Halo Game Question - Does it Matter Which One I Buy ?

Am considering buying an XBox. I see there are a few Halo games available.

Do the games run roughly in sequence or can I buy any game?

I believe if you were going in order, Reach would be first, but I may be wrong. (I'm not talking in order of release date)

I think its (from first to last)

Reach

ODST

Combat Evolved

Halo 2

Halo 3

Please correct me, I think I'm pretty wrong.

The Halo trilogy is a set, and while you could basically play any of them, it would really be best to play them in the right order. However, Reach, ODST and Wars are set outside that main trilogy (for the most part).muthsera666

Also Halo Wars has a time line in it and also a RTS game.

Thx much for the timeline. As the game would be for an young teen, he may not care about carefully following all the games in order. The last 2

Halo games may be the way to go. As long as its not serious enough for example as reading The Hobbitthenskipping right to The Return of the King.

If you plan on getting the first or second Halo then get them for the PC because I heard they can still be played on-line.
