Help! I can't stop playing!!! |
| Laura from Texas, USA says (25/Feb/2003): |
Halo is the sickest game I have ever played. I got hooked at my boarding school but all I ever played was the multiplayer version. After I got my own XBOX the first thing I did was go out and buy the game for myself. Immedialtly I was hooked. Althought the storyline get's old, the game was still amazing. Playing in so many different environments, from space ships, to the library, to the 'natural' outdoors, made playing intresting. The non stop flood of aliens provided a great challenge but nothing unbeatable. I'm still in the process of beating the game on legendary though and I'm having a bit of trouble. The mutiplayer modes are great. The split screen mode is tons off fun with lots of different levels to choose frome or ways to play (slayer etc.) and the cooperative play mode is great too. The graphics are amazing and the sound is good too. But my favorite part of the game is the vehicals. After getting the hang of steering, it's so great to drive the Warthog or the tank, and the covenant vehicals are great too, although I do tend to crash the banshee alot. The wepons are cool too but I wish there were more. The shotgun is my personal favorite. The stratigicly placed check points throughout the levels are nice so when you die you don't have to start compleatly over. OVerall this was a fun, captivating, and well planned out game. If any of y'all are trying to decide weather to get it on not, i reccomend it 100%!

Quite possibly the best FPS I've played (thus far)... |
| jazZ0r from oiad.net says (12/Feb/2003): |
I recently bought an XBOX (late December 2002), and started hearing all this talk about how great of a game HALO was from other XBOX owners. I was a bit skeptical at first, so I read various reviews of the game before I finally convinced myself to lay down the $50. I honestly cannot recall how many Best Buys I visited before I FINALLY found a copy in stock. I brought it home that night and right after dinner fired up the XBOX to see what the hype was all about... Well, after having played it, I can honestly recommend it to anyone who likes first person shooter games. After having played the Rise of the Triads and Dooms of the world, this one just brings it all together in an immersive, mind-boggling experience. I liked the experience so much, let's just say I'm urging the wife to preorder HALO 2 as my Valentine's gift...

halo is the best |
| G dog from chiacago says (12/Feb/2003): |
I have to say Halo is a good game, but it gets old. I got halo and beat it. All my friends tell me that i cant beat it on legendary. I have to say that it is too hard. I cant believe it takes that many bullets to kill 1 alien. O well it doesnt really matter tho, because the game is awsome. if you have an xbox it IS a must have, but dont believe the people that give it 10 stars. it is a really good game, but dont loose your head over it.halo kicks so much ass.

HALO, one of the best FPO games I have ever played. |
| Ian from Japan says (12/Feb/2003): |
I know HALO has had it's mixed reviews of good and bad from all gamers out there, but I am gonna give the good and bad about HALO as well. I first played this game at a friends place and it was one of the reasons I bought an Xbox. HALO is a game that all can enjoy, the multiplayer mode and split screen play is off the hook! With selecting and altering weapons for careful annihilation or total destruction this game can be enjoyable. I have beaten HALO and yes the story does get boring but overall this is real good game. You can't buy and play a game for a few hours and decide it was a waste of $50. Games take time to enjoy and if given the time to enjoy HALO, you will enjoy it too. I said it was one of the best, but not the best FPO game I have ever played. Let's see what HALO 2 comes out with Christmas and see what they come up with.

This is the greatest first person shooter game ever!Hell, its the best hame ever |
| Mike from Denver, USA says (10/Feb/2003): |
Anybody that buys this game will be impresed. It has great graphics and a great four player, four screen game. If you buy this game, make sure you buy a system link so that you can system link two x-boxes and telivisions and play with up to sixteen players. Try it, you'll love it. GOD DAMN THIS IS A GREAT GAME!

HALO-Best FPS Ever |
| Lt. Death from Illinois says (6/Feb/2003): |
HALO is the best FPS ever made. What other game has seamless transitions from foot to vehicle? And for those who think that it doesn't have enough vehicles need to think a litle. What other FPS has a tank, ATV, a hovering thing and a flying thing? The graphics kick < remove me > at $$ also, no other game can beat it. The aliens put up a good fight unlike other games where they go down in acouple of shots. Also, they have an awsome AI. The plot i great and intriguing with twists that you wouldn't expect. This game has raised the bar foe FPS games and they will only get better. The only reason I got XBOX was because of HALO but eventually more great games came out.

Halo age rating is waaay overrated! |
| A guy just like you from Richmond, B.C Canada says (2/Feb/2003): |
Halo is byfar the best plotted game ive seen in my life, also the graphics are the best ive seen, but thats not what I am here to talk about. I want to say a few things about the age rating. First it shoulden't have been rated mature. On the back it says its rated mature for animated blood and gore. All ive seen is animated blood, theres no gore! I think this rating drives people away from buying it. What im trying to say is that it should have been rated teen.

The best game ever |
| anik roy from NEW YORK, USA says (25/Jan/2003): |
This was the best game ever! I hope people buy this game to see what its like most of them might like it. Bungle has done a great job! I can't wait till they make Halo2. The graphics were great!

