Halo - what's so great about it?

I agree with Montana. Those are the only two actual things that Halo has accomplished (although vehicles can be argued against, too).

I dislike regenerating health, the way Halo does it. I'm more of a "very slowly regenerate, but also have health packs" guy. Something like Left 4 Dead meets Call of Duty 4 slow-regen.

 

Take it you haven't played Halo CE?  It has a slowly-regenerating energy shield, on top of a health bar.

 

No, actually, that's the only one I've played to a significant degree. I've played Halo 2 a few times, and Halo 3 once, but I've actually beaten Halo CE & played it online quite a few times.

That doesn't really count much, because the "health bar" is only about 10% of a typical health bar. Not the same idea, and not very well done.
