I don't get that either though. What makes the story generic?

That's a question of curiosity too, not an attack or flame.

How have you been here long enough to make 12,000 posts, but fail to realize labelling something as "generic garbage" is 100% pure trolling? Of course, it could be that you don't care.

how is it trolling? I've owned the games. Played all three main series games for at least 50 hours a piece not including single player. I've stated plenty of times that many games have come before and after it that has done everything it offers better. Tribes, Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, GoldenEye 007, Unreal, Battlefield, COD, Half-Life, Counter Strike, Shattered Horizen, Resistance, Killzone, etc all have done everything Halo has done in one sense or another way better. No matter if its Teamplay, balancing, weapons selection, control, size and scale, story etc they have done it better.

I'm also stating an opinion. Don't like it? I really don't care. You can't and wont change my opinion as I wont change yours. Many people agree with my view as others agree with yours. Whining about possible trolling when there is none to be had makes you the true troll here.

The only game that had more hype out of the ones you mentioned is starcraft 2 and back in 2007 when Crysis released the hype for it was bigger, come on use your common sense, even if it is hard for you.

You always make me laugh ssj12, your arguments are so shoddy and you contradict yourself so many times even in a single post that I don't even think you know what your trying to say. You argue that the best games are niche titles yet claim that Starcraft, WoW and Half-Life are the best evar. You do realize none of those are niche titles right, or do I need to get you a dictionary to define what niche means?

I think the best part is how you defend pc games to the death but can't even name a single innovative thing something like Half-Life did while I can write you a mini novel on Halo's innovations. Mind you I'm not saying Half-Life is bad, in fact it is very good, the problem is you just make really shitty arguments. Now I don't know if thats because your not good at writing down your ideas into words or if you just have really "eccentric" tastes in games. Judging by how you think Crysis is better than Halo I'm going to go with the latter.

Oh well at least your not like some of the other hardcore PC fans and can enjoy current games unlike others who will not be mentioned by name and who think every game that has come out after the year 2001 is trash, oh nostalgia what a funny thing.
