CE isnt a classic because its good
Its a classic because at the time, it was the first of its kind, and no one had seen anything like it. It revolutionarised gaming. People were amazed.
But now, ten years later, you lok a it and realise ifs a pretty crap game
The only reason people still say they love it is because they loved it at the time and refuse to let go, and refuse to let newer games in. Thats why theres so much hate for Reach IMO.
And i think Bungie knew this. They knew no one had seen anything like it, and they would be so blown away by it that they woulldnt realise how crappy a game it was. They didnt have to make it good. They could have easily made it to the quality of Halo 2 or Halo 3. These two games are great because bungie realised people would expect more.
I know i said i'd leave you guys alone, but i had to get this off my chest. Now to prepare for the armies of evil nostalogic people (sorry been playing too much Oblivion)
And any typos in thispost are down to this crappy iPad, not me

[url=http://www.halopedian.com/Human-Covenant_War]This may also help.[/url][/quote] Saves people having to explain. Mark V read that and you'll understand. The Halo's were only relevant due to their discovery in Halo CE, the Covenants goal was wiping out humanity as they were an affront to the gods (false as the prophets knew Humans were Reclaimers) and to 'light the sacred rings' for the great journey. They only found Alpha Halo in CE, Delta Halo itself like Alpha Halo was a complete accident too. After interrogating 343 Guilty Spark, the Prophets knew about the Ark and thus that's when the Rings become more crucial to the fight for Earth. -
I didn't read past the 5th sentence because I refused to waste any more time of my life. That's probably one of the stupidest things I've ever read. You obviously have know appreciation for the classic games. If you don't like the game, then why are you in it's forums. Leave now, and never come back.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mark V guy I made it to express an opinion (inb4keep your opinions to yourself because we're biased and cant accept difference of opinion)[/quote] Then why do you continue to post that everyone who disagrees with you is a nostalgic hipster fanboy, as though it were a statement of fact? And if you are just trying to express an opinion, rather than aggressively try to push something you believe to be absolutely true upon others, why did you post [b]three separate threads[/b] about the same thing? You can claim to be annoyed with us for not respecting differences of opinion, and to some extent that's probably true. But you also seem to be holding yourself to a much more lenient standard.

- Respect your fellow members, or at least tolerate them publicly. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated, even if they probably deserve it. -achronos Lolz, this goes for both sides. BTW, halo ftw!!! -edit: I can recite forum rules like the pope can recite bible verses.....lolz. [Edited on 01.01.2012 1:20 PM PST]

I disagree with OP, and would rather say that not much have changed since Halo:CE, and that the game still holds up well today. It's even better than most new FPS that get released. Today it seems games focuses more on scripting, cutscenes, quicktime events and story, rather than making a game that is fun to play (dynamic gameplay). Even Reach went more into that direction which is one reason i was glad Bungie stopped making Halo, it just wasn't as good as the previous games. I wish i could say that nobody thinks that Cod have a great campaign as it is the mother of scriptedness, but that is obviously, and somewhat sadly not true. And probably the reason why MarkIV dislikes Halo?

The Library just has a bunch of dead ends and stuff. 343 is where that scary horror comes in. I mean there goes my freaking elevator. How the hell am I supposed to get back up there?! Hey another elevator. I wonder what this button does. What?! It's-it's going down?!! NNNNOOOOOOO!!!! Also, I get lost on that level so many times even today. So many doors!!!

Every time Noble Team becomes inactive, somebody dies. In H2 and H3, although the AI went to their positions, they still had active AI so if you betrayed, they would kill you. In Reach, I can kill as many as I want and Noble Team won't do anything about it. Sure, in CE, on T&R, I can kill the marines at the beginning but they will eventually get out of their positions and attack me (IIRC). [Edited on 01.01.2012 11:40 PM PST]
