I think you got who's suit looks like who's... Masterchief and the whole crew are the most generic group of cronnies to ever be mass produced.

Samus = original.

Masterchief = boring pre-ejaculate main character in 100 different games.

Comparing a masterpiece of gaming to Halo is crazy.

 

I'm afraid you lost the argument entirely if you're describing Metroid games as a masterpiece (or even KZ2 if I've got your meaning wrong).  Also I'm pretty sure Metroid didn't enter the FPS arena till one year after Halo was released so who is really copying who?

I can't think of one game that's copied Halo, especially halo 1. The graphics were horrid, and all it provided was a poor system with a half way decent game in comparison to the rest of it's library, which is why it blew up. All Xbox had was DOA3 and Halo. Metroid Prime (each version) is far superior to Halo (each version) in every way, including graphics.

I'd much rather have the original Xbox than a 360 for it's MAME abilities. Most everything the 360 has that's worth playing is multiplatformed anyways, whether it's on PS3 or if the 360 recieved its mediocre copy from the PC. Seriously, what defining experience has Halo offered compared to other major titles, even Gears of War? Halo's time is over, COD took that medal away in ALL aspects, and at least that game has some depth to it. At least Microsoft new to stop while they were ahead.

 

Haze. 

The xbox was by the far the superior console hardware wise last generation.

Fable 2, Gears Of War 2, Forza 2, Halo 3, Crackdown, Dead Rising, etc.  If you want to be in denial over the many fun 360 exclusives then fine, but don't paint such a cack picture if you haven't played them, also I'm willing to bet I game far more than you do on PC too.

If you don't know what Halo brought forward in terms of FPS innovation then perhaps you shouldn't comment on the game, it just shows your complete lack of knowledge on the matter you're discussing.  For the record, in my opinion both Halo 2 and 3 look better than the MP counterparts.  Halo 1 wasn't quite as nice but then again it was released an entire year before the first MP.
