Halo is the console equivalent Counterstrike ...

In a way these 2 games have more in common with each other than lets say Halo does to call of duty. For instance play them both side to side they have the same Gameplay mechanics both have a developer that loves its fans and who listens to their suggestions . Counterstrike has that tactical Run and Gun gameplay like Halo does. both games offer a wide range of customization ( yea counterstrike you can go more nuts with mods but halo atleast offers something to keep the game fresh). weather you like it or not Halo is a juggernaut of a shooter on the console just like CS and CSS are on PC.

Counter strike in it's prime was a bigger gaming sensation than halo. In my opinion.

i have to disagree.....counter strike is hardcore....it doesnt have auto aim....it requires more than a shotgun or sword.....there is actual strategy required....not to mention skill.....and no respawns.....halo is fun....but cs it is not.....sry to be a buzzkill.....but i dont have to work in halo to be good....if i dont play cs for a month i suck....if i dont play halo for a month.....im still gonna finish in the top 4......

A fair enough comment, I personally prefer any Halo over Counterstrike.

But how is Halo customizable??

I...Like...to...type...like...this. Seriously, whats with that?

Ironic thing is...

CSS was amazing couple years back no aiming down sights and having to pay for armor!!!!!!! O,O

mw2 isone of the bestshooters out there

Halo is the pro game meaning all pros play it and NO HACKS!!!!!

my favorite has to be a tie between CSS and mw2, Halo is kinda overrated for me (prob cause i suck at it) storyline is up there with mgs

Counter Strike for Xbox is like the console version of Counter Strike.

Halo is good, but not CSS much. And what are you talking about customization? Theres about NO custimization in halo 3 except your gear. What does halo offer to keep it fresh also? A map pack? Pfft. CSS has new maps EVERY DAY. Hundreds, maybe thousands.kris9031998

Forge and a great amount of customizability with the game parameters and an out-of-the-box mechanism to share with the community. I don't think any other console game offers that... and is as popular.

see now people are starting to get it Im not Compairing just saying Counter strike for how old and dated its gameplay style is its FUN! and has a great community still with tons of support same with halo been same gameplay for 10 years but the game is still a Juggernaut on Console . I mean you can say its overrated and this and that but at the end of the Day every game is still trying to comapre to it like every game will say "OH ITS A HALO KILLER " still to this day people are still trying to beat it only one to come close is COD And with the release Of Reach will be fun to see who's on top. new gameplay and according to bungie insane customization with character models , and firefight customization with what waves of enemy's u want to what type of AI you want them to have , Make your own skills and have their own effect . really waiting to see how FORGE will turn out so much has been shown already and still a lot more to come .

"Tactical Run and Gun" huh? you can be tactical or you can run and gun, the two don't really mix or am I missing something here? as far as halo and CS comparision, You buy guns at the start of the round in cs, you dont respawn (usually), you dont empty a clip and then press one button to melee kill someone, there are no (official) ranks, Halo is more suited to Xbox with auto aim whereas CS is, as every FPS should be, more suited to PC. CS has lived longer and will probably continue to live longer than halo.
