I was just browsing through the online retailer where i buy games from and noticed they have for sale a 'Legendary Eidtion of Halo 3' which includes (among other things) a replica Halo 3 helmet (ftw?). People are going nuts over this game... I've played Halo and Halo 2 and as a PC gamer (maybe i'm missing something) i just don't get it.
Sure, Halo was fun, me and a mate finished the singleplayer co-op in a single sitting - good times. And multiplayer was also fun but - it never really amounted to much. The singleplayer levels were deritave and repitative, the weapons seemed really unimaginative, the background story was about as generic sci-fi as they come (I mean, Master Chief - come on...). Multplayer was the same thing over and over again. I started to play Halo 2 and watched another person play it for a while and it seemed to be exactly the same sort of thing as Halo - by then I started to get bored.
Thinking about console FPS's Goldeneye was head and shoulders above Halo. On the PC... don't even get me started. So back to my point, I just don't get it, what is so great about Halo that makes people go crazy about it?

I couldnt agree more! I am both Pc and Console gamer and even played Halo and halo 2 when they first came out on xbox! All my friends were like "WoW!" but i was like "Bullshhit! whats so special about this game?".
Someone wrote that the story is original and that halo is all about story. Are you kidding me ?? Whats original about the story i cant even count the games and movies with the same generic , cliche sci-fi crap!
