Where did this "Halo is a good game" meme come from? Its campaign, like all regen shooter campaigns, is boring shit where you shoot at bullet sponge enemies until they shoot you enough that you need to hide until your health is back, and the multiplayer is really nothing special when compared to any standard shooter's multiplayer except with a ridiculously high TTK.
Is it just nostalgia from the kids who got an xbox over the superior PS2 or Gamecube?

bump

anti-bump. Halo is an actual good game. The campaign is fantastic. Yeah, if you dissolve any game, it will come down to those characterisitcs. It is all about the fun factor and halo is just simply fun. The story and lore is fantastic too (except for 4 and 5).

Who cares faggot, Halo was fuckin baller in co-op and had awesome setpieces. Fuck all you jaded niggers on Zig Forums

agreed

FUCK

It's purely nostalgia

If what you say is true, then why is it so fun? Are we just deluding ourselves?

Respect the classics faggot

Are you that desperate for validation? This isn't Reddit, you know.

Hot take, have never heard this unique opinion before.

>halo
>classic

>Look mommy, i posted it again!

if you wanna bait, at least spice it up without having to copy paste for each OP.

Anything after the current-day /vr/ cutoff point isn't classic and never will be. It's like calling Nickelback or Linkin Park classic rock.

The MP is great. The high TTK makes it one of the best shooters there are. It's just not about AUTO AIMING and shooting, but has combos to kill fast.

The Halo design is actually quite clever. They knew consoles were shit to play as FPS, so they made the rules around the AA not being the only defining factor. 2 weapons that combine along with power weapons, nice sandbox gameplay and designs make a great arena shooter.

343 doesn't understand this though. Any indie game that copied Halo did, but not 343. Play Murder Miners and you'll see.

halo has health pickups all over the place though

isnt that just CE and Reach? every other game just used regenerating health.

I think that was just CE and Reach. It might have been in 5 but I never bothered with it.

Halobabies will defend this

nice b8, but you must be horrid at the game if you think that the power weapons are the only good weapons.

kids whose first fps was halo are now 20+ and make up majority of this board now.
99% of posters now will love halo not knowing it was universally hated here during the boom.

>>every weapon except gravity hammer, energy sword and explosives are useless
>he's too incapable of using the BR or CE pistol

I'm not even sure if you've played the game.

It is just nostalgia. I remember loving it as a kid. I tried halo 3 now and it’s just boring. I still like other games from the era like l4d2 and some cods but halos core gameplay sucks. I remember having more fun playing fat kid and messing around in forge mode.

>universally hated
>during its boom

make up your mind cod faggot

It's funny because when Halo CE came out I really loved shooters and Halo clicked with me as a good shooter very quickly. Meanwhile my friends who preferred fighting games and JRPGs mainly to FPS games were on the elitist hate bandwagon, they didn't even play FPS games but were so sure Halo had ruined it. It's amazing that after all this time they're still at it

Pretty much this. People praise it for shit like the co op but there are other games that do it better, it's multiplayer is also just mediocre compared to stuff like quake, tf2, and even cod.

Who keeps posting all these anti-Halo threads? Is it Sony fans, or a bunch of old fucks who are still bitter that Doom and arena shooters fell from grace?

So what? Boomers hate everything they didn't grow up with. If you actually listen to their retarded opinions on things you'll end up a miserable faggot like them and hate everything. I once fell into the "boomer" mindset when I was younger and more impressionable until realizing there's a very large and outspoken group of trolls on here who shit on anything new or popular regardless of quality. Just because old bitter people hated something over a decade ago doesn't make it bad and you shouldn't let people like that choose which games you play.

>bullet sponge enemies
Stopped reading right there, you clearly don't know anything about halo.
On legendary difficulty, you can kill most weak enemies in one shot, elites in two (plasma pistol + headshot), and regular brutes in a couple of headshots. The only difficult ones are the shielded brutes, but there are very few of those in the entire game.

It has always been a simple campaign of you playing as dude in green suit against improbable odds playing coop with your friends. The muiltiplayer was never meant to be competitive but a fun past time you did when you got off of work or school to play splitscreen with your buddy's. Tired of you PC and PS fags ruining Halo by false flagging the game.

>ridiculously high TTK.
that's just Halo 3
CE and 2 MP aren't damage sponge memefests

>>every weapon except gravity hammer, energy sword and explosives are useless
what game are you playing?

>didn't grow up with halo
>try it now on MCC
>post questions and critiques on them
>halo fans immediately jump down your throat spamming "zoomer" and "sony drone"
Why can't we just have a normal conversation?
