Due to Halo becoming a killer app that sold the XBox platform, it ended up, along with Call of Duty, putting FPS on consoles as a major genre that people by consoles for. Just like Gran Turismo did for console driving sims, Halo did for FPS on consoles. Because of this, it deserves the praise it gets. And considering the state it is in now, with myself not really seeing ANY Halo fanboys about these days on forums, I am hard pressed to say it is overratede. Overrated by whom? Killzone gets more cheerleaders on here than Halo, and I wouldn't call Killzone overrated now. Also both Halo and Killzone both got beverages, so the ONE thing Halo had in terms of overrated factor is now gone: getting a beverage for itself.

Only on here is Killzone loved, for some reason this forum has a higher percentage of sony fanboys than any other forum I'm on. Any other gaming place I go, both in person or online, is just "halo, call of duty, halo, call of duty, halo vs call of duty, oh, and gears of war." Killzone, Resistance, Left 4 Dead, and any other multiplatform or exclusive games get almost no recognition. Any assertion that you like Killzone makes you a "PS3 Fanboy", and are instantly laughed at for it.
Personally, I think Bulletstorm is more fun than any Halo, Call of Duty, Killzone, Resistance, or Gears of War game. maybe not as objectively good, but leaps and bounds ahead in the fun department. I think Duke Nukem will be next in line for my "fun, lighthearted FPS game".
