Tweak Halo 2 with the "Halo 2 Hacks" book

Halo 2 Hacks (O'Reilly) delivers totally fresh ways to enjoy the Halo universe again and again - tweak Halo 2 with the Best of the Glitchers, Tricksters, and Modders, discovered from the book by Stephen Cawood, former Microsoft employee and original member of the Halo 2 beta test team.

Whether they're still learning the basics and looking for that lethal edge or they've already beaten Halo 2 six ways to Sunday (on Legendary, of course) and can make their way across Lockout with their eyes closed, players will learn to tweak and tinker with Halo 2 in ways they never imagined. "Halo 2 Hacks" shows players how to:

Find and use the Halo 2 skulls to adjust the difficulty from slightly easier to insanely difficult;
Discover amusing and outrageous secrets hidden in the game;
Exploit the glitches in the Halo 2 game engine;
Get an edge on some key maps by getting above the action;
Get set up with the right software to mod Halo 2;
Mod weapons, vehicles, and maps;
Explore the best fan-created maps and start creating their own;
Make movies out of the in-game action;

Readers will discover nooks and crannies they didn't even suspect were there and unleash all sorts of unexpected secrets and glitches in Halo 2. There are hordes of great hacks for weapons, levels, vehicles, game play, and mods-and each includes a thermometer icon to indicate how complex the hack is (beginner, moderate, or expert).

Players can read the book cover to cover or simply pick a hack, any hack-every entry promises a new and improved way to experience Halo 2 and inspires gamers to try clever stunts of their own.
