Rpruett said:I'm not saying Halo ISN'T a good game.  (While I personally don't enjoy it all that much...It was better than 2 though.) It's well made and well liked by many.  To say that it wasn't more hyped than ANY game in recent times is downright silly though.   Halo has more hype than Mario...And that's saying something.  From Doritos to Pepsi products, to minute long commericals.

 

Who said anything about Halo 3 not being the most hyped game of all time? Everyone is in agreeance on that fact. All I tried to explain to people like you is that the original hype and marketing only serves to sell copies. It does not keep players coming back to the game for 1.5 years even after they have purchased other games in the mean time.

The bottom line is that Halo 3 is the most played console shooter of all time because of it's quality, and Bungie's constant effort to keep the game fresh with new map packs that are flawlessly designed.
