It was the game that saved console gaming.

What?

How do you figure?

halo is the best fps shooter.. hands down.. no other game had as much hype on a console (well any first person shooter at least). halo saved xbox, and the console industry itself. after halo came out... fans went crazy for more first person shooter... hoping that a better game would come out to fulfil thier gaming needs... but no other fps shooter can match halo.. its just.. impossible..

First, its FPS, not FPS shooter, thats redundant.

Second, its not the best shooter. Yes, it was the most hyped Xbox game, but thats all it was, hype.

It didnt save Xbox. Xbox is losing billions of dollars for Microsoft.

Halo is not a marker of two eras in gaming, fans were just as hardcore as they were before, theres just alot more nubs talking about how Halo is the best game ever.

No other FPS? Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, those are the best FPSes from console gaming..ever. Now those, THOSE marked eras. Goldeneye brought FPSes to console gaming. Perfect Dark enhanced the incredible qualities of GE gaming while putting a bit more, and some better stuff into it.

Halo didnt 'save' console gaming, console gaming wasnt in danger.

Greatness:
- Just like how Half-Life revolutionized PC gaming, that's what Halo did for console FPS.
- Graphics were awesome
- The human and alien weapons were balanced, (excluding the Needler) and each had its nifty secondary weapons.
- The vehicles you could control were just so amazing.
- Co-op ability
- Legendary mode
- Multiplayer games make my parties more fun.
- Crushing people with a warthog.
- 4 Xboxes + 4 TVs + 16 controllers + 16 players = FunFunFun

1) How did Halo revolutionize anything?
2) Graphics were good, but they were on an XBox, which has great graphics overall anyway.
3) Yeah, because its real easy to see how having a Rocket Launcher is just as good as having a Shotgun. Ok.
4) Vehicles werent great. I liked the Ghost, and thats about it.
5) Co Op isnt exactly a new thing.
6) Legendary=Very Hard, right? Alot of games have that.
7)16 player games, meh, not my bag. Nothing compares to 4 player Goldeneye.

What's so great about halo?

My thoughts exactly.
