I have never been a big fan of Halo despite being a massive xbox fan from the very beginning. The problem with Halo is it is really nothing special. It is beaten by many other fps games from every perspective. As a shooter, the gunplay is no where as solid as say Doom or Wolfenstein The New Order. The storyline is borderline stupid and makes no sense whatsoever. As for the characters they are all 2D, no personality whatsoever. I don't know why Cortana is such a beloved character and please don't get me started on the chief... As a sci-fi game, the universe is nowhere as beautiful as say Mass Effect, Deux Ex. As for the multiplayer, its basically COD except with vehicles and more bulky characters that take longer to kill. In terms of graphics, it has got to be a strong contender for borderline. I've seen PS3 games which look better than Halo 5, this is completely unacceptable... The question is:
The gameplay sucks
The Storyline sucks
The characters suck
The graphics suck
But why is it one of the most popular franchises?
