I find it funny that you are like, what 15, and try to tell far more experienced gamers what they should and shouldn't like. From what I can gather from you're many, many posts on these forums hardcore = guns and gore. I'm not gonna tell you to grow up as you are in fact a child but maybe you should think twice before laying down the law to people who have experienced gaming pre-Halo. Maybe it's just me but the biggest advocates of the 'leet', 'adult' systems seem to be rugrats, it's actually quite bizzare. |
It's not even pre-Halo that's a good measurement. I find that the people who like Halo 1 over Halo 2 because of the bad practices Halo 2 brought, the screaming headsets, cursing, easier game play, less strategy, etc etc, have the older style appearance. It's just sad that 'gamers' like that of what you describe here seem to be the target audience because they are the loudest ones who protest when they feel cheated.
Halo 1 gets more play time on monthly average in this household than Halo 2, which collects a lot of dust now. Even with multiplayer.
I think Microsoft's bad opinions of gamers is what killed their generation's respect. It's like promoting a virus.
Numbers: Checker Players > Halo Players
Checkers Age and replayability > Halo Age and replayability
Therefore, Checkers > Halo
So, Checkers is a better game than Halo.
