. I also downloaded Halo Custom Edition, and it is much better than Halo 1 as well. I don't like the XBOX controls; on the contrary, PC ones are really nice and easy for me to use.

I've never downloaded Custom Edition, but I might do that soon. I do agree about the controls. I have a PC gamepad, and I customized the controls to work very well for me. However, I have no problem adjusting to the Halo 2 Xbox controls.

H1 gameplay on XBOX sucked entirely. It's horribly overated. I know, my tastes changed alot as I was away from here :P
I actually liked it a lot. All the twist and turns with the story I was all :o. I was like the first guy in my school to beat it lol. Then like a month later it was everyone's favorite game. <_<
