Title: So I finally was able to buy halo
Post by: QuDDus on January 17, 2002, 09:06:39 PM
I have to say the game just kicks ass. Especially with 4 players. Only complaint I have is there is just not enough weapoins. I want more weapons in the game. Alien weapons are not all that sweet. And I hate that you can\'t hold more than 2 weapons.

But the levels are just huge. It is defenitly an xbox killer app.

I got it monday and have been playing it none stop with friends. I am nearly at the end of the game.

I\'ve had it since launch and still have a blast when my friends come over and play co-op or multiplayer death matches...

What difficulty do you have it on?

right now o normal I haven\'t taken it up to hard yet. I know it kicks ass. I think I am on the last level. I am at the part where you have to drive out of the ship before it blows up or you lose.

Do you believe after playin the game none stop I just learned how to drive it. I always let my friend drive. But I think where on the last level. We keep getting blown off warthog and never make it to end and blow up in the ship.

It\'s to much heavy fire and you can\'t run out you have to drive out. I\'ll eventually beat the board later.

Don\'t pay attention to anything around you, just watch the road and drive as fast as you can...oh and just a little tip in case you haven\'t found out, the first ship pick up doesn\'t make it, save yourself some time and keep going...

Co-Op is where its at though. I prefer playing it that way, then going though it with 1 player. Single player gets boring after you\'ve beaten if quite a few times.

Congrats! You\'ll playing one of the finest Xbox game.   I like being in the tank and having troops on the side shooting with you.  I\'m playing single player on normal and still at the swamp area.  I till BREED comes out. :D

Psst.. It\'s a videogame. I didn\'t know it was a prerequisite for a videogame to be entirely realistic.

It adds more to the game, just making it that much more fun.  Its what makes HALO different from the pack

How does not being able to carry as many weapons add to the game? It certainly doesn\'t take away, but how does it add?

I don\'t know about you but it adds to the realism to me, and I like that feeling of realism in a game like Halo

It adds strategy, planning, realism, thought--good things for a FPS.

Why not limit it to 3 guns, instead of two? I think that would be even more realistic, because he could carry another gun on his back, or something.

I just got to play HALO yesterday with my friends and it is the BOMB-diggity.  The warthog is easily my favorite part of the game.

lol. Dont get angry, but would any of you be offended if i thought halo was not all that great? Yeah sure ive played it. Not as much as i would have liked but it wasnt jaw dropping. And when people say if i were to get xbox what good games would there be, all everybody would say would be halo, with a few other games but thats not the point. I guess it is a pretty damn good game if it has this many people gawking about it.

M&M I rely don\'t mind the frame rate. I barely can tell.

I wish I could have had five guns. I hate having 2 it sucks and why not more guns?

I saw the frame rate drop slightly in some places, but I think it mostly had to do with HDD access b/c I could hear the drive spinning and thrashing when the frame rate dropped.

Also I hate the alien guns.  Give me more gats!
