Honestly this is written so well I think they should just hand you a Destructoid name tag and say "get to work".
I can't agree more. CoD4 was really the only one that got hype AFTER its release. I found myself getting bored of Halo 3 and GTA4 quite quickly.
Well, if it makes anyone feel better (I doubt it) I have resisted buying COD4, GTA4, even tho' I was one in line to get Halo 3 last September.
I think Halo 3 overhype is true.. And, Halo 3 just feels rushed out the door. I like the replay feature and all, but the peeps playing (shouting their racist obsenities) and too many little kids and quitters have plagued them since Halo 2. And good gosh, could they not get the AR right? In Halo 1 it had 99 rounds of ammo (SWEEET) and they dumbed it down/rushed it out too. Oh well, I can't wait 'til Duke Nuk'em. Also, welcome back Evil!

I find that I get swept up in the event surrounding the launch of a major title, play about half of it, and then get pulled into the next one. I have easily a dozen or more games half-completed or less as a result of H.A.L.O.S. (including Halo).
I feel like I should play through them at some point, but I just never have the time or inclination.

I love Evil Chad. Or... wait, I hate Evil Chad? I don't even know what to say when I comment on your articles 0_0

In Halo: CE the Assault Rifle had 60 rounds.
Also, awesome post. I have H.A.L.O.S. but I do eventually go back and beat the game and have fun with 'em. It's usually like this - I play the game for a day or two, put it down, and then about 2 months later I pick it back up and finish it up in a couple of days.
Once I've let all the hype die down around a game, I stop looking at its faults and just enjoy the game.
Right now I could pick out more than just a handful of things wrong with GTA 4, but I'm still enjoying more that the first couple of days I had it.

I played halo 3. It was boring. its unbelievable how well microsofts adds worked, it even tricked reviewers into believing its a godlike game. I mean its like some gamers dont even play the game because they like it, only because its HEYLO AND HEYLO ROKS IT GOT 10. Seriously..
The hype was so bad it, even till this day, clouded the judgement of many, while its not hard to point out halo 3 is a very very generic game. Not bad at all ofcourse, but really nothing special. It amazes me every time when I see someone praising halo as the best game series ever. Come on, seriously. Gta4 was good but unfortunately there arent as much goofy weapons as in the previous GTA's, and it lacks decent cheats. This is a VERY small issue but if Rockstar would have put that in it would have made the game SO much better.
