As of tomorrow Halo 2, one of the greatest online multiplayer shooters, is officially taken off of Xbox Live service. I got a few last games in with some friends. I'll miss the Midship FFAs. TS Lockouts. Ball on Midship/Lockout. Many other game types and maps. It's a sad day my friends. A very sad day.

I think Halo 1 is still the best, at least took the most skill to master, especially online with the bullet lag.

But Halo 2 was really the break out game because of the online capabilities. And...the service ends today. I just got the Final Notice email. The only good part is I got 3 Months of XBL, 400 MS Points, and entry into the Halo: Reach beta free because of it.
