Halo

Overall: Rarely do games possess the ability to transcend their genre and appeal to a wide variety of gamers. Halo has this ability. Being that I am not a fan of First Person Shooters (FPS), I was skeptical of Halo. But after reading all the favorable reviews and falling victim to the hype, I gave in and purchased it. All I have to say is that Halo did not disappoint. Everything from the never faltering frame rate to the intriguing story verified what everyone was saying.

Despite the great single player story that is sure to entertain for hours especially if you have the desire to play through the 4 difficulty levels. Halo’s lasting appeal comes from its multiplayer capability. There are over 13 different multiplayer maps with over 25 different games ranging from the classic dead match scenarios to tag to a rally racing event. Plus sniping your friend from across the screen or killing them with a head shot never gets old unless your the one getting shot in the head.

Gameplay: The first thing I noticed is the responsiveness of the controls. It’s almost like Microsoft built the controller for Halo. Controller acrobatics is not an issue as everything is well laid out and the trigger button makes an excellent firing button. Your squad of Marines is beneficial to you instead of being a nuisance. They make your job a lot easier by killing off enemies in different parts of the screen or by distracting them while you flank them from the side.

Graphics: Impressive. Even with several aliens on the screen exchanging fire the frame rates never slowed. The character animations are fluid from switching and reloading weapons to climbing into and out of the vehicles. The environments are expansive and look amazing.

Audio: The sound is great and sets the mood nicely. It amazes me that the characters respond to what’s happening in the game. For example, if you are in a room with a grunt and shoot from multiple places he will scream, “They’re everywhere!” and Marines talk smack to the enemies.

Suggestions: I would like to see the inclusion of bots for the multiplayer scenarios. I would like to see some more variety for the indoor environment; walk down hall come to dead-end turn and walk down another hall until you come to another dead-end gets really repetitive. Also, the mission objectives need to be defined more clearly.

Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
