draconithor said:I've gone through halo 1 campaign over 10 times and i still see new things. Ive been playing halo pc online since its release and some things still surprise me. Halo was the first game to put everything together too (second button nades, second button melee,excellent vehicles, intelligent ai, large open landscapes and most importantly freedom). I went through half life 2 and i could barely get through due to overwhelming boredom. Sure the graphics are great but doing the same thing over and over again with not many options to go about the situation and in the same environment for long periods of time, is not my idea of fun. Also many people claim that halo copied off all these great games, but they never say which games they are. Halo was definiatly the first of its kind.
Half Life 2....boring????? Now halo doesn't float my boat but I can dig that some people like it, hell some people like Mc Donald?s, god knows why but they do.
Anyway HL2 and bored....first off two words ?Gravity Gun?
Did you never try to beat a zombie to death with a paint can? (takes about 10 hits and nearly total paint coverage) Lovingly cart along a buzz-saw blade for 9/10th's of the game (only to have the damn thing rebound and fly off miles and be completely un-retrievable) not appreciate the fantastic set pieces? Grigori and his traps in Ravenholm? The striders in the city as they turn the city into a war zone? The super gravity gun? (<3)
Did you even try CS-Source or TF2? Portal maybe?
Ok maybe I should accept that it's not everyone?s slice of cake but someone please explain to me why not? (And sensibly please with actual example not just "it suxxord!!!!!oneeleven11!!"
