Halo 2
The Halo series is fantastic. Or, well, depending on who you are, you could say it’s been fantastic up until Halo: Reach. You could also say that Halo 2’s kind of divisive ending leaves much to be desired as compared to the rest of the game and to the others in the series.
Cliffhanger endings more or less work depending on how you structure them but Halo 2’s abrupt ending made the entire journey up until that point feel like it suddenly just left you hanging.
It was such an obvious lead up into Halo 3 but you could also argue that this ending just showed how badass Master Chief is. He had to leave Cortana behind on High Charity and, as he says, finish the fight without any hesitation.
Either way, we’re glad Halo 2 has finally been released in the Master Chief Collection.
