I think Halo got better with each game. But it is not the best series ever and frankly CoD4 has taken the multiplayer award from them too so if that's what some people care about then they won't last long in that department either.

There are so many better series than the Halo games. The Half Life series, Zelda series, GTA series, Metal Gear Solid series, etc etc etc.

Agreed. H2 and 3 were more like graphical upgrades and expansion packs IMO.

Not in the least. It gets totally trumped by game series like Mario, Zelda, Castlevania, Metroid, etc. that have been out for more than a decade. Unfortunately for Halo, it is going to get milked so badly over the next few years it won't ever be able to match the quality of series like Castlevania, Zelda or Metroid.

Not even close. I'd give examples but plenty before me have already done that.

Milked worse than Castlevania or Mario? That's hard to beat.

Most releases in the main Mario and Castlevania series are quality titles. The thing with Halo is, all the main releases are going to just end up being cash-ins, since Bungie is no longer working with Microsoft and the IP is an absolute gold-mine for them.

You cannot tell me with a straight face that the Mario Bros., Mario World, and Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy games are "milked" in any way. The platformers have been going since 1985 and still have yet to release a game that was "bad."

While I don't consider Halo the best series ever overall I do consider it the best series in the FPS category. I think it'll probably remain so for some time to come.

Of course not but how many non platforming Mario games have there been? I'm actually curious to see how many games featured Mario in the last 5 years. Besides hasn't Shigeru Miyamoto not been the main man working on the platformers for some time now? What I'm saying is that the people working on the games need to be given a fair chance first. Rare is still the same company but many people are different from those that were there during their time at Nintendo and for them it didn't work out.

Threads like these make me feel old (no offense to the TP). Serioiusly, I can't count the number of times this question has been disected and analyzed over the years. It is a never ending debate.

Halo is a good game and a fun series. Thats all that should be said.

Halo is an OK game at best, and it is very VERY far away from being the best game ever.

Personally, I don't find it to be the best series to currently exist based on experience. Could it be to others? Sure. Just depends on how you experienced it. Did some mystical being from the sky come down and declare it to be the best series? Nope...

I have to agree with this fella. I tried to play through the first Halo and I just couldn't stay interested in it. It felt so boring.
