  • For me, theres just no game like halo. Even halo 4 with it barrowing the perk system and unlock system....ordnance...I didnt love every feature but it still had that main core shield role that I only find in a halo game to the best of my gaming knowledge. If you know of a game with it, I'm all ears and I'm down to try it. The way the shields, grenades and weapons work make me feel this way. Is there any other game where you are trading shot for shot with percision weapons until you burst the shield and get a head shot? Thats a prime example. I mean...thats what you're doing the entire match. No other game feels that way or has that function of shields and combat that I know of. As far as it being over rated...well someone can honestly think that way about anything. And as far as the whole "generic" feeling goes, games borrow from each other. Can't really help it, its like technology. It grows off each others concepts and they try to not end up like samsung and apple at war in the legal system. Perfect example... How much you want to bet that most gamers who've played street fighter. ...fire up some new game they've never played before that's also a fighting game...and press down right fierce on their controller to see if a special move activates? [spoiler]not referring to games that move in a 3 d environment of space like tekken[/spoiler] Most times it does activate a special move. This was a normal thing in lots of old fighters that tried to compete with street fighter. Most were of course overshadowed though by the capcom giant. [spoiler]if im mistaken and street fighter wasn't the first to use that input command I'm sorry, but the point I'm trying to make is still applicable everything I'm saying [/spoiler] Kinda could be seen as a -"generic" input command for a special move right? Or like the games just some "generic" fighter game.As long as the game has enough shit to differentiate it though, I think people don't mind it. Just saying...I wonder if anyone ever thinks about that.

  • It can be a bit overrated, yeah. And 343i has good story at least. :D

  • Because it is at this point. The first 3 were different than what was around at the time, Reach began to show it was becoming stale, and 4 just killed it.
