BlackThornn is on a distinguished road
Halo was a great game. ...but it was not the best FPS I'd played, especially now that Unreal Tournament 2003 is on the table.. (..it's not even the graphical king any more!). I don't laugh when I hear about that "Game of the Year" thing. I actually get pissed. Halo was GREAT, but it wasn't the best that the year had to offer. >_>

In less than a month I'd put Halo back on the game shelf.. that's not what a GOTY game should be doing.

If they'd taken advantage of what they could ACTUALLY do with the Xbox and make more missions like that one where it shows the coastal flyby of the dropships first.. I forgot the mission name.. but it's got a whole bunch of marines going along with you. If they'd made more missions more like that, and gone with a little more origionality in the plot, then it would have been a MUCH better game than it was.


And, to add a final touch of randomness to this post.. ladies and gentlemen... the list...

1) Unreal Tournament 2003
2) Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
3a) Halo
3b) Red Faction 2


Complete afterthought! Here's a quote from a PS2 Fanboy on the Neoseeker forums:
