Please, help me comprehend Halo

[hazzer2007]

halo is great (only played the pc demo, but multiplayer is the best) because its more realistice than other shooter games, how can you fit 6-10 large rifels on your back????, + the graphics are amasing.

Can't wait for halo 2

Remeber, i said i dont find that fun, i dont like super-hyper-to-the-max-realiticness... i play games for fun, not realisticness

The only two-rifles system requires strategy, choice, sacrafice and thought. That is why it is better then the carry every weapon system most FPSes use, where you can just pull out whatever weapon is best at any given time.

[Marsupilami]

No

[Everay]

yes. and Halo was also going to be a RTS, originaly.

If it were possible for oneself to penetrate a game using some sort of phallic prompt in a display of lusty programming, I would do so to Marathon.

And the thing about Halo is it is very very polished. I rarely find myself playing and go "damn, I wish they had ***, or I wish they did ***** better, or "WTF, what the hell were they thinking when they made ****"

The only time I can think of is the entire Library level. It fucking sucks, it is possibly the worst level made for any game ever under any circuimstances, ever.


The 2 weapons thing is also for balance, too, since if you could carry a rocket launcher, sniper rifle, shotgun, and plasma pistol, you could be prepared for any confrontation perfectly.

It's the same reason you can't duel wield BRs or rocket launchers, or sniper rifles in the 2nd game. MC could easily do it (referring to the canon, and the fact you can flip a tank in the game).

I like the library level... /me rubs his shotgun

The rocket launcher in Marathon and the rocket launcher in Halo are the exact same thing to a T. I can't make the comparison with anything else, but the fact that they are an ongoing story makes me wish for an updated modern Marathon.

I've never played Marathon. Explain, is it in the Halo universe? Or just alot like it?

[NightWalker XI]

the mellee is one of my fav HALO things, its great, especially with Shotgun

[EarlyDawn]

Marathon is *hypothetically* in the Halo universe. There's signifigant evidence that suggests Halo may be before or after Marathon, but in the same universe.

If you had ever tried reading the side of it, it would say SPNKR. It's a god damn nickname.

[Zodiac]

What *is* "Marathon"? Link?

You said "Forgot the SPNKR"

He already stated "Rocket launcher" in his list.
