[QUOTE="DeathScape666"]If Halo was hyped more than sex, then it failed tremendously. I've only experienced the single player of it, and I still have to say it is loads better than anything Halo has ever offered. Plus, it has great replay value, and I frequently come back to it. user_nat
Took me a few reads to understand what you were saying.. now that I do: lol

Oh wow, count me in on that. Pfft, right over my head :lol:

On subject. The series is solid but I wouldnt give an arm and a leg for it. I will say if there is one thing I can give credit to bungie for, its the artstyle and general layout of the games levels and scenery. That and good "jump in" fun. Thats where the credit stops for me.

If Halo was hyped more than sex, then it failed tremendously. I've only experienced the single player of it, and I still have to say it is loads better than anything Halo has ever offered. Plus, it has great replay value, and I frequently come back to it. Anyway, I think Halo gets a lot of hate and a lot of love.DeathScape666
Weren't you the guy who rated Red Steel a 7.5 and was defending it. That explains a lot.

LMAO. It got 9.7 @ GS and is considered one of the greatest games ever by critics. Also, when GameSPot's memebers last were having a vote about the best games ever, HALO CE scored 2 behind OoT. 9.7 >>>>>>>>>> 6. Halo is the Greatest FPS console EVER. 8)

With little competition, HALO CE was good when it released.
Sadly(not really)HALO2 and 3 are crap thanks to competition. They better do something new and exciting with Reach.
ODST is just milking with the beta and all...

No, they're just expanding the Halo mythos in interactive gaming form.

I'm sorry, I must have misread, did your thread actually say that Super Mario for the Super Nintendo was a (basically) terrible game? To hell with you, and to hell with this topic. Videogames are supposed to be fun, and that is one hell of a fun game, one of the funnest in my memory to be exact. Are you honestly bi***ing about a poor story?

And Halo, a simply great game. I didn't know people didn't like Halo: Combat Evolved, the other two, sure, but Halo 1, no. I love that game, I don't think it is overrated at all.

So yes, you have an opinion, it's just a wrong opinion; in my opinion, of course.

"I'm pretty sure most gamers couldn't care less if a game's story is embarrassingly stupid as long as it's fun to play. A bad story does not single-handedly ruin a game. Bioshock is a good example of this."

wait, wtf - you DIDN'T like bioshock's story?

jpKNOCKOUT
Wow Bioshock has an amazing story, a better example would be Red Faction: Guerrilla.

Crap. I dunno about the rest of you guys, but watching that Greg K. review of Halo (then following the related videos to the original GS Halo video review) brings back so many memories... and just makes me wanna play it again even more. Huh... is this actually a time period, where Halo was praised for its CAMPAIGN and STORY? No way!

>_>

I assume the publicity of Halos 2 and 3 gave people the wrong ideas so gamers nowadays don't even bother with the first game, in my eyes, a solid classic. Fielder doesn't say it's the best FPS, but fans of Goldeneye and Half Life can find something they like in Halo.

Why is everyone so negative about Halo 1, 2 & 3's story? :( Am I the only one that really enjoyed all of them?

Halo CE sure as hell is not underrated. Even nowadays. From a PC cross console perspective. And yes I was hyped for the game long before its release and development shifts.

All I got out of this was "Halo is better than sex!". It is by far not underrated in any way possible. Since Halo = Wolfenstein does that mean it's old to PC standards? "Sticky-aim" I'm pretty sure it's called auto aim. It's on every console FPS.

 [color=#244896]One of the most notoriously bad games ever released. This game is especially infamous for not having a deep storyline.[/color]
How do you think Halo is generally perceived (now, not at the time of release), and how much praise do you think it deserves?

WHAT! Put Halo on the back burner for a minute, people thought that THIS game was bad? That is one of the funnest games of ALL time. I remember running home from school to play this. I wanna punch someone in the face.
