IF you're in it for the multiplayer, maybe wait until the bugs have been fixed.
If you're in it for the single player campaign, it's an Easy Recommend.

The campaign plays and looks the way I remember Halo 2 looking, not the way it actually looked, but the way I remember the game looking. and that is probably the highest praise I can bestow on a remaster of an old classic game.

In terms of the single player/coop campaign... it's a really great PC port with a number of flaws that feel like they could be fixed through patches, it's just unclear if they ever will be.

Despite these flaws I loved almost every minute of it!

In terms of the multiplayer, it has much more severe flaws... which is a shame, since historically it was one of the better Halo multiplayer experiences... to the degree that when Bungie shut down the servers, a group vowed to stay logged in, to keep the servers going for as long as possible. They managed to extend them for 28 days.

But I digress. Problems with hit-detection, shooting the floor with the shotgun can kill anyone close, rockets fired by the rocket launcher will spawn behind you, making you shoot yourself in the back, potentially also betraying teammates... to mention just a few deal-breakers. 343 is working on fixes for all these, though... so if you're in it for the multiplayer alone, maybe wait a bit.

If your thing is the single player campaign, however, Go for it. it wont disappoint.
