Halo was never particularly good (in my opinion) and built a reputation by being the best game on the XBox at launch and one of the only console games of its time to have 16 player lan play. The lan play is fun, but I'm pretty sure that Barbie's Horse Adventures would be pretty fun playing with your 15 closest friends.

I haven't played Halo 2 or Halo 3 (and have no interest) so it may have gotten better and less repetative in newer versions ...


WoW, i knew the fanboys would come, but holy shit, barbies horse adventure.

 

ALso you shouldnt be talking you havent played them.

 

Seriously im disgusted by the responses to this, barbies horse adventure?


I think you missed my point, Halo (the original) was not as good of a single player game as Half Life, Deus Ex or System Shock 2 which came out several years before it; was not as good of a multiplayer game as Counter Strike, Unreal Tournament, Quake 3 or Tribes which came out several years before it. The only thing that made Halo (the original) special was that it was a Lan console game ...

And yes, any lan game of 8 or 16 people is a lot of fun ...

I'm not commenting on Halo 2 or Halo 3 because I haven't played them, but after the cut-n-paste experience of Halo I have no interest in these games.


thats making assumptions, ive never had a better single player experience then halo, thats my opinion, just dont make broad assumptions

                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

Man Alex whats with you? You get this pissed off when someone makes fun of Adam Sessler?

 Idont even know who he is (I english major, I hate one liners and I hate it when people say shit without explaining themselves) I also hate it when no one is clever or intelligent. 

 

I dont have G4 either, o well, from what I have heard its a crappy channel anyway.

 

Now i'm all flustered and havent said anything witty in the past couple of minutes, this makes me a sad panda.

Just stopping by.

I really don't know what you expect me to say. You just keep poking and prodding at me, expecting me to say something. What do you want me to say? That I hate Halo 3 and the 360 and I'm some closet fanboy?

Because I can't lie. Sorry.

 Yes. Yes. Yes. YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!

I know What's his name is attacking me and you're a fanboy but that doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to get a break here.

I've explained myself, and if you don't want to stop bothering me, I can just query a mod to lock this. I'm getting sick of this. It's annoying me and ruining what was otherwise a good day.

Not to be rude, but you're 17 and it is likely that you never played any of the first person shooters I mentioned (Halo came out when you were 11) ... If I started the average 11 year old on an unimpressive FPS (like Red-Steel) they would probably have fond memories and think it was the greatest thing ever.

I'm not saying you're wrong or that I'm right, but my dislike of Halo is not based on some sort of fanboy bias ...
