XBOX / XBOX 360 Halo 2

Halo 2 is the sequel to the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo: Combat Evolved. In Halo 2, the saga continues as the genetically enhanced super soldier, Master Chief, must defend humanity from evil.

Halo 2 features an immense and epic single-player mode as the story picks up shortly after the end of the first game. The story delves deeper into the Covenant society, their goals, beliefs and alliances, as well as continuing the story of Master Chief ending the Covenant threat to Earth, as well as the next Halo ring. Halo 2 also introduces the Jiralhanae, who appear as large, furry, ape-like beasts in the campaign, though they don't sport shields like the Sangheili, their immense size and strength still make them formidable foes.
