can someone explain or point me to a website for the storyline of Halo2. I did a quick google search but didn’t come up with anything useful. I love killing all these aliens, but I wish I knew why I was doing it or what the arbiter is doing. I probably should have listened to all those cut scenes but life is to short when there are grunts to whomp. ---

thanks, no wonder I couldn’t follow it. I did sort of wonder why the covenent seemed to be fighting amongst themselves. I wonder how many players were like me and had no idea what was going on
