Do you think the story is more important than gameplay?

What do you think the story will be?

Have your say....

(I personally think thay while the gameplay is excellent in Halo, the same can be said for many other fps'. I think that the story and locations etc do define Halo to an extent. Character is key. The reason most people remember Halo is becasue the Master Chief is such a recognisable character).

Both gameplay and story are important. You can't have one and not the other.

halo gameplay is very special to me. no other FPS feels that "right". everything is so well balanced. but the story is very important too. the halo CE story was very brilliant. the halo 2 story was very good too, but the atmosphere wasn't as good as in CE in some levels(outdoor)

If story sucks game is just normal FPS. If gameplay sucks no one don't want to play it. So both are importans.

i agree that both are important too, i just think its the story that makes halo stand out from the crowd.

one thing i'd like to see, is halo3 just sticking with master chief. arbiter was cool, but the game is about master cheif, they could just have arbiter in cutscenes, or at least make master chief in the last level!

I agree with gazdaman master chief should be in the last level at the very least, but hopefully for more of the game this time
