1) Lifting a car and jumping require two different muscles and thus two different kinds of strength. Your comparison is invalid. Now whether or not he can lift a car I question. But still, you pointed out the floating as well, and despite his strength the height is still a bit unrealistic. That and you didnt dispute my gun comments.

2) If there is never a fact of something being the best, THEN ITS A FACT THAT ITS NOT THE BEST. Wow, turn around logic.

3) Which they dont. Microsoft loses billions in their gaming department. This isnt just due to the loss of on every piece of hardware, that would have to include lacking game sales. And even if it didnt, that is still a lot of money lost on consoles, far more than any other console developer, I guarantee.

4) Gundam resembles nearly every anime ever created. But Im not saying it is a mere resemblance, Im saying its very much alike. With the floating colony and it destroying the world and such. And sure, things rarely come that are original, but there are varying levels of originality, and Halo lacks in such.

5) When I spoke of goals in goldeneye I was speaking of the progressing gun power. You take my words out of context. A needler is immensely powerful given a few moments, and the fact that the needles home in on its victims. A sniper is always good for long range, but so is a needler, and a pistol, and a plasma rifle, and most anything you could think of in that game. I could take out an Elite from long range with an Assault Rifle fairly well.

6) At least Goldeneye had a resonably good plot. I mean, it was based on the greatest spy movie franchise ever.

7) The Matrix was a blatant rip off of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

1) Of course they require different muscles, I'm attempting to make a point that his strength is more than enough to jump. He's not going to have a huge muscular upperbody with no muscles in his legs because then he wouldn't be able to walk at all. The guns aren't balanced in Halo, ask any experianced player and they'll tell you that the Needler was weak, period. Yes it's cool that it can follow people but it doesn't do anything as a gun. I'll address your latter points here as well, why should you be able to take out an elite with an assult rifle? It's still a gun. Pistols are good at medium range, you can't snipe anyone from accross the map with a pistol, plasma rifles are just basically assult rifles, nothing special there at all. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, if you're playing against good people you'll know when to use each gun. You aren't going to try and snipe someone with an assult rifle and you'll find that even if you do hit it does like nothing. As in real life, weapons do less damage over longer ranges.

2) Yea, got me there, I was setting myself up for that. I took it in a different context as in there is a game that is the best and Halo isn't it.

3) It doesn't matter that Microsoft loses some money. As I have repeatedly said, they are attempting to take a bite out of the market. You can't expect them to take the entire market on their first try. It is actually surprising that they are doing this well. Most first attempts into already set markets fail, microsoft got lucky and they know this. They can take the loses because this is a long term deal.

7. How the Hell are you getting that the matrix is blatantly ripped from snow white? Unless you're talking about the prince kissing snow white and her coming back to life. I'd like to know that. But Matrix is actual derived from texts by the ancients and some random anime and manga. I forgot the name of the work, but it was about how you would know if something was real or not if you had never experianced it, like if there were people who were chained to a cave wall, and all they saw were shadow animals and stuff, what would happen when they went out of that cave and what not. Very matrix-ish.
