November 7, 2004 Link to this post Danish review, and general Screenshots policy Victor wrote in with details about Gamereactor's Halo 2 review (Gamereactor is a Scandinavian gaming mag) - it got a 10/10, with the following pros and cons (thankfully translated by Victor): Pros: Amazing graphics, formidable sound and captivating game play in both single- and multiplayer.
Cons: You must have good knowledge of the world of Halo in order to fully understand the story. He also sent a link to the actual review (in Danish). There are a bunch of new screenshots; we're going to break with our usual tradition of giving credit to the first place that posts screens, because Microsoft distributed HUNDREDS of screens to press (and yes, for the first time in a long time, we were on the list), and they'll be ALL OVER THE NET by this afternoon. (The embargo ends at noon Pacific time today, so you'll be seeing screens, reviews, and all sorts of other things flooding the net in the next few hours. We'll do our best to keep up.) Update: Another Scandinavian voice heard from - VG Nett gave Halo 2 a 6/6. Thanks, aksel. Update 2: warning, morriss points out that the Gamereactor review is full of story spoilers. Again, since I don't read Danish, I'm taking his word for it. (Louis Wu 16:00:56 UTC)
