Playing Halo is like playing Pong compared to Half-Life, and Half-Life 2. Nevermind CS. But yeah, Halo is a good for a console FPS.

halo ce is extremely superior to half-life 1 + cs in every way...

the story is superior by a longshot. the atmosphere is superior. the actually gameplay is much more fun and innovative and has much more depth to it. the graphics are about leveled in comparison for their time.

im sorry, but HL1 is a cookie cutter FPS in comparison to Halo CE.

As a gamer who has played Halo since it came out, and playing Half Life 2, Halo fails in comparison with Half Life 2 in the story part. Half Life 2feels oppressive, because you actually see yourown peoplebeing enslaved as soon as you get out of the train. I have read all the Halo novels(exept the new one) and its still interesting, but Half Life has the best atmosphere.

Half Life was revolutionary when it was released, but it doesn't hold up when compared to newer shooters.

I don't understand how everyone found Halo so Innovative. The weapons: WOW different weapons thats a first let's look at Unreal Tournament that has had those weapons before Halo. Or Even Ratchet and Clank (alothough different genre) had more innovative weapons before halo. The Online: It's ok yes...but Socom 3 tops it in about every way and that was out first. The Storyline: Yes the storyline is compelling it's good, but thats not that amazing believe it or not FF7 had a much better story line. The Gameplay: Yeah a FPS its fun but it's not the best game FPS ever....Think of more innovative things like Duke Nukem when it first came out. The Graphics: great for it's time but you never buy a game because of graphics. Here's my take on how the Halo Craze was born.....There were a lot of people who bought a Xbox and waited and waited for good game. They get one and they blow it out of proportion because they finally have somethign worth playing. Halo might just be one of the most overrated games ever made. Give me a Zelda, Half-Life, Final Fantasy or anyother half decent game before I'll take Halo.

Gameplay - HL1 revolutionized FPS? As did Halo CE with the integration of sandbox, non-anchored vehicles for both SP and MP...one button for all weapon melee....one button press for throwing actual integrated grenades....recharging shields....etc

I DID NOT say HL1 wasn't innovative or revolutionary, I just said I found Halo CE's MORESO

Halo CE was a completely new and refreshing feel for an FPS. and i played all the big ones prior to it.

the funny thing is that I prefer PC-style FPS and was a TOTAL hermit before Halo CE was released.

I played CS non-stop and was in love with Doom and Quake and Half-Life and Tribes.

Until Halo CE came out. It completely changed my outlook on FPS. I think it is a joke for hermits nowadays to find Halo CE just an average FPS and HL1 to be kick the snot out of Halo CE. And then fail to make an argument.

Halo wasnt even close to the first FPS with vehiclas....

half Life...on the other hand changed the way All FPS would be played in the future...it was the first FPS ever to put scripted sequences in-game rather then into cutscenes.

BTW..Halo wasnt the first FPS with rechargable shields either...

It wasn't just having vehicles, it was how they were placed and used in a MUCH MORE sandbox fashion (sorry Tribes integrates them totally different)

And you ignored the rest. The fact is that Halo CE was a revolutionary FPS. Once again, I know HL1 was, I just found Halo CE moreso. There is no denying how influential Halo CE was on all FPS's that followed.

how exacly did Halo implement Vehicals differently then any other game?

and their isnt a single new feature in Halo, that is in every FPS made today...unlike Half Life with its scripted sequences....

If you think PC shooters have one click grenades, and rechargable shields you are horribly mistaken....turns out that schme was only good for Console Fps's....

Meh, I don't really play much MP FPS unless I'm at a LAN party. So CS has very very little appeal to me, and I attribute it fame to it's rabid fasbase, much like I do for Starcraft. Halo has more than MP going for it so I would tend to lean on it if I had to choose. And for MP at LAN parties we typically play some iteration Quake in terms of FPS.

rofl, the Halo campaign was very generic, the outdoor maps were all corridors, with little exception, no real interesting events or scripted sequences throught the entire game.

A complete tribes & UT99 clone.

How about instead of laughing you counter his statement.-Sora

Halo never wins FPSOTY ... there you go, arguement over.

i usually play CS:S for at least 2 hours each night. I don't understand why Hermits say PC FPS>>Console FPS. I have played both and I don't agree. Game superiority for me is on a case by case basis, not a generalization.

I don't get all the Halo hate, I could see why someone could consider the best they've played, even if they've played many FPS (console or PC).

I personally don't think it's the best, I enjoyed the thoughtfulness of HL a little bit more, but Halo was a fun run and gun title, and I really enjoy the plot. I mean it's not by luck that Halo titles break sales records and sell millions upion millions of copies. I know sales to equate quality, but add in good/great industry reviews and you should at least understand why people might think of it the way they do.

i usually play CS:S for at least 2 hours each night. I don't understand why Hermits say PC FPS>>Console FPS. I have played both and I don't agree. Game superiority for me is on a case by case basis, not a generalization.TheBigDrat

This thread isnt about PC FPS vs Console FPS.... just CS/HL vs Halo.

I agree, I don't understand how an "FPS fan" could not enjoy what both system forms have to offer. :?

Yeah, CS has a superior MP experience and HL has a superior SP experience.smokeydabear076

Personally I prefer Halo's MP. I've hated Counterstrike with a passion since it came out.

To everyone saying "teh halo si teh UT and Triibs cloen!!!1!!!one!!!". Please, play Halo long enough to actually understand the mechanics at work. Put it in 2001 (anyone playing the PC version, just get out. A three year old port should not be the point of comparison). Halo fundamentally changed the actual gameplay in First Person Shooters beyond most games out there. The "golden triad" of Halo combat was completely revolutionary, along with the AI and health system. If you have only played it for a short while on a friend's house, you are not capable of understanding this.

Halo's mechanics are still emulated to this day by shooters as diverse as Gears, Call of Duty 2 & 3, Rainbow six, Resistance (a game that did evolve the health system a bit more) and others.

Although halo had very few specific points in where it was completely innovative, the whole of it was nearly perfectly executed.

I agree, this year in College we have had Halo 1 16 player LAN (On minimal settings, on mac machines) (Intergrated gfx im guessing).

Playing Lan with them is the ONLY time ive enjoyed playing Halo ever, playing it against randoms online is boring compared to most other fps like Battlefield/UT/CS:S imo.

|May I ask though, if the health system in halo was "Revolutioanary" then why on earth have I not seen another FPS that uses it?

Crysis takes 2 things that Halo "created"

Left Arm grenade throwing (fast) in a similar way to Halo.

Health/Shield regen (Regeneration mode on Nano-suit heals your health slowly - lowers energy.

Energy while in armour mode is basically like Halo's shield...

But other than Crysis, no other FPS has used Halo's Health system ....
