Really? Why is that? |
Halo came into the world as the only decent game on xbox with mainstream and casual appeal. Since it had literally zero competition it became a huge hit. Other devs saw the sales numbers but none of the reasons why it sold well and started to churn out mediocre fps after mediocre fps to the detriment of all other genres (and the fps market which is flooded with crap). Halo also brought with it the success of console online, and while devs focused solely on that, strong single player modes and local multiplayer, console gamings bread and butter, fell to the wayside in favor of slapping in some deathmatch and ctf modes.
Time for hype
