Facts always sound stranger than fiction, whenever I do a bit of work on my site its interesting to Notice most of my regular readers (Knuckleheads of the first order) love to blast ,me with a bunch Of stats, my question remains how far do these figures do in actually establishing the greatness of the game.

Halo is a perfect example of a millions of users falling in for a hype-machine created by Microsoft, I do admit the game was good in certain ways but majority of the game lacked substance that would actually keep me engrossed to my Screen.

The vehicles were cool, the dual weapons were kinda okay,(They been done loads of time, Blood 2 was the First FPS to do that) ,the Covenants are too colorful to be bad and mean, they look right out of an episode form Tele tubbies, there is no solid plot holding the game, If anyone picks up and plays through the game, they’ll have no clue of what happened or how it happened, unless you look stuff up on M$ paid fan sites to get a grasp of what actually is going on.

The best bit about the game is and has to be Master Chief, Bungie has managed to get the lead character dot on, he ranks close to Snake or Freeman as a game character, but the rest of game is a monotonous winding road that keeps raking up a dry well with its sequels.

People will go and pick up a billion copies of Halo, but only one copy of Okami gets shelved in the meantime. People crib about American not making quality games, when developers do make quality games the crowd just fails to notice its efforts.

I’ve never come across a single site that keeps ranting about Psi-ops and the possibilities of its sequel, post release of Stranglehold or what about Psychonauts, even a game like “second sight” had a much deeper storyline than Halo, People call themselves hardcore gamers by playing through levels of Halo online, but very few actually realize the essence of silence in games like Half life or Metroid prime.
