Famitsu reviews HALO.

Sakai - 9

The ultimate FPS. All you do is basically search out, and kill enemies. But the graphics are so realistic that you get sucked in easily. I was worried about the controls but they are no problem. The difficulty is also decreased from the US version. PC gamers should also definitely buy this!!

Kisshi - 8

The visuals, presentation, and drama are all magnificent. The movements are very smooth. The controls are very complicated but not too difficult, and it\'s basically a game without faults. However, there basically isn\'t a map to go by so people without good sense of direction might not be able to find their way around.

Sugenoya - 7

There is great intensity, with invisible enemies opening fire, and suddenly appearing in front of your eyes. But, it takes time getting used to the strange way of using the right and left sticks. I had some troubles lining up targets because of that. There\'s no map display, so I got lost easily.

Haneda - 9

I\'ve played these types of shooting games before, but for those players who haven\'t playing PC games they will probably be wowed. There is loading in the middle of levels, but only for a few seconds. It\'s hard to play multiplayer unless you have the right setup, but I think single player is more fun. I wish you were able to spin around faster.


The average is like... 82.somethin\'... Pretty good, considering FPS aren\'t really their thing.

FPS\'s aren\'t big in Japan, like fighters and RPG\'s are..

So that\'s not a bad score for a FPS in Japan. ;)

I\'m sorry if I think your analogy is a bit off, but considering the products they already sell...

I just don\'t understand Japanese gamers. They won\'t except anything american but, they flock to racers and dancing games.

Am I the only person in this world who thinks Halo is complete and utter TRASH? I bought it when I bought my Xbox, got it home played it and was so not impressed. I played it more and my opinion just kept getting lower and lower of the game. I eventually moved on and played Munch & Odd which is a true gem in the Xbox\'s library, yet somehow is overlooked for yet another run off the mill FPS.

I just don\'t get it.

L-I-C...

You\'re not the only one...

Although I don\'t think Halo us trash, I was not too impressed and got bored on the second level.

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Well this is a shock... Most people think the game really picks up on the second level.

You guys tried it on Legendary, didn\'t ya?
