Halo : Combat Evolved
 
I just wanted to see how many people knew of this game. I personally Love this game, The single player missions are awesome with a great story behind the gameplay. And the Multiplayer is unbelievably fun, especailly when playing 16-people on four different TV's...... great fun. But what are you veiws on it and it's upcoming sequel???

I know of it. And I pry know a bit more about it than the average X-Box gamer (I'm not one though). It was originaly going to be a Macintosh exclusive game, untill Microsoft flashed money at the studio that was making it and bought them out.

This game is SO over hyped and over rated that it's not even funny. I played it. It's another FPS that looks pretty. I really wasn't impressed at all.

Did you play the Single player Missions or Multiplayer???

I thought it was one of the best FPS's to come out. They finally nailed controls on a console, the story was excellent, the graphics were good, and the gameplay was quite fun. Love the game. Can't wait for the sequal, it looks 100x better...I hear they've added flamethrowers and energy swords. That'll be sweet.

Multiplayer, which from what I've read is supposed to be the games strong point.

If I want a FPS, I'll play Goldeneye or Perfect Dark.

This game has owned my life for nearly 2 years now. My gang and I have played this game religiously ever since it first came out. And when Halo 2 comes out? Whoooo child..

I love Halo. I play multiplayer mode with my brother and his friends, usually. We always have a grat time. We've had Halo 2 pre-ordered for over a month now! :) I can't wait until that comes out!

Halo
 
I've played it against my cousin...we did that level with the two bases in the cliffs. He kept sniping me, I was no good :lol: Of course if I got in one of those purple speeders I could get him sometimes (I think he let me beat him). Suffice to say I didn't get very good at it in what little I played :goofygri:

The thing that rubbed me the wrong way was that you couldn't damage the vehicles in that level. You could smash them, roll them and they wouldn't even scratch. I kinda like it better if you smash something in a game it leaves a dent.

Still its a game I'm sure I'd enjoy owning, too bad its only on X-Box. Course it is out for PC but its expensive....ain't gonna blow that much on it now.

Heh.. Interesting subject, what's your weapon of choice? For me, it's the rocket launcher. I've mastered that gun to an art form. To a science. A lot of people claim that rockets takes no skill.... Until they play against me. Heh.

Stone Ill 12-20-2003 09:37 AM

I don't really have a weapon of choice. I beat my friends plenty just running and jumping around in clear view and I still manage to kill them. :lol:

Peanut 12-20-2003 09:46 AM

Great game. The ending of it does get very very boring. I personally think after the first flood level the game out right sucks. Multiplayer rocks though. My favorite weapon is the pistol. Just because my friends and I always play with a no sniping rule, but the pistol isn't sniping. Kinda. :evilgrin:

halo sucks.........

Storm Wolf 12-20-2003 11:35 AM

HALO!! wow don't even get me started! I loooooove that game! it's just about the only first person shooter i'll touch! multiplayer is most awsome...especially when playing with four players or more! The sequel is soooo totaly gonna rock! :D :D :D :P

Taloniss 12-20-2003 12:02 PM

My weapon = pistol. It's such a versatile weapon.

Please tell me that was a joke. If not. Madden sucks. There. :) So yeah I love this game I play it sometimes with mike and also with some friends. Great game. Halo 2 is going to be awesome and I cant wait!

SkaterMike 12-20-2003 03:07 PM

I love Halo and cant wait for Halo 2. My favourite weapons would be a combination of the shotgun for close range and the pistol for sniping and when I'm in a close quarters battle and have to reload the shotgun. I've played system link more times than I can count. One team on the top floor of my house, the other in my basement. It's the most fun I've had playing a video game. Does anyone else play Halo on the internet, through xbox connect? I will be when I get xbox live after christmas.

Weapons of Choice : Shotgun and Bazzooka
And I love Driving those jeeps.... Anybody here played 16-player Capture the Flag??? Super fun. 16 people Yelling and screaming at each other. Can't wait for Halo 2 it's gonna be 100000000 times better. And heres a great Web site for Halo Fans. They have these Hilarious Farce Videos. check them out at : http://www.redvsblue.com
