Kyle just got Halo 2 this morning and has been playing some multiplayer to check it out. Hand-to-Hand combat is pretty much the same w/ the addition of the energy sword.



It's also looking like sniping will be a whole lot easier now that the maps are twice the size of the original ones. There are objects everywhere that can be turned into hide outs for a sniper. You can also sniper with the main assault rifle now since it has a scope/zoom.
