How many of you were Halo Players before Destiny? CoD Players?

Halo

2701

Call of Duty

1109

Other

806

Just would like to shoot this out for an experiment. I'd like to know what you guys played before Destiny came out! If you played both, which one did you play more? EDIT: A cheeky Guardian has decided to necrobump this post, and has now caused me great distress. I've formed a multitude of ulcers in the last 15 minutes. But I still am curious, even though it's been months- so the post is here to stay.

    I started with halo CE. When halo 2 came out with multiplayer, I used the name I created for offline play for online not knowing this will Carry over and follow me. I am known as spartin83 in xbl since then.

  • Only FPS I played online were on PC, Counter-strike since 2000 Unreal Tournament Quake 3 Before Destiny I was sure FPS wasn't for me on console, it's the 'RPG' part that made me take the bait.

    • haven't played halo since the second one. never really played COD. tried a few but wasn't my thing. i have been a Battlefield player since Bad Company 2. i prefer the extra physics. it was my go to FPS until BF4 needed a case of raid to play.

      I'm going to say other. While I used to be a Halo player, I fell out of interest and found myself playing Indie games on the PC more often than anything else. This is mostly because the FPS genre had begun to feel stale, but also because Indie developers take bigger risks since they do not have a publisher breathing down their back

      Voted other, but I've played both, and more. I'll play almost any shooter, ever since doom & quake. Love em. I didn't play a lot of pvp, though. Only occasionally, and only because of a friend or family member. Destiny is the first game that I've played pvp without prompting.

      I played both almost equally. I played Halo over a longer time period but with less frequency. I had several friends that were into COD. Honestly, I didn't really use those to put a benchmark on Destiny though. Many of the elements I noticed were similar to Borderlands. In the end, for me at least, it still bears a greater similarity to that than Halo or COD.

    • Played both but Halo a lot more. I was in the MLG scene since Halo 2. CoD I played competitively as well but only on Gamebattles.

      If only there was a both option... But anyways I played multiple Halo and COD games and greatly enjoyed both franchises. My very first console was the original Xbox that I played Halo CE on, but I then switched to PC and played COD4 and WoW. I then later switched to the PS3 but then got an Xbox 360 which i played Halo (Halo 3, Reach, Halo 4) & COD (MW3, BO, BO2) on up until now. Now I have a PS4. It has been a long road. Right now I'm enjoying Crucible in Destiny a ton, it's all I play right now really.

    • Bought my xbox to play Halo and loved it. Then switched to COD when MW2 came out and played nothing but that until Destiny. Thanks to Destiny I have no desire to play or buy Advanced Warfare. I will probably get Halo MCC though for the nostalgia factor :) Halo LAN parties were always a fun time!

    • Started out in CoD, switched to BF. BF4 was broken, never got into it. Went to NFS:Rivals after that until Destiny released.

      Played halo 2 only half the campaign in co-op at a friend's place. (Halo is an okay franchise) Played COD4 (which was good) and MW2 (which was meh). Did have some after that, but i hate the games. I was more into Socom (PS2), Killzone, BF and M.A.G. Edit: talking about shooters specifically. Got a pretty varied games library

        • My daughter and I played co-op thru the first Halo start to finish. She was 9 at the time and because of that it's my most memorable video game ever. I'm 54 and have been playing since pong. We still write "RH" on cards (B-day, Xmas, etc.) for "Remember Halo". I played COD 2 all the way through on veteran. I was "Snot Bubble" on Quake 2 and 3 and was hooked bad on capture the flag. TONS of other great video game memories as well. For me, anyway, Destiny is shaping up well.

        • I played the Halo series from its start. I joined XBL in 2007 and started playing H3 online at that time. I played Halo primarily but played CoD with a few friends. I switched to CoD right before Reach was released and played that up to the present.

          • CE to H3 are amongst the best games I have played in over two decades of gaming.
