I first played Halo on the Xbox(did quiet a bit of coop split screen with a friend too.) It was an average game, and the series still is average to this day. I did however, understand that it was a special game for a console. There were always better FPS than Halo, there are better FPS than Halo 3, and there will already be FPS better than Reach, but not everybody has hundreds of dollars to spend on a decent PC, and I understand that.

My computer back then also handled Halo just fine when it came out for PC, but then again, I lived in the US.

What FPS games were/are objectively better than Halo? Subjectively any opinion is worth as much as any other.

There are a lot, the problem is a lot of people have childhood goggles, kinda like me with NES, when you are younger, you really don't give much rat's ass about the actual quality of a product. One thing Halo is defintely good at is that it's accessible, other than that, there really isn't anything truly special about it vs FPS on PC, but I understand that it was an important product that ended up proving that FPS can be done on consoles with dual analog aim assist. Hitting each other on the back of the head during coop was pretty awesome though.
