I tried to read all of this but I cant I just gotta say if you think Halo is good then you havent played the real FPS games. Halo was a knock off of Unreal and Mech warrior, its all 360 has in that genera, but the new games coming out now have to compeet with it casue of the huge following of Halo. But after an hour of playing it , I just wana play unreal or Mechwarrior. The game lacks so much and becomes borring real quick. especialy when their is so much out thier that is eather the same or better. the new COD4 is way better but lacks the fantasy which is why I say Mech warrior is a better choice for that style of game. However Unreal T. is a more sutibul game too , but then it would be the same as halo just different wepons.. Personaly if it aint real as in a Mp5 or a M60 or a AT-4 or RPG(Rocket propled gernade) then it is just lame to me. Phantasy is not one of my thangs but realisium is much more entertaining, especialy live its always gotta be online ofcoarse
