What our customer's say!

"2nd edition, more goodness", My only real complaint on this disc are the tracks that have mainstream band tie-ins. With exception of track 2 "Blow me Away" I could do without all the other 'non-score' tracks.

Other than that I like the disc and listen to it often. Good stuff!

"Halo in a different light...", I recently bought this CD and listen to it with my Halo obsessed boys. Upon the beginning of each song, I'm given a lesson -from my boys- about where the song is in the video game and what is happening at the time- Master Chief's continuing struggle to save the world. Listening to the songs apart from the video game has given me a whole new listening experience...one that I very much enjoy. I feel the struggle and determination. Wonderful!

"Halo 2 Delivers!", Halo 2 sounds a lot different from the first one, but still keeps some of its signature tunes. The "Halo" song from the first game gets a makeover with rock. Also included are recorded songs from Breaking Benjamin "Blow me Away" which is good but I wish it was the instrumental from the game. Incubus brings all 4 "Movement of the Odyssey" with the best one (in my opinion) being the first one "Follow." Hoobastank's "Connected" was good in the game but it's not my favorite from the album.

Great music overall! "Ghosts Of Reach" begins beautifully and gets into the drums towards the end, "Heretic, Hero" "Flawed Legacy" and "Remembrance" have some of the original sounds from the previous album all which have been remade and they're quite good ("Remembrance" is "The Maw" with more female dominant vocals). "Never Surrender" is your fix of dance, a remix of the Halo them with "never surrender" and Cortana's voice used throughout. There is also the beautiful "Heavy Price Paid" which is used during the game's loading sequence, the battle-ready "Earth City" Flood-ridden-creepy "Ancient Machine" dreamy-like "Orbit of Glass" simply amazing "The Last Spartan" a fix of classical of rock and the most beautiful song "High Charity" is completely atmosphereic. Truly, it sounds like a dream!

Best: Halo, Blow me Away, Ghost of Reach, all 4 Odysseys, Heretic, Hero, The Last Spartan, Heavy Price Paid, Orbit Of Glass, Earth City, High Charity, and Remembrance.

Another Halo soundtrack that doesn't disappoint! If you liked the first one or you enjoy movie/video game soundtracks, get this!

One quick note, not all the music from Halo 2 is on this CD. If you want more of the score or to complete the collection, "Halo 2 Volume 2" has what you're looking for.

The "Mad Mind" has spoken.

"Awesome. Fast", The Cd is Great. It arrived very fast, and faster than I what I expected

"Great Soundtrack!", Playing the game is sweet, but being able to listen to the actual soundtrack is just as awesome. The score is arranged very well and really gets you into the game without playing it. Great CD!

"Amazing", This is probably one of the best music CDs ever released. As soon as you start, you want to lsten until the end. My favorite is the Halo Theme Mjolnir Mix, a brilliant piece of art using only instruments. This soundtrack has gone horribly unnoticed. If you are a techno or Halo fan, you must get this CD.

"A Beautiful CD, even If You're not a Halo Fan.", But How can you NOT be, right? I'll tell you what I felt about each song...

1.Halo Theme Mjolnir Mix-It was great, of course Steve Vai was fabulous. But I felt something was missing. Can't put my finger on it.
2.Blow Me Away-When I first heard it I was like, (groan of dilemna), nah then I rated it 3 stars.
3.Peril-Beautiful, awesome, passionate work by Marty.
4.Ghosts Of Reach-This is an awesome addition to Rememberance.
5.Follow-NO. The part before the singing? Maybe. But the rest-NO.
6.Heretic,Hero-Possibly the best one on there. My fave w/o question. I'm listening to it now.:)
7.Flawed Legacy-Yes, YES, we all remember the sleeping Grunts. I liked this one, especially how it ended.
8.Impend-2ND FAVORITE!! But it kinda sounds like a beat Micheal Jackson rejected.
9.Never Surrender?? Oh, god. Look, I respect Nile Rodgers and Nataraj for what they were trying to do, but it JUST DIDN'T WORK. I doubt you'll hear this blasting in the clubs.
10.Ancient Machine-I thought it was wierd and just too short.
11. 2nd Movement-Long, but it's gotta mean something, right??
12.In Amber Clad-Awesome. Just Sweet.
13.Last Spartan-Hmm, where have I heard this before??...Oh that's right.
14.Orbit of Glass-Not much to say here. Pretty good.
15.3rd Movement-I really liked this one because of the transition to the 4th.
16.HPP-Nice and sad.I really like it.
17.Earth City-Really motivational, nice to work with.
18.HC-My new favorite. This one opens your soul and leaves you wanting more.
19.4th Movement-this one made me cry. That's all I'm gonna say.
20.Rememberance-kinda boring.
21.Connected-whoa, whoa. You're gonna end the album with THIS?!?!? B@$&^*@$T!!

I still think you should pick up this album. Great listen.

"Too many "non-rocking" Halo nerds...", Really, how is it that so many people are giving this CD low reviews because of Breaking Benjamin, and Incubus? Those bands are freakin' amazing! You nerds really need to open yourself up more, in a musical sense.

Personally speaking, since this was a various artists album, I was hoping for more artist music, and not gaming music.

But... 4 Stars overall. Definitely worth the buy!

"To the Unfaithfuls", First off, Marty rocks!! He's my hero. This soundtrack is great for anyone to listen to, even if you're not a huge Halo player. The instrumental music at the beginnings of some the songs are absolutely gorgeous (i.e.-Impend). Also, any Halo 2 player will instantly remember where thy have heard the music in the game.
But really-what's with all these people who are badmouthing the soundtrack because it doesn't have all the music? Maybe if they had half a brain they would realize it's called Halo 2 VOLUME 1 for a reason!!!!! And they could've checked the Bungie website, because one of the first things that Bungie announced at the release of this soundtrack was that there would be another volume of music coming out later. So stop complaining!! Vol. 2 comes out on 4/26/06!!!!

"Great Soundtrack, But With Missing Pieces from the Game", I was kinda mixed on reviewing this product: the music selections are really awesome (both the rock'n'roll and the atmospheric instrumentals), but I felt like that I bought a slightly remixed version of the game soundtrack.

For example, I do remember an Enya's short "Sail Away" musical piece in one of the Halo 2's background music (when playing the game), but this was eliminated in this CD (Not to worry, folks, as it doesn't really affects the whole atmosphere of the game music). In addition, I have to use the fast-forward button in some of its tracks, as this CD had condensed several pieces in one track.

Unlike some of the other reviewers who griped about the lyrics that were included from the rock'n'roll bands, I think that it was a little unfair to judge them--as those bands deserve credit for their contribution.

However, you will be slightly disappointed if you are looking for a direct conversion of the Halo 2's game soundtrack. All in all, I still think that this is an excellent CD.
