I've been very tempted to buy an Xbox just for Halo, even though I hardly play any games anymore.

I will get it for the PC. I heard it is only so-so because of the cookie-cutter levels.

I think that game would of been perfect if the grenades were time delayed. In other words if you could hold the grenade button in for a longer period of time and then when you released it it would explode sooner.

I tired of the "cookie cutter" levels which were tiring within one mission objective. Other than that - ROCK!!

Definitely a worthwhile diversion!

Back to Splinter Cell... just fired it up for the first time in three months.

I never even heard about Metroid except that I looked for it. There was only a few commercials...as opposed to 10,000 commericals per hour for Halo.

I've never put this many hours into a single player campaign - I've beaten it about 6 times, and right now I'm in the middle of single-player Legendary (at the "Assault on the Control Room" level and not doing well). Every Friday (almost every friday) I have Halo LAN fests at my friend's garage, where 16 people just duke it out and play CTF. In my opinion, this is easily the best game of the last 2-3 years; better than Counterstrike and Starcraft.

I've never seen a Halo commercial, ever. I got an Xbox for Christmas, and in it came this game called "Halo". I asked my dad why he got this game, dad said that guy at the store said it was a good game - I actually had to go online to search for it to find out it got good ratings. This was back in the first month where XBox game out, but nonetheless I still hadn't heard of it.

DOAXBV was an overhyped game, but I've only seen maybe 10 commercials for it in the past 2 months.

Nope, he's lying. Obviously he and his 15 "friends" don't have computers, and never played better games. I suppose for the xbox, HALO would be the second best game. I've just never liked it.

if you can get 16 people halo is better than CS or starcraft for the simple fact that everyone is in the same general area and can yell at each other
