Now, I love Halo, it's my favorite game. 1 and 2, but, there are so many other FPS games out there, I mean, there's Half Life, Quake, Doom, all those, I need to ask you something, since I've never played those games, what makes Halo so much better? How does Halo excel over those? I want your opinion, because they're all FPSs, but what makes Halo so much better to you?

1.Halo is the King of Online games.

1.5. Grunts.

2.Quake and Doom have not much of a Story.

3. Half-Lifes story isnt as involved.

4. Halo has cool chracters... think about it: a guy in half-ton armor, or a nerd with a crowbar? Which would you choose?

5. Halo (1 at least) has balance. Everyweapon has/had its purpose, and counterpart. (though the PP and Needler are questionable in Halo 2).

And thats all i can think of.

Halo & Halo 2 are much more well advertised than the other games were at their release time. Also an important fact to Halo: Ce's success is that it was nearly the only FPS out with Xboxs release, and was advertised as it's feature game. Bungie is the Xbox equivelant of Square Enix for Sony.

That was from the RvB season 5 preview, Sargeisms. It was "Hey, Grif, hold these bullets for me... IN YOUR GUT!" and Grif says "Ow! I can see my spine!"

I also have a question I need an answer for.

Are saves made with the Game of the Year edition of Halo compatible with the "normal" Halo edition? I'm going to purchase a used copy of Halo and if it's not Game of the Year Edition I'd like to know if my saves will be lost.

Halo isn't better. People who think halo is better then half life think that because it's their option. Some people hate halo and play half life. Some play half life and hate halo. Some people like both. People like halo because it's a unique and fun game. Saying halo is better than all FPS's is just an option.

Ummm......I'm pretty sure that the bolded parts mean the same thing....But the thing that keeps people coming back is the beginning of the story....and the funny lines!
