Halo isn't the greatest game ever, but the fact that it had a good story and widened multiplayer on Xbox live with the original xbox and then kept expanding it through it's interations has made it so good. I think the game has always been smooth and fun to play though it can get repetitive but I wouldn't go so far as to call it overrated.

GOW is very overrated as well and I don't care if people flame me over that. I was looking at my profile on xbox.com and it said I haven't played GOW since 11/17/06.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Personally, I have played many more games of Halo 3 Beta than I ever have of GOW multiplayer. GOW is a fantastic game, but Halo 3 multiplayer appeals to me more. The like the freedom to use vehicles or fight in larger environments, but that's just me.

dude, gow sucks. its glitchy, laggy, short, and lacks weapons and maps. you should open your eyes to the awesomeness of halo. if you find it boring, then you must be mad just cause you suck at it lololol. i guess you are too noob to play it cause gow takes no skill its only about connection and host.

When it first came out it was big because it had a bunch of ideas and new things you hav never seen in shooters and in games. Like no bosses smart enemies that converse during battles. Two guns to give things a more tactical feel and weapons that all have strenghts and weaknesses.

From what I've played of Halo 1 & 2, they're in no way the best FPSs ever. I found them pretty average - I thought that the levels and weapons were OK but quite uninspiring, and that the aliens were bland and uninteresting. As for the Halo 3 Beta... I found it rather boring as an XBL game. The best comparison that comes to mind is that it's basically a futuristic BF 2: Modern Combat (a very dated XBL game in my opinion), but not even as fun as that. To be fair, I haven't played much of Halo but from what I have, I didn't think it was particularly amazing or exciting, and I don't just mean in comparison with current-gen games, but with last-gen games in mind too. I couldnt care less whether I get "flamed" by the "fan-boys" but that's my honest opinion.

What is a better shooter to you that you have played? I really liked gears however it was very linear and i like the faster pace,better deeper story and more open ended levels of halo 3.

I've only played Halo 2 but I myself am apparently one of the rare few that just can't get into it. As to what you originally said, I agree, I also think Halo 3 is way over-rated.

The word "overrated" is overrated.

All these threads do is cause pointless arguing. Some people like Halo, some people don't . No game is overrated, people only say that if they don't like the game themselves. So the real title of this thread is I don't like Halo.

dude, gow sucks. its glitchy, laggy, short, and lacks weapons and maps. you should open your eyes to the awesomeness of halo. if you find it boring, then you must be mad just cause you suck at it lololol. i guess you are too noob to play it cause gow takes no skill its only about connection and host.Rebel108

how can you say that gears of war takes no skill...the sniper rifle in gears of war takes much more skill than the one in halo. when you fire while you are moving the bullets veer away from your target. you also only get one shot before you have to reload (granted there is active reload but not everyone uses it). there are much more things to take into account when aiming the sniper rifle in gears of war than halo. therefore gears of war sniper takes more skill than halo.

LOL, so the whole game revolves around the sniper rifle?

I think it's also overrated. But just because it's overrated doesn't mean I don't like it, I actually do. I just don't see why so many people say that it's the greatest game ever, and that sort of stuff.

I've read what people have said about the beta for Halo 3 and it's been said that it feels almost identical to Halo 2, which means gameplay wise, nothings changed between 2 and 3(other than more weapons, etc.), which makes me think Halo 3 isn't going to be anything amazing and revolutionary. Plus every single person that I've seen talk about this game acts like it's going to be the game to end all games.

Best gamer alive u have your opinion and i respect that. GEOW was a really overatted game, not saying i don't like it but recently online has been laggy, host quit and a plethora of problems. the story is short and not that great IMO. I would rather play Halo 2 morethan gEOW. Halo has a richer story and better online play. Halo is great gears is good.

Gears was a rushed piece of trash that should be ashamed to be on shelves in it's glitchy condition. Halo is a masterpiece, and a stand out in gaming.

yeah these threads are pretty stupid. everyone has their own opinion, and just bc u dont like a game doesnt mean its over rated. but i think there are alot more people that like halo then dont like it. i mean the countless numbers of pre-orders for halo 3 are evidence of that. but yeah everyone has their own opinion, but im sick of seeing people making a whole thread just to say they dont like halo. nobody cares if u like it or not.

I never claimed that Halo is the greatest game ever but it has a very interesting story that keeps you hooked plus innovated online and offline multiplayer. The game by far is not overrated! Emo Kid.

How can it be over rated if millions of people play it on a daily bases? That's far from over rated. I like Halo, but it's not the greatest game out there.

I agree. I'm going to get H3 as soon as I can but I'm not going to pay $100 for the legendary pack that comes with useless junk. They have 3 different versions of the same game for all different prices. That seems kind of retarded to me

When I first heard of Halo I thought it was whack. My friend bought it, I played it and I fell in love with it. I love the series and can't wait to play Halo 3.

Halo 3 is like Mario for Nintendo and Snake for PS3(maybe not for long)or any other playstation icon. Halo has always been a good game for anyone who likes shooters and even if they didnt like shooters. But you cant say Halo 3 will be a bad game. Thats just stupid.

....Halo is overrated...and Gears Of War isn't? GOW is the most overrated game of last year. The deathmatches are extremely boring. The only thing that saves this otherwise (6 out of 10) game is an entertaining single player and FANTASTIC CO-OP experience.

it might not be as good looking back on it, but it still was (and is) a phenomenal expericence ehen it was released and defined a generation of video games. Most of today's shooters would not exist w/out the success of Halo, so give it some cred.

...and Goldeneye on the N64 had nothing to do with it? Halo defined the Xbox, it didn't define anything in the genre...not that I can see anyway.

well now adays going back to halo it is pretty repetitive and boring but back in the day it was freakin awesome, and the multiplayer was off the hook especially if you had friends to play with, and halo 2 took the repetitive levels out of it and added online mutliplayer which was awesome but would have been better if it was more like the original halo's multiplayer, but just wait for Halo 3 and we will see if it still has these problems, Im guessing it wont.
