Yes, this is your quintessential Halo thread. I'm not into first-person shooters normally but I really like Halo.

My GF plays Halo and she loves it.

I don't mind it, not my type of game though for the most part. I think it was overrated, but still quite good.

Since Shooters in General are somewhat like the Wasteland of Game Design I don't like em all. But Halo wasn't living just from the hype 'round it, and that's a good point. So compared to other games like WoW, which isn't a shooter but still gamedesign at it's worst, it stands for itself not just for the good work of the marketing company.

I agree, Halo is a pretty decent game, but it was nothing when compared to Counter-Strike, Doom, Quake or Serious Sam. XD

I could never get into Doom. I just didn't see what the big deal was.

Oh yes, it feels beautiful, it sounds beautiful, it works beautiful and it kills beautifully.

I'm glad Serious Sam had a chainsaw too.

yeah but they weren't half as good as those from the good'ol Doom II days ^^.

GTA had a cahinsaw, but I would never use it, prefering the gatling gun or flamethrower.

My friend decided to fly a commercial jet into a streetcorner and parachute out in the nick of time.

brutal game that. XD

that's the only problem with Halo, not enough gore.
