Why would anyone play Halo?

[tloz998]

Halo is popular because its easy...like really really easy. also because some believe the graphics are good. 1st thing: the graphics only matter if they're so bad that when aiming directly into the body and you shoot and miss...then theres a problem. CS:Source is better if you compare. Of course this is all oppinion based, but some things people have said in here like better weapons or something likke that is dumb because halo only has generics of weapons and not like different versions of smgs or rifles. The halo game got better with Halo2 because of changes in the physics and easier control. You can differenciate a good FPS from a bad FPS by simplicity of the game and the variety of weapons that not are only different because of the weapons but on how each weapon is better than the other in certain situations. Also as a side note anyone who attempts to snipe with a shotgun is a retard....and i've seen it all too often in halo. Ganted halo is fun, but its way too easy to noob with just about anything. You need a game where the weapons dont just overpower without any form of consiquence. CS is the perfect example of how it is done, with heavier weapons it changes how the character moves. More games should be like that. Ok im done ranting...end result is halo was slightly over-hyped. end of story. dont play it if your looking for something with challenge involved

and about 2 minutes after i realized that when you compare halo to cs it doesnt really work because both games have extreme weakpoints. Halo is too generic and noobed, while CS is repetitive as hell. I've played FPS games ranging from Doom to Battlefield (if you want to consider that FPS) to Red faction 1+2 to CS to Halo. basic conclusion is to stay away from console fps when you can. I dont mena just totally stay away because some can be good and we havent gotten very far yet. PCs are better becaues of the mouse...im sure most people would perfer a mouse and keyboard next to a Xbox controller if you were in a war. Someone should start a poll...lol
