Microsoft - The Halo Effect - View Post

COD on console owes the world to Halo.  It's evolved off that formula over the course of the series, obviously.  But Halo:CE defined how FPS games would be played on consoles, and Bungie's layer of interface in Halo 2 over the backbone of Xbox Live provided the blueprints for all the shootery goodness we play today on both PS3 and Xbox (and in many ways, much to the chagrin of the purists and not necessarily for the better, PC).

Yep wether you love Halo or hate it you have to realize it's responsible for much of the awesomeness we play in shooters today no matter what the console.
