Now before you all go jumping down my throat let me explain. The first Halo was widely accepted to be just as good as Half Life. (Even GS said it in a video review) Halo 2 was easily one of the best mutiplayer games ever when it came out, and Halo 3 surpass both those games in all ways. The reason why the Halo series is hated on so much is quite simple actually, it's the reason why emo music is hated on so much these days: because of popularity.

And the reason why Halo games are so popular is because of the quality. This has led to countless elitists who bash Halo games whenever possible because it's not a 10 year old game on the PC. The reality is that all Halo games have done a lot for console shooters.

And before someone brings up really old games, keep in mind that those games might have beengreat for their time but they are out dated in ever way possible compared to Halo 3.

Discuss :). Let's try and keep this as civil as possible.

I love the mp and coop. But better than F.E.A.R., HL2, Crysis(if it delivers). I have to say no. KB/M rules for FPS. The controller to me is too slow so it somewhat takes away.

Tc just stop this right now the original halo did not win GOTY,HL2 did not win GOTY and HL3 won't win GOTY either. Why because there are better fps on pc even though halo might score higher it's no matchfor pc fps.

In the opinion of the general public, halo 3 is the greatest FPS.. sales numbers say so, if crysis was so must have and convenient for the general public, it would sell more then 1/10 the sales of halo 3.

I'm positive all this has to do with opinion.Sir-Marwin105

Yes way. The only PC shooter to recieve a 9.5 like Halo 3 is Unreal Torunament and that game is dated in both graphics and gameplay compared to Halo 3.

Ok then, what is it that sets Halo apart, that makes it so unique that its leagues beyond all the PC shooters? Save films, shields, forge? There isn't a hair of originality in the entire series. Those all came from PC shooters. Halo is a good game, probably one of the best console shooters ever alongside Goldeneye 64, but better than the true bread and butter of the FPS genre, the PC? Don't even try to kid yourself.

In the opinion of the general public the Wii is the greatest console this generation, sales numbers say so. Glad you agree.

Please explain. I didn't just post 1 line and end it off with a laughing smiley face- I throughly explained myself. I think you are just angry that you can't find any arguement to back yourself up.

thing is you didn't back it up you posted arbitrary opinions and pointless facts... Gamespot overspoke, they do it alot. I GUARANTEE they would NEVER agree that Halo is as good as Half-Life. Half-Life 2 got GotY over Halo 2. Halo 3 had a worse SP than Halo: CE and the multiplayer is slightly worse than Halo 2... It doesn't improve on everything, it just gives a better balance of both... Just because you like Halo doesn't make it a better game. If we were to go by impact on the industry, success, story, depth and overall experience, Halo would fall in behind Half-Life by a large margin... There is no foolproof way to say what game is better than others, because thats all based upon opinion but more people would say that theHalf-Lifegames are better games than Halo games.

Keep telling yourself that myth if it makes you feel better. The reason why Halo: CE was rated lower on the PC was because it was years old already.

And yet when a PC game is released on consoles it gets relatively the same score? It doesn't make me feel better, its just a simple observation. Halo didn't even have dual weilding :|

lol, shut up. There are no higher pc standards, thats just a silly myth. Unreal Tournament also got a higher review score that year. So now are you going to say that Unreal Tournament games have lower standards than other pc shooters?

Stuff like Counter Strike has always held my interest over games Halo 2/3 (I actually liked Halo 2's multiplayer over 3) and even the everaging Deus Ex provides an stronger singleplayer over Halo 3 and 2.

Is what I say fact? No its opinion based and so is yours.
