I have posted the following on some other forums across the web, but I thought it was time to come to the source, the home of Halo itself...
Sports Teams have fans, music groups have fans, but do video games have fans? More importantly, does Halo have fans? Are you one?
I know this sounds crazy but I am an American Studies student doing a graduate research project on video games and fan culture, in general, and Halo specifically. Don't worry, I am not some aloof out of touch academic, I have been a gamer my whole life and have been crazy about Halo since its release, so I have a lot to say on my own. However, I want to see what the online community has to say since, ultimately, it is the people who play the game whose opinions matter the most. So, if you are interested in responding to some questions please do, you may respond to as many or as few as you wish.
Are you a fan of Halo?
How long have you been playing Halo?
What is your favortie way to play Halo? (single player, coop, system link?)
When did you first realize you were a Halo fan?
What is your favorite experience you have had playing Halo?
What is your favorite thing about Halo? Least favorite?
Are you a fan of games besides Halo? if so which ones?
I think that is a good start. Feel free to respond here in the forum, or if you prefer, send responses to duttonnt@muohio.edu, and put Halo Fan as the email subject. Sorry for the long post but I greatly appreciate anyone and everyone who contributes. Much Thanks.
