HALO

[Yanny]

I own an Xbox, Gamecube, and a computer.

I play Halo. Fun game. Got old after I beat it.

On Gamecube, I play Metroid Prime. Long game, very fun. More than just a shooter (Halo is a pure shooter). Theres an adventure element to it.

On the computer, I play Day of Defeat. 10x better than any Xbox or Gamecube game. I can play with 63 other players, in a WWII setting. Its free.

Also on the computer, I have a ZSNES emulator. I play my favorite SNES games, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, ect.

Ive played DOD Yanny, nowhere near as fun as Halo. for one thing, it says something about a game when you need 63 other people to make it fun (Halo is awesome even with 4 people) with 16 people, the game is insanely beautiful. DoD pales in comparison

[Yanny]

How often can you get a game of 16 people together? Thats four Xboxes, 4 TVs, 16 Controllers. I can turn my computer on and play a 20v20 game of DoD in under 5 minutes.

[Janus]

thats part of the thrill yanny, that means 16 people in one place, in one game. do you have any idea of the level of intensity created by that? of the atmosphere in the room? it is obscenely high. again, yanny, a 16 player game is a pipe dream for most, yes, but with even as many as four people (i.e. one xbox, one tv) you can have an awesome gaming experience. i would also like to bring into this that unless this has changed very recently, you have never played Halo with another human being. until you do, your opinion on the matter is irrelevent, you have to see the beauty of Halo multiplayer before you can respond.

actully Yanny DoD only gets 32 people and even with 4 the game is still fun.

halo Beats DoD as far as Graphics go because its Newer, DoD cant compair there.

but also u really cannot compare the 2 games, yes they are both FPS but DoD is Mostly Team Bases while Halo is GungHo Rambo Based

and yes you can have good Team comat in Halo but the Team work in Halo doesnt compare to it in DoD.

its all what you prefer.

and any who compares DoD to RTCW is dead wrong, they are compeletly different!!!

You have to look at how good the game was when it was released. Using that criteria, the best game of it’s time was Half-Life. By far the most immersive single player experience. Plus, look at how many more years of superb gaming it’s MODS have provided…

But….Battlefield 1942 wipes the ass of Medal of Honor :wink:

[Janus]

what on earth does BF1942 or MOH have to do with anything?

Soldier Of Fortune 2: Double Helix for PC is the coolest first-person shooter I’ve ever played. I don’t think anyone else here has played it; I started a topic awhile ago about it, but no one responded. Ah well! Keep an eye out for it, it’s awesome (the game, not the topic i made) :)

Judging on how fun the original was, SoF2 mgiht be all you make it out to be. ;)
As for Halo, my friends play it… all the time. So judging on the sheer hours they’ve spent on it alone, can probably agree that it belongs somewhere in the top 10 of FPS of all time.

ive only played HALO once or twice, and it seemed like a pretty good game. but nowhere near the best FPS ever. Gotta go old school here with either Wolfenstein or the newer Goldeneye. although the levels on HALO are far superior to anything yet. but i have to say i live for Goldeneye and can lay the smackdown on anyone.

[Janus1]

yea, I must admit, my original post was a bit fanboy, and certainly hyperbole. That said, its def. in the Top 10.

M-4: Goldeneye is the shit, I wish they would update the graphics and sound and put in on Xbox.
And I would destroy you in Goldeneye.

what settings/cheats do you use?

i like 1st to 5/license to kill

DK mode
turbo mode
infinate ammo sometimes

ive got the starting sequence memorized for the temple and most of it down for Eqypt and caverns.

i usually play with this guy from my school, but since i moved we dont get to. we would run each weapon set once, then again w/o inf ammo and keep a running score. we’d do the same on Super Smash Bros. for 64/cube

[Drumstix]

I think the Metal Gear Solid games are awesome. I have a PS2 and I’d say my favourite game for it is MGS2, the graphics are so good, and it’s much more realistic than any FPS.

[Janus1]

settings:
Liscense to kill
10 min
auto aim/reticule off
automatics or pistols usually

cheats:
none
I play mostly in the stack and bunker. I DOMINATE the stack, i memorized the start sequence. if we play with any kind of mines, and i get to the top floor, I win. period.

fun game type:
slappers only
turbo mode
liscense to kill
archives
tiny bond
dk mode
THE INSANITY
