Even if he is, don't blame him for doing it. If you do, you might catch a banhammer in the ass. ;-)

Ridley, you got burned. Quite badly in fact. Voting 1/10 for a game is kinda harsh. Even the worst of games have at least ONE good feature...they at least get 2/10...

No. Although he does seem a bit arrogant from a video I watched of him.

Reasons why Halo could get a low score:

1)Poor graphics-Other games that came out around the same time had superior graphics, halo was sub-par for the time.

2) Repetative level design. Most of the levels look quite similar with few new looking areas coming at you. And several levels or stages are just a previous map that you play through backwards.

3) No storyline. The game halo doesn't explain or tell you anything about what's going on
(why you're there, why the covenant want to kill you, so on...)

3) Many glitches and bugs in the programming.

Sorry to tell the truth, but these things are true. Don't get me wrong, I like halo, but I do get mad at the arrogance of many people on these forums who assume Halo is the best and that no other game is worth playing. You guys complain about nintendo "fan-boys" yet you're all a bunch of biased fan-boys yourselves.

Flame me if you wish, I simply told the truth.

Well, Halo ws being whipped by Microsoft at the time... But for the love of god, dont dis the storyline. It has to be the best one yet. And the actual game has to be the best I've ever personally played. Halo, since i installed it, has been the most common icon on my computer. I never stop it. Starcraft, Warcraft, Age of Empires, etc, they have all come and gone, but Halo has never been thrown away from boredom. Unlike Chrome or Splinter Cell.

To quote the Captain from MXC, "Well, you're wrong." This is not the tru7h, simply your opinion, and your personal view of the tru7h. The by no means makes it the tru7h. The fact that Halo was a best seller, and that crazed fans all over the place continue to play this game for hours on end even 3 years after it was released, well, you can't tell me it was a bad game. It had an awesome storyline, if you ask me. If you didn't get it, well, you have problems. Graphics were also very good, sure, maybe some games at that time beat it, but very few, if any. In some levels you were actually on the same level, just backwards. If you can't see this, well, you still have problems. There were some glitches, but not many. There are just as many and more in other games. That these were found is mostly due to the extreme players that were playing this game day after day after day. Look at all the hype for Halo 2. You can't tell me Halo was a bad game.

Nope. Best the Xbox had.
2) Repetative level design. Most of the levels look quite similar with few new looking areas coming at you. And several levels or stages are just a previous map that you play through backwards.
Too true. They were just a tad rushed.
3) No storyline. The game halo doesn't explain or tell you anything about what's going on
(why you're there, why the covenant want to kill you, so on...)

Hence the books. The game of Halo is merely part of a much larger story. It was brilliantly done.
3) Many glitches and bugs in the programming.
Two three points. Anyway, there were only the same number of bugs in it as there are in other games. Have you ever heard of Hidden & Dangerous? Bugged to buggery.

You know who is a real arrogant ass? That guy who made Ninja Gaiden...(Itagi? I dunno) I read a interview of him in a magazine and he said that he thinks he could make any game better than its developers could; including make Halo2 better than Bungie (I'm paraphrasing, but not much)

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.
