Really people...really? I was recently browsing Digg.com as I often do, when I came across a small article describing the expectedness of people ditching class and work to play halo for hours on end. Pause...I like Halo, I like the story, the game is fun, I'm not a hater, it's just not the best game evar...unpuase. There are better fucking games to take all day off and play. Halo isn't this super immersive game that keeps you so involved that you won't acknowledge your loved ones for, it's your standard, run of the mill shoot' em up FPS. It's not even that intense, you should just sit back and enjoy killing the little space jihaders after you get home from work/school, besides, you're gonna need all that money from work if you're stupid enough to buy the plethora of Halo 3 branded merchendise...but thats another story.
