Halo introduced all kinds of things to the FPS world that other games take directly from.

Alright lets get some facts straight:

Halo revolutionized the regenerative health (no more hunting for health packs ala Quake, Doom, etc...)

Halo's matchmaking service is the best their is for games of this type (at least on consoles) Alot of games have tried copying their matchmaking (including Gears 2) and fail miserably.

Halo is still one of the only online multiplayer games where vehicles are actually balanced.

It revolutionized hot buttons for grenades as well as the hot button for the melee attack.

They also made it so you can only carry two primary weapons instead of every weapon on the map.

All in all if it weren't for Halo console FPS's would not be any where near what they are today.

So yes Halo is responsible for alot of games. And I mean ALOT.


agree with you... great point
