After a long streak of playing Halo 3 and Halo Reach multiplayer, a few buddies and I decided to crack out the good ol' Halo CE and play some FFAs and 2v2s. And I must admit:
CE is the most fun game by far.
It doesn't matter what kind of player you are. You could be a casual gamer just looking for some fun and laughs, or a hardcore aspiring MLG player looking to prove his skills, but the fact is that you will enjoy Halo CE.
The Multiplayer is competitive and skill-testing, the maps are fast-paced and balanced (except for Chiron), and the weapons are all *gasp!* useful. Even the 3-shot pistol is somehow balanced with the other weapons, mostly because auto-aim and bullet-magnetism are minimal.
There is no random, gimmicky bull-blam that ruins the game, like most shooters have nowadays (I'm looking at you, MW2 and BlackOps!).
There'a a reason Halo CE is considered one of the very best pre-online multiplayer games of all time: it's just so damn good! No wonder it caused people to actually take the trouble to set up LANs!
Why can't newer games be this perfect?
