HALO:REACH will be the best halo game to date....Cannot wait

The FPS KING is back  to take back its crown!!!

Eerrr.... no. Halo has never been king of the genre, it may have been a Bishop, but never king. The king for single-player first-person shooters was always Half-Life and the king for multi-player first-person shooters was always Counter-Strike. I hope it becomes the best game in the series, I fear that it could be the worst, even worse than ODST and Halo Wars.

Half Life was an awesome game but Halo has had a bigger impact on the FPS genre

No, Half-Life practically revolutionized the genre. By creating a believable and palpable FPS, items that were placed in plausible locations. It even shown what can be done with A.I. for first-person shooters. It was also revolutionary on how it told a story, there were no cutscenes and every scripted event unveiled the storyline. Halo didn't do anything new, it just took a bunch of shit from other games and put them into one smoothly polished and expertly designed package. Halo is more popular than Half-Life, but Half-Life is more influential and innovative. Halo wouldn't be the way it is without Half-Life.
