THAT would suck. I was at gamestop and i heard these kids talkin about what if halo was 3rd person. I wanted to punch the kid right in the freakin face. He was like then we could see more of our surroundings. YOU WOUDNT BE ABLE TO SHOOT -blam!- IN 3RD PERSON

Yeah, that wouldn't be cool. It'd take away the sniper rifle and stuff. (well, it'd make the sniper rifle worse.)

If Halo was 3rd person, I wouldnt play it, the zoom in view would be wierd, no hitting people in the back without them knowing, (pursuiting), might as well throw any kind of stealthy attack out the window, (in maps like blood gultch and sidewinder anyway)

I hate anything that isn't 1st person. (Except for Splinter Cell, those games use it very well)

Yeah, I am about the same on that, Splinter cell pandora tomorow I was skeptical about, but it seems thats the ONLY 3rd person game that I will actualy play in any kind of multiplaying platform.

Believe it or not, the original Halo was planned as a 3rd person shooter (I know it sounds insane), I've seen the earlier versions of Halo as 3rd person (Evolution of Halo vid.) and believe me...it sucks the big one. Its a good thing bungie decided to turn it into a 1st person shooter right before they released it. So i extremely doubt that halo 2 will be in 3rd person (We've all seen the E3 2003 demo haven't we?).

ye i've seen the evolution video too, man halo looks lame third person so glad its first person. don't think it'll ever go back so no worries everyone.

Sorry for the earlier mis-spelling everyone, let me get this straight, I PREFER first person.
See the lower quote to see what i put. (slaps head with idiocy)

Yeah, Halo wouldn't have been near as good as a 3rd person. It's hard to believe that it started as an RTS.
