halo games always had the greatest skill range
a level 50 couldnt be killed by a real level 10 ever. thats why they started pro tuarnaments which ended up being on cable.
halo started pro gamers. mw2 would be another clancy game if it wasnt for halo 2.

Once we get to Hollywood and find those Miramax fucks who are making that movie, we're gonna make 'em eat our shit, then shit out our shit, then eat their shit which is made up of our shit that we made 'em eat. Then you're all you motherfucks are next. Love, Jay and Silent Bob."

You can't be serious. There have been professional gaming cultures long before Halo. I agree that the Halo franchise had a lot to do with getting casual gamers much more involved, but it is far from getting pro-gaming started.
Shit, even fucking arcade gamers had and still do have tournaments.

I would go as far to say the "pro gaming" in the case of halo is almost completely a joke- the game is reliant on a form of auto-aim-assist hard-coded into it to make analog stick competition possible.
Can't wait for CAl and CPL to get running again. THey had like 20,000 active members when it dissolved with the sale of the company, and supposedly the whole thing is gonna get moving again in the coming years.

i dunno if youre trying to say i suck, but im not too bad at it. i just lose interest in it fast. maybe 30 minutes was exaggerated, but i cant play for more than an hour. after that, i start playing on the computer and not paying attention

well, it was my way of saying that the game is probably fun FEEELINGGG and then drops because of the content and the over blown story and the lack of any new concepts... just... the controls remain the same good flow of halo.
and it was my way of actually... saying that you are awesome... for not wanting to play that half-assed production for more then thirty minutes without legitimately getting bored.

oh...in that case, thank you very much. halo 3 i could play for hours on end and never get bored. reach gives me an hour at the very most. hell...to get the 50 firefight games in a week challenge, i just left the console on overnight with me in matchmaking. had it done in one night.
as far as the story, i thought it was pretty bland. i mean, i know its supposed to be emotional when the characters die, but i couldnt get into it. i knew them for an hour. its not something where you have been stuck with them since early on, and then all of a sudden they get chopped. just seemed kinda forced and i saw it coming.
maybe the next halo will be better? im sure they will make another. try and milk the series for all it is worth

you posted that at 11:11
which brings me on to the topic of 2012 and why the game is called halo and yada yada.
they will make another halo if they want more symbols in front of our face.

Hmm.. don't you guys have any imagination? Sure, Halo is a simple FPS, but most FPSs and TPSs are pretty damn simple. If you're looking for a game that requires strategy, play a strategy game.
With FPS, I like to imagine that I'm actually in the game, and even create alternate scenarios for the missions (yes, I'm usually stoned when I do this). What I'm saying is that I approach the game as if it's real, and play accordingly. It's like an augmentation to regular daydreaming for me.
Halo has always been great for this purpose.
I understand everyone's point, though. I can't play simple games for very long if I'm not in the mood.
But despite what I've said, Halo: Reach is packed with content, at least for a 360 game. With the campaign, firefight, armor unlocks, forge, game mechanic customization, and multiplayer, it makes for quite the package.

the story was cool, but the characters are indeed worthless.
there has NEVER been any character development in the stories.
what did you expect?
anyway, i played it online for a minute, but...
since i only played a handful of games and whooped ass(besides the story). i'm trading halo-reach in... along with dead rising.. another shite game. killing zombies is fun, but being forced into a mediocre story is not.
