Ok here is what the Halo series revolutionized:

It made FPS the most popular by far genre of game.

It has the hands down absolute best online matchmaking.

It revolutionized the melee attack.

It brought regen health to the forefront. (think no more picking up health packs)

It also brought WELL BALANCED vehicles to online play.

 

Well that is the kind of post I was expecting. Fair enough.

Guess I'll have to try the games on online multiplayer one day.

Still for me, everything Halo brought Gears did better (except vehicles). But that's just my opinion.

Well, when Halo first brought these things, it was what, 5 years earlier? And the soundtrack.... Halo's soundtrack is one of the greatest of all time. You find me 1 old halo player who can walk by the opening screen music without wanting to play...
