Coming from a sour PS3 fan : Halo3 is my all time favorite game .
@Jinova
Try the game before you judge it. Better yet give me 5 specific reasons you personally dont like . Meh, who am i kidding? Go on with your hating.

anyone who thinks that without halo youd still have even half the shooters out today, is like a holocaust denier

and im a halo hater



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Anyway, may as well go back to basics, since Valve admitted that Doom was their inspiration for Half-Life.

Therefore Doom > All.

 

you know Wolf 3D came before Doom so Wolf 3D > Doom.

Ive never been a fan of the series, but isnt Halo credited for starting the health regen thing? Instead of picking up health packs? That alone is pretty cool.

 

Halo started that?? Fuck Halo then. Health regen is the biggest bullshit ever. Sure, health packs may be a little bit unrealistic, but it doesn't make the combat itself any different than it should be. Full health regen after a few seconds is the worst thing to happen to shooters ever, that I can think of. It completely invalidates certain guns and playing styles, and makes it hard for a shooter to be anything other than one of those 'macho-man in power armour wading through thousands of enemies thing'

 

[/rant]

I dunno... collecting hundreds of health packs through out a game nowadays seem obsolete. More focus on action less on health pack collection.

I don't see it.

 

I've just come from playing battlefield 1942 and CS with a mate, and both of those games got it right.

 

In Battlefield, if you want healing, you need someone to be a medic, or to find a healing station. There are actually disadvantages to getting shot. 

In counter strike, there is no healing. Once again, being shot is not a good thing

In Halo, it doesn't matter if you get taken down to 1 hp, as long as you kill those around you. No penalty for being shit. (haha, that was a typo, it was meant to say shot. but I think it makes sense as is)

Halo proved that it´s possible to make excelent fps games in home consoles ( not only in pc ) and that you can play it with a pad, but don´t think it was so revolucionary as many say. Still, very good game ( 8,75/ 10).
