Ok Thunderevermore, we got some issues to cover.
First of all, Goldeneye and Perfect Dark we're good and all, but they're kinda out dated. How many kids do you hear still talkin about havin theyre buds over to play a good ol game of Goldeneye? Haven't heard it in years.
You also quoted a while ago that Perfect Dark enhanced what Goldeneye had done. Has Halo not enhanced wat Perfect Dark left behind?
Now lets get to Halo.
The game is balanced, dont kid yourself. You say a shotgun is just as good as a rocket launcher? Have you even played the game??? Surely, you would know then, that a shotgun is only good for around the corner attacks, and does nothing long range. A rocket launcher is greater medium range, but will get ya killed in short range. They balance out dude.
The vehicles also serve a good purpose. They ghost is a nice 1 seater, but the warthog is fun with a party of 3. The banshee adds some more fun, and the tanks are lots off fun if u can find a friend who can master one. The vehicles also add madness to the multiplayer catpure the flag matches.
If you do not think halo 2 is balanced enough, still, then check out the new updates that were just released on Xbox Live.
You also said that Halo did NOT revolutionize gaming. I beg to differ to some extent. What Halo did do was that it brought the greatness of online FPS to gamers across the world, which had only been avaliable previously on PCs. Sure others tryied to mimic, like Unreal and Ghost Recon, but none delivered the same thrills (my opinion). Unreal was too fast, and Ghost Recon was too slow/stealthy. Not my cups of tea. Halo mixes fast action, with strategic warfare. (gates, teleporters, etc.) Not to mention plenty of game types and modes.
Now how can u sit here and tell us all you found Halo 1 and 2's stories boring? They were compeling and had major twists and plot points. Was it not a fun shock to face the flood for the first time? To discover Halo was actually a storage to hold the flood, not a weapon, or holy artifact? Was it not a feeling of dominance when you first swong the energy sword in Halo 2? Sure the story in halo 2 was a little disappointing, but it acts just like a great second book, or movie, in a series. Halo 3 will be wat sells Xbox 2.
As for the Microsoft loosing money issue, who gives a shit! As a consumer, it doesn't matter! As long as Microsoft never scraps the xbox, who cares if they loose money!
To sum everything up, Halo 2 is the best, current FPS to date(on consoles anyway). Who else will challenge? Killzone = What a joke! It was just made to "defeat" halo, but failed. Geist = looks to be good, but with no online, it can't even compete in the same pool as Halo. You may argue, but when it comes down to it, the multiplayer is what gives a game replay value and splitscreen is kinda gettin old.
To all the Halo representatives in this blog room, yall are pathetic! Get your facts straight! You let, wat appears to be, a Nintedo Fanboy overrun yall, and contol the board. Pathetic. I see enough off em on other gaming websites.
If you think your a big enough hotshot, thunderevermore, then why don't you go to a real gaming website, like 1up.com, and try to defend your point in a Halo 2 club wit at least 100 members. If you think your not a Nintendo fanboy, then take that retarded DS logo off the bottom of ur posts. If you want to look cool, and play the most bad-ass systme in the car or whenever, you get a PSP. But lets argue over that another day.
Last but not least, learn how to show your sources right. Google is not a source. It's a search engine. This makes you sound like a 5th grader. For someone who likes to pick on others for minor mistkes ("It's not FPS Shooter, its FPS. Thats like double quote=ing." or watever) you seem to make several mistakes of you own.
A true source would be like: I retrieved my info from gamespot.com, under the article, "PSP sells 600,000 units in first week".
By the way, it's an "S" controller, not a "Y" controller. Get your facts right before you diss somethin. And wats wrong with fixin somethin thats broke like the bulky original controller?
