Halo Lovers.. explain to me why halo is any better than...

you are saying that w/o playing the pc version? seriously... if Xbox guys spent a day with a good gaming rig and internet connection i seriously doubt they would even want to look at their xbox anymore.
 
i think the thing about a console system is that it's relatively fair too, meaning everybody has the same console/specs/etc. also the pick up and go mentality is there with consoles no so much for the average person with a PC.
 
Timesplitters 2 much? Much more insane and fast paced game.

Whoever said that halo offered a nice simple package for people is correct. That's the only reason it's so damn big. All the jocks etc (to generalize) who aren't "into" gaming can easily run halo and it's not hard to master. As a result they think it's the best ever. And then it procedes to spread.

And I don't know wtf they did w/ Halo 2 but the second I picked that thing up I knew something was unholy.
 
I think HL1 was better. It might not of had the fancy physics engine, or all the graphical effects. I think the combat was better done, the puzzles were better done, multiplayer is awesome. Maybe not by much, but still a hair better IMO.
 
this is more of an xbox vs. PC argument

you would have to compare halo on an xbox to one pc title on a pc

obviously there are more quality FPS on the pc than on consoles, but FPS on consoles have only gotten popular in the last few years and Halo is the most popular title

Halo isnt the best game ever, but you would be hard pressed to find a better console FPS. The great thing about halo is that its for a console and anyone can grab a controller and play, or sign on xbox live and play alongside friends without much hassle.
 
Halo 2 and Halo 1 are just great games. They're well made games up there with Half-Life 2. It's a very simple game but it's just so well polished it's accesible to anyone, yes even those elusive girls that spend so much time around you.
 
What do you guys think about Halo vs Halo 2?

I don't know but for me H2 just didn't "feel" right anymore. They fucked with the guns and while it's still good it's just not as good as Halo 1 in my opinion. Also some of the new covenant guns are just plain retarded.
 
in regards to halo1 vs halo2...my main gripe is that they SHOULD have carried over most of halo1's maps as i like them much better than 2's...
 
because the game engine in halo, combined with the ease of playing with friends in xbox live,or lan partys, with the madness of a 16 player game on a map like lockout, and finnaly with the feel of a controler in your hands ther is nothing better.
