Who needs any other first person shooter than Doom? I don't care what any of you say, that one was by far superior to every other FPS game.

And I believe there's the possibility of Halo 3 being ported to the PC, but as Laser said, if it is, it'll be naff.

Agreed and agreed.
Halo 3 was good but i thought it would be a little bit better.
Even if it did come out on pc now,its a little late because its been out on 360 for ages and most people have done it.I know not everybody has a 360,but still.

Why not just say it? And how you've worded that sentence seems a little insolent, watch yourself.

I think it's for me to decide what's spam. And if you'd just posted GTFO I would have still have given you the infraction. End of.

That's like comparing apples and oranges.

Unrealistic work of fiction with an above average story

-vs-

Realistic shooter with a pretty thin story that could have come from any random news report.

I liked playing CoD 4 better then I did playing Halo, if only because I like the stealthy tactical approach better then the guns blazing grenade spamming way of Halo. Still, you can't compare.

You thought the story was above average? I thought it was the product of a mad scientist with a confusion ray.

Forgive me, but is it not RPGs and adventure games (or anything like that) that need great stories? Fair enough, a good story does enhance the experience, but it doesn't 'get you going' (if you'd rather, excited) like a (not necessarily 'crap') simple plot. Just look at Doom (I like to refer to that one) - monsters from Hell, just blast the living shit out of them. That's basically it. And every time I hear that summary, I get pumped up for blasting the shit out of whatever is around the corner.

Now, a complex story? Interesting, no doubt (I can only repeat myself here), but there's so many little details that when the plot's been explained, you've lost all will to blast things, and have gained the will to find a book with a story like it.

That said, it's different for each person.

Compared to other video games these days I'd say the story was pretty elaborate and solid, given that entire books and comics were released telling parts of the story not told in the games.

Havoc I see that as cashing in, not writing a solid story.

I've thought about buying one of those books once, but changed my mind the last second because I didn't feel like reading (and I still have a lot of Dark Tower to read). As I recall the books are pretty lengthy, not some 50 page piece of shit story.

Besides no-one is forcing anyone to buy those books, half of the Halo players don't even know the damn things exist. It's fan merchandise if anything else, I doubt they cashed in a lot with those books.

I was talking in the gameplay terms only. Other than that yes there's not much comparison, but in terms of gameplay I prefer CoD. I know the style is diffreret but even so. Halo's fun enough, but not as good for me.

Expect it after Halo Wars becomes a major flop and they find themselves in need of money.

lol @ people who think Halo Wars will flop, it wont do Halo 3 type numbers, but it will do good. Its got Halo, and RTSs are becoming more popular on consoles. Even if it did, why would M$ be in need of money?
