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

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mark V guy I was always under the impression that by the year 2552 the battle was more about stopping the covenant from activating the rings. If the war had been going on for ages before that why didnt the covenant attempt to activate the rings before?[/quote] "By 2552" nobody had yet discovered any Halo rings. It isn't until September of that year that the PoA and its Covenant assailants happen across Alpha Halo. And Halo 3's battles happen only 3 months later. As for the Battle of Earth making any strategic sense for the UNSC, how [i]doesn't[/i] it? During ODST, the UNSC had no idea where Regret's carrier had jumped to. [Edited on 12.30.2011 11:55 AM PST]
