Id say Halo, the first one was very nice but after that they just improved the graphics and added a few guns in the sequels. Just about every element of the story can be seen in games made earlier (For instance the flood which are basically a combination of the Zerg from Starcraft and the headcrabs from Halflife) anyways..DISCUSS!
Easily GTA. You've played one you've played them all.Trickshot771
I'll agree on that one. GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas were all pretty much the same. I mean there were some differences, but it's mostly the same but with a change of scenery from one game to another.
I used to enjoy GTA when I was young and used cheat codes. The games themselves are so unnecessarily clunky and difficult that they're difficult to enjoy. I think GTA (from 3 to San Andreas) is a highly overrated series. I think GTAIV is going to be really good, though.
I know CoD isn't strictly an xbox series, but I think they deserve honorable mention for (to me) being competely un-noteworthy. What is so great about these games anyway?
I Mean its obviously the Halo series, all it did was revolutionize FPS controls on a console in Halo 1 and Halo 2 just reinvented the way we play multiplayer on a console. And Halo 3 just introduced save/share films and Forge. YUP YOUR RETARDED!!bllrby6
"Halo" and "Revolutionize" shouldn't be within a miles radius of each other. Same for "Innovative".

Only it didn't truely revolutionize or reinvent anything. It's a fun game. I play it with friends on occasion. But you just proved right their that its "OVERRATED". Fan boys wet themselves at the thought of playing it and ignore the flaws. It's a solid and fun game but way overrated
Why the deuce must you start a flame war? and halo isn't overrated, it had original concepts and is not a run of the mill FPS.
Halo: CE- Reboundable shields, vehicle based combat, 1st person to 3rd person view combat, terrific story.the only FPS to have a engrossing story was Half-life.
Halo 2- Jacking vehicles, Dual-wielding.
And did you know after Halo everyone started copying it's concepts. Yep including Cod4.

Dual weilding is groundbreaking? Been done before. Go on...What did CoD4 take from Halo?

Vehicle based missions, rechargable health, Matchmaking. Perfect Dark had dual-wileding right, can't seem to remember.

Have you ever even played Halo because it is pretty obvious what most shooters took from Halo and applied them to their game. Ever thought of regenerated health and matchmaking....?
I agree that Halo brought a lot of new ideas and COD took from it, but then again every game did. Halo 2 was the first game to have matchmaking and without it being applied to other games, I don't think most of us would want to go back to lobbys and long wait times.
Mario isn't an X Box series, but I agree that they have overdone it with "Mario Sluggers", "Mario DDR Remix" (I'm not kidding, it's a real game) , "Mario Basketball", "Mini Mario", "Mario Strikers", "Mario Tennis", "Mario Golf", all the Super Mario games, Paper Mario, DS Mario games and so many more. Nintendo has done WAY too much with Mario. Anyways, this topic is stupid outright that it is just going to be filled with a bunch of Halo haters or Halo fanboys that hate COD4. You may not have meant it when u created this topic, but doing so will leave you with tons of replies about how "Halo isn't innovative", or "COD4 stole everything from Halo." It doesn't really matter who did it first if everyone does it right.
how can you say halo? 3 does suck but 1 and 2 were amazing. i dont have one series that is overated. if we were talking all systems it would be super smash bros. i dont get what all the fuss is about.
Halo is not Overrated, just because you suck at it, doesnt mean you can pound on the serie. I Suck bad! and I still enjoy Custom games with my friends! halo is a great serie, not the best but it be there soon.
And the fuss with COD4, I find it more repetitive than Halo 3, the new thing they added was "prestige mode"
I dont think you can say that the Halo SERIES is overrated. Seeing as everyone seems to hate Halo 3. But Halo 1 and 2 (to a lesser extent) revolutionised console based FPS, and anyone who denies that is just a pathetic fanboy. And you can't compare it to half-life here, cos thats a PC series.
