well, are any outdated games "good" compared to their genres today? When I play old racing games or older sports game, etc...they have lost their appeal, and they lose their entertainment value considerably.

To me it's just OK. I never thought the original Halo was good. The single player which is just as fun today suffers from repetitiveness that would suck in any game. Multiplayer was fine too but by Halo 2 it seemed outdated to the point that nobody would play it if Halo 2 was around.

It was never a good game. Neither was halo2 or halo3. It was a generic shooter, even bungie said this in an interview, which had good timing when it was released.

I don't think you worded that right- considering it a good or bad game isn't something you ask others. The question should have been worded-Is it still a good game in your opinion?
But personally, I think it's pretty fun.

if halo 2, and halo 3, are considered good games, then why would halo 1 be any different? they're all basically the same game with different levels anda new gun or two thrown in to make it exciting. that being said i love all the halo games and are definitely some of my favs :)

Amazing how generic games with no marketing (Halo 1) become the killer app of a new system. I wish halo was generic, that would mean that their are a lot of other shooters worth playing! 2 sucked compared to 1, 3 is better then 2, if only marginally.

yes halo 1 still rocks my socks to this day. If it were on xbl, id play it for hours a day. Id play it on pc, but it just doesnt feel like halo.

Lol just because there are 5 options for polls doesn't mean you have to use them :D lol

Anyways I think that if the game could be downloaded with online multiplayer, it would be.

The story still holds up but the graphics are dated. Playing the Library level on legendary still sends a shiver down my spine.... not many games can do that these days.... maybe COD4 on veteran but not many others.

People always are compelled to fill up all 5 poll spots, for whatever reason. For your poll, the first two choices would have been fine. The last two completley throw off the poll, and the 3rd one is questionable. I'm sorry, but I hate when perfectly good polls are ruined because of this nonsense.

Depends on how you see things really......

If u mean to compare them with todays standards, then CoD4 (and many other recent titles) is much better than Halo. But this isnt a fair comparison. U are comparing a 6 year-old game with a brand new game based on next-gen tech.

For me, its all about the impact each game had on me when it was actually released. I mean, before i played Halo, fps' were like chinise water torture for me, i hated the gerne. Halo was the first shooter that i really liked, i actually went and bought an xbox because of it. Amazing story, great characters, battling alongside npc teammates, using different vehicles....

Halo wasnt justan awesome game, it took the gerne into a new direction and set new standards.

CoD4 is a beautiful game, with amazing graphics and very enjoyable gameplay, but thats about it. When a new one comes along with better visuals, most of us will probably forget about it.

But u will always remember Halo......

Now u decide which is better

The game is still good if you compare it to other games that came out around the same time. Just don't compare it to COD4 and other next gen games.
