Halo was never particularly good (in my opinion) and built a reputation by being the best game on the XBox at launch and one of the only console games of its time to have 16 player lan play. The lan play is fun, but I'm pretty sure that Barbie's Horse Adventures would be pretty fun playing with your 15 closest friends.

I haven't played Halo 2 or Halo 3 (and have no interest) so it may have gotten better and less repetative in newer versions ...

WoW, i knew the fanboys would come, but holy shit, barbies horse adventure.

 

ALso you shouldnt be talking you havent played them.

 

Seriously im disgusted by the responses to this, barbies horse adventure?

I think you missed my point, Halo (the original) was not as good of a single player game as Half Life, Deus Ex or System Shock 2 which came out several years before it; was not as good of a multiplayer game as Counter Strike, Unreal Tournament, Quake 3 or Tribes which came out several years before it. The only thing that made Halo (the original) special was that it was a Lan console game ...

And yes, any lan game of 8 or 16 people is a lot of fun ...

I'm not commenting on Halo 2 or Halo 3 because I haven't played them, but after the cut-n-paste experience of Halo I have no interest in these games.

thats making assumptions, ive never had a better single player experience then halo, thats my opinion, just dont make broad assumptions