Sweeeet |
| DJ Kanyok from cleveland ohio says (23/Jan/2003): |
Halo is by far the greatest game that was ever created. It has awsome graphics, sweet plot, and cool weapons. The game is fun for multiplayer in every way possible. You can design your own set up for levels and have settings just for your liking. The single player is challenging and cooperative play is just as good.
|
1 thing to say |
| Griffin from Palm City, Florida says (22/Jan/2003): |
Halo is a great game. Period. But for some of you guys who are dising PS2 and GC, don't. Each system has their own great game. Halo has some of the best graphics out there until Halo 2 and Ninja Gaiden. I would recommend buying it. Its a great game overall and thats why I am reviewing it. Although I think it could use quite a few more weopons and more vechs. Either way, Halo2 wll have that. Well, what I am trying to say is.....buy it. But don't go trying to grab every dime for it. Its always going to be great. And its not going anywhere.

Sweet |
| A gamer from RSM, Ca, USA says (19/Jan/2003): |
I have three words for you: Best game ever. I think anyone who dislikes this game should stop playing video games and read a book or something.fun fun and more fun is what you will get out of this game. Multi player,system link,cooperative,and single player fun all the way!!!!

NUMBER 1 |
| nick kuggelerman from eagle idaho united states says (9/Jan/2003): |
halo is by far the best game ever created. Its graphics are unmatched, and its gaemplay is both realistic and exciting. The AI is the best I have ever seen for any system, characters move freely and are not programmed to do a certain task(for once). This adds a refreshing sense of orginality, unlike any first person shooter i have ever played. The coopertive mode is awesome as well, how could you not enjoy fragging some aliens with a friend? Coopertive mode is what makes the game possible to beat. Who wants a game thats so easy they can run through the hardest level in a day? Multiplayer is just amazing, and it really feels good killing all those people u dont like over a local network. I just love killing someone i dont like and then giggling to myself at how mad i must have made them hehehe. The levels are huge, and for those people who say the game sucks because they got lost, i have some advice: Go opposite the direction of all the dead aliens you killed. Wow thats a tough concept. Or if that doesnt work try going in the direction that the bad guys fire at you from. hey hey, im a genius. The only thing i dont like about the game is no bots. But im not complaining, this game has made me who i am. I am know joining the marines because of this game. Oh i went off track there, in otherwords, halo is the best game in the world......for those of you who didnt get it.... get it. You are making a huge mistake not buying it. Trust me it can change who you are.(for the better)

Awesome |
| Matt Green from Manchester, England says (7/Jan/2003): |
Halo is a brilliant first person shoot 'em up. It is the best one ever made. It does lack one thing though, and i knoked a star off for it, the ability to place bots in multiplayer games. Race is also pretty lame. The vehicles are amazing, the banshee, wonderful stuff. I would thoroughly reccomend this game to anyone with an Xbox, and the 4+ player multiplayer are totally AMAZING. In a nutshell, the best FPS (first person shooter) ever!

great game dont need to tell others not to buy cause you dont like it, could be improved though |
| John from Plano, Texas USA says (6/Jan/2003): |
this was a really good game along the lines of both gameplay and graphics alike. ya it could be improved some graphics wise but other than that it was a great game. the only thing i didnt like was the fact that you couldnt use the banshee in multiplayer. the people here that gave it really bad ratings, namely the people who gave it a rating of 1, seem to me like they are more of PS2 fans. i read one persons review and he said that he thought the controlls sucked. that by far is his opinion. i like the PS2 controller over the xbox one even though i prefere xbox over PS2. also people said that halo got boring quike and that people should by the GTA games instead. i got tired of the GTA games quiker than i got tired of Halo. When you beat the GTA games what is left to do, no multiplayer unless you have the PC versions, sure you could start a new file and play it all over again but it wouldnt be as much fun because you would no what to do. At lest in Halo you can beat it multiple times on different difficulty levels with each time playing being a little different than the last. plus you have alot of different multiplayer types to choose from with bot split screen and system link. when Halo 2 comes out this year there will also be the option to go live with xbox live. and just to mention it i do think Halo should have been rated teen, there just isnt enough blood for it to be given a mature rating.

Greatest game ever!!! |
| Jimmy from Van Horne, Iowa USA says (4/Jan/2003): |
Halo is the best game i have ever played. Theres only 1 or 2 bad things about it but the rest of the game pretty much makes up for those. I dont understand why people think PS2's are better. Halo got the XBOX in the the guiness book of world records. The PS2 is way over rated. For 1 you have to buy memory cards for it and the graphics arnt as good as XBOX. Vice City could never compare to Halo. Another thing size dont matter its how u use it. For all people who dont already own this game i suggest u go out an buy it or wait for Halo 2. Halo is overall the best game ever.

| Caro from Dallas, TX says (3/Jan/2003): |
This game called Halo was given such rave that I ran out to by it. What a worthless game? It was bad in ever way possible. The graphics were very lame and all the aliens looked like robots from the toy department in Wal-Mart. The weapons were rip offs from every sci fi game out there as was the extremely pathetic plot. They should have made the plot a off the wall joke like in Hunter instead this dramatic piece of fluff. The sounds must have come from the porgrammars garage because they showed no promise from the start. Single player gets boring within the first two levels and multiplayer brings nothing interesting new to the table. I am planning to pawn this worthless game so is any one wants to waste money just check the local pawnshops. I am a warning to all the people attempting to find out wether this game is acutally worth buying.
Overall this game is worthless and lame that has no real appeal so please stay away from it and get Splinter Cell or Ghost Recon

By far the best game ever made!! |
| mike says (2/Jan/2003): |
The people at bungie are geniuses. this game is amazing its challenging, has 2 player coop, multiplayer, a great story line, and the controls perfect for the X-Box! I cant wait till Halo 2 comes out! I think it comes out in july23/o3
