So far, I've just left the space station, which means, that I am now
on the 4th level "Outskirts".

I think, that the level on the space station is very good, and also
quite long. The graphics is also very good, so how much do we actually
have 'space' for on this 4.7 GB DVD-ROM? -Could there be 10 more of
such levels, or maybe some of the next levels are shorter. The same as
the two first levels, where we saw basically just an introduction and
the arrival of Master Chief on the space station.

How many levels are there in Halo 2?

Is this a secret, or are we allowed to know?

A very good game, I think. Also much better than halo 1 in graphics
and design. That's how it looks to me so far.

The other thing you'll begin to notice is that a lot of the levels flow
together in such a fashion that it's difficult at first to determine the
start of a new level. Would have been nice if the status screen (with the
checkpoints) indicated the level.

Some of the levels are longer or shorter depending on how you go through
them. There are 15 in all. I was pretty shocked the first time we played
through in that we set down the controller and were on level 8 already.

The whole game is very good in my opinion. All of the levels are about as
long as Cairo Station. There are 15 levels, counting The Heretic and Armory
at the beginning. Just so you know, there's a really big surprise at the
sixth level. I won't give it away...

Is it me or are the arbiter levels a lot harder than the previous ones?
Kept dying until I learned to just hide.

The Arbiter levels are fairly difficult to do if you just use a head-on
assault strategy. Stealth becomes more necessary in those levels.

The normal DVD (DVD-5) can hold 4.7 GD. Halo 2 is pressed on a DVD-9 which
can hold 7.95 GB. I think the actual content is around 6 GB though.
