A winner in the X-box, and a strong competitor in the PC platform.

The pc has seen a lot of good FPS games before Halo, like Half-life and Unreal series, but Halo is considered a gem even in the PC gaming context. A rarely good sci-fi story complimented with good gameplay pacing and complex physics allows Halo to gain a strong reputation in the gaming world.

Personally, I enjoyed Halo for its depth of play, including opportunities for flanking and stealth, as well as the fore-mentioned real-world physics (vehicles too) which is an eye-opener. Also, I like the fact that you can't carry a lot of weapons in this game and there are lots of gear for you to choose from, including conventional military types and alien guns, forcing you to make strategic choices or conserve ammo to heighten the excitement.

One thing I really get a kick out of it is the ability to sneak up on those dwarfy little aliens and give knock-out kills, which is really satisfying and fun in a way. Anyone who's an FPS lover, don't leave this one out!
