Halo

Well in COD4 multiplayer, people do know every corner of the map by the time a beginner plays the game, so you better develop a good play soon before some guy snipes you from the other side of the map, or a grenade that so happens to land in your direction from people who guessed where you are from experience.

I rented Halo 2 a long time ago just to see why everyone was so obsessed with it. Needless to say, I was so severely disappointed that I took it back two hours later. I'm in the same boat with GM45 in that I prefer real guns in the present.

I mean, the guns aside, Halo has a real good story no doubt about that, it's very engaging. Just the combat just seems to be designed by fanboys of first person shooters and not realism. I hope the new Halo game, ODST, where it isn't about a massive one many arm has more realism.

The story didn't really engage me, either.

But if the new one turns out like you're hoping, I imagine I'll enjoy it more. Personally, I think if Bungi were to do a SOCOM-style Halo side game, they'd pull in quite a few fans.
