The hate is strong in here! I can't believe how much people actually hate on Halo for no apparent reason.

On topic, it's Bungie we're talking about here. They did a remarkable job with Halo 3. People thought Halo 2 was played so much because there was nothing else on Xbox, therefore Halo 3 would die out quickly. These people probably never really played the game. They have added so much to the game since it launched I was lost for a while when I played it the other day. I mean the feature set dwarfs Halo 2 in multiplayer and that's why people still play it.

^^Yep.

I wasn't impressed with Resistance 2.  That big monster battle was not very good.  The thing was incredibly slow and seemed to just look at you.  It picked you up a couple of times and you shoot it in the mouth and it puts you down.  Really lame.  I was, however, impressed with KZ 2.  The graphics looks great and the shooting looked great too.

I don't get it... wasn't Halo 3 the last in the story? MILK, MILK, MILK.

What u should be debating over is that all the other franchises that came out within those 7 or so years, weren't shooters. Halo is!

What shooters have had 5 sequels come out within 7 years?

Won't this kill off the franchise, like Quake and UT?

The tagline was Finish the Fight.  If you actually played the game and beat it,  you would know otherwise.

@the 5 sequels in 7 years:  Call of Duty says Hi.  Plus Halo has only had 3 games in 7 years.  Halo CE launched in 2001.

Arguably, the best shooter series ever made is HalfLife. The reason Halo is popular is cause of the "pick up and play style", mind u though, Halo is very good, but not the best. The best shooter for me still though, is Deus-Ex. It had an amazing story, multiple endings, good or evil play and was the first shooter to have RPG elements. I want more like this.

So, at the end of the day, Halo is just another shooter for me in a big shooter pile.

Bungie= quality. They listen to the community, refine the product and give the Halo fans what they want and more.
As long as the quality stays high I say grab a bucket, warm your hands and milk..milk...milk!

And BF has already been mentioned. Halo isn't doing anything else that hasn't been done. Unlike CoD, Halo has sold better, too. Not every high-selling series gets 4 games in 7 years, I agree. However, it's not new territory for the FPS industry.
