Is Halo originally a Doom Rip off?

Hello friends,

I found similarities in both franchise. i mean take a look at this

This is original Doomguy wear green armor.

and then look at this

This is Haloguy wearing exact similar armor.

They both are hailed as some kind of messiah in thier games as they save humans from Demons/Aliens. When Doomguy Shoot Demons, Haloguy Shoot pokemon looking aliens. both have thier own signature weapon like shotgun and assault rifle.

when we look at games, the concept is similar. Alien invasion/Demonic invasion, saving humans from threats.

I feel like Halo either is heavily inspired by Doom or just rip off.

Doom series basically evolved yet Halo is combat devolved now.

Masterchief and Doomguy are exact same characters imo.

does anyone believe Halo and Masterchief rip off from Doom and Doomguy?

lets discuss.

Don't be ignorant. Space Marines predate Doom Guy.

I can't find an eyeroll gif big enough to do this thread justice.

"Exact similar armor."

I laughed haha

Its actually the other way around. Doom 2016 copied Halo 3 and Eternal copied Halo 5, especially the story part

I voted STALKER.

Particularly dimwitted thread.

Doom Eternal [xbox1] = unplayable

@Chutebox: 100% almost exactly the same thing.

Doom wishes it was as influential and as popular as Halo.

Doom will always be a poor mans wolfenstein. A poor man’s F.E.A.R. (Doom 3) or whatever other game doom try to copy.

John Carmack is the most overrated game developer of all time

Maybe? I still sometimes chuckle when I see chief's helmet. Looks like he's ready for bmx.

Truly, the similarities are mind-boggling. We're talking high-IQ here, people. At least 50.

Not Doom. Tribes.

*Sees thread on phone*

Must be a Ghost thread.

*Taps on thread*

Yup. Knew it.

You know, you and Doom could have much more privacy renting a motel room or something. Some here might even be willing to pay for your candles, bottle of champagne and bouquet of flowers just so you wouldn't make one of these threads for a while.

Give it some consideration.

@br0kenrabbit: I agree I see more of a tribes vibe too

I think you're confusing Halo with Marathon

To be fair Luigi wore it first:

Tribes VR would be sick. Don't lie, you know you'd vomit.

talk about being bored

Better discussion than "this game has two extra pixels on the (console name here)".

yeah i would lol

dont want Tribes VR but id love a new Tribes, nobody plays Tribes ascend anymore

There are so many moments in which the OP demonstrates that he can take stupid to lower levels. This thread is no exception my friends.

By that logic, dead space is a doom clone.

My friend. You probably thought up Combat Devolved at 3am and snickered to yourself about it. Then decided you must make a thread to put it out there.

Lets discuss.

"exactly similar"??? lol those words do not belong together.. they are either exactly the same or similar they can not be both

as for your premise about Halo being a rip off.. I do not see it, some similar elements, but there are only certain storylines you can tell before they repeat.

If we are going to say similar storylines means they are ripping each other off then heck any game where a hero tries to rescue a damsel in distress is a rip off of Mario Bros.. which is a rip off of a theme seen in many movies

Most AAA games are made with consoles in mind these days, and you can't play Tribes on a controller. Not really.

Well maybe they're the same person. I'm pretty sure I've never seen Doomguy and Master Chief in a room together before.

Can I get my braincells and time back please?

@dxmcat: This clown doesn't even play games, he spends 24/7 just bitching about them instead.

OMFG yes I want a new Tribes.

Who owns the rights, anyway? I know it was a Sierra game originally but they've been gone for a while now.

Didn't Hi-Rez Studios make the last Tribes?

@ghosts4ever:

Halo has regenerating health and Master Chief fights with other marines. The only thing that they have in common is the fact that they fight hordes of the enemy in large arenas. But that's basically every fps war game.

Heretic is a better Doom RIP off. Get your games right you casual.

Every game in a genre is a "ripoff" of a previous game in the genre by this logic.

Doom Eternal > Any Halo

can say that for a lot of peope on here, lulz

I think it borrowed more from James Cameron's Aliens than Doom. I would say aside from the green Doom guy armor, the look is much different, it would make a better case the Doom armor from new game looks more like Master Chief than Master Chief looking like the original Doom guy.

Nonetheless, we might not have ever had Halo without Doom coming first.

NO!!! as simple as that.

@Chutebox:

I was going to say the same thing lol.

Your posts are awful. Only a casual bandodging shitposter would feel good about them.

Kinda like sniper4321 and ghost4ever?

lol

@clone01: I'm not familiar with this sniper4321 person. 👀

it would be the same user at ghost4ever.

@Sushiglutton: Lmao
