Subject: why does everyone say this is the best halo game so far?

l;abhrfiodj!!

I think that the plot was the best, and the fact that flood randomly stood up made them frightening!

OH MY GOD! You are so right!

The first game I ever had on my xbox was Army of Darkness, based on one of my favorite movies, it even had lines voiced by Bruce Campbell and it had the same damn thing, want to change weapons? Great, go ahead, scroll through the list of the 20,000 you are carrying later in the game. It really affected the feel of the game play...slow, bogged down, and lacking that adrenaline rush of continued action. VERY good call on the game in general.

Halo:CE is the best.

Have You Played it yet?

If not, then you should. Because its the best game ever made for its time and still the best game ever made to this day for me. If only it had new graphics and duel wielding like halo 3.

Halo 2, 3, odst and reach are garbage compared to it.
The only thing that the other halos have over it is graphics, and new weapons/vehicles. And thats all I can say about the other halos. The enviornments in halo ce were way cooler and open ended than any of the other halos. was never a fan of covenant backstory and never will be. The covenant were more mysterious and alien before halo 2. with halo 2, the elites spoke english and the prophets with the brutes were revealed along with the arbiter. And even partnering up with the aliens was wack. too much behind enemy lines info.
In my opinion, every halo game after part 2 didnt have the halo feeling as CE did. It felt like it wasnt halo any more.

If a player would play any other halo game before part 1, Id think they wouldnt get it, because they would be use to playing with the new weapons, graphics, characters and gameplay.
I think bungie tried to hard with the other halos.

But hopefully whey will remake this game. And bring halo out of the uglyness its in.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

It's the 7ruth. Honestly, I've never had more fun with any other game. I also have the best memories ever from this game.

Man, I miss dem Halo 3 days :'(

Because for it's time, it was by far.

May 11 will be known as Halo 2 Day for me from now on.

Well Ive been in the Navy since June 25, 2009 and its a fun job right now.

Plot wise this is the best Halo game IMO. I get games for their plots first and online second so this is why Halo CE will be my favorite Halo game.

My brother and I had so much fun on Sidewinder just sticking the warthog and watching it fly all over.

R.I.P. Halo Movie and all of the unseen awesomeness.

Because it is.

But for reals, it was before xbl is what it is now. On Halo CE it would be you and your buddies, four xboxs, 16 controlers, a couple tvs or projectors, and couple cases of beer all stuffed into a dorm or barracks. Also everyone loved it when it came out. Your girlfriend, dad, whoever, everyone loved it and you got to have a lot of fun playing coop with them.

Those my friend were the good times that some of us will never get again because cause some of those people are dead and it was a long time ago before we had to "grow up."

My two cents.

Hold it right there.

Hello. Name's Brian. Look, if you're looking for a flame war with me, just open up the Flood and write up some not-nice things about religion and I'll bring my nukes to the party.

If you want some other way to contact me, you can forget it.

If you're interested in some of my work, you can check my homepage out.

Y'know, I had an aweomse experience, a Hunter fell through a hole and killed himself when I was looking for the Cartographer. I bent over to look, and fell with him. I lost half of my Health and a load of shields. But I got like, 4 levels ahead. Yay.

Halo CE was cool, because it felt differently from all Halo games. The closest experience I had to this game was ODST. Still, in CE, you had to adapt different fight styles, and areas gav e off a stronger, different feeling when you wanted to. The Flood came out, popping -blam!- of the walls and creeping me out, and then finding the goddamn Proto-Gravemid,....

AWSOME.

In fact, I actually played Halo 3 before Halo CE, yet the entire place felt like I;ve never seen it before. Elites, Grunts, Hunters, it was different.

This guys' math fails, read this locked thread:
Enjoy this Epic math fail.

I have just downloaded Halo CE and I've gotta say, it's great already. Only after 15 minutes of gameplay, I'm having loads of fun on legendary. I will be playing more tonight. Wish that it had AT LEAST Local matchmaking, for the fact that I live in a house so LAN is useless and I don't know any friends besides 1 who owns CE. But yeah, so far, it's great.

P.S. The pistol had so little recoil and high damage that it felt weird, but I love it now.

It is so well liked because it was unlike anything that was out at the time. Halo CE had open environments that gave you a real sense of how huge of a world you were in. The gameplay was unique, and the weapons were all so fun to use. On top of that, it presented a story so epic that (in my opinion) many games to this day still don't compare with it.
