Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the original Halo, but no more than any other bog-standard FPS out there.
And when compared to PC FPS titles, it's really nothing special at all.
By the way DB, if you liked the concept and thought it would make a great book, I believe Halo borrowed heavily from Larry Niven's "Ringworld" books.

For the record, I thought H2 was a bit poor in game play and story.
No hate for Halo here....just baiting a fan boi.

Interesting review from
Ars Technica too:
This is competent console FPS action served lukewarm, with a hint of heat and flavor here and there. To put it succinctly, the single-player experience of Halo 3 is solid and well made, but unremarkable.
Nice to see
some journalists out there with integrity.

If you dont think an improved game, with more features, screenshot and demo functions etc etc is going to take over, you really are living in a dream world.

1- Halo 2
2 -Gears of War
3 - Hexic HD
4 - Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas
5 - Call of Duty 3
6 - Call of Duty 2
7 - Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2
8 - Elder Scrolls: Oblivion
9 - Crackdown
10 - PGR3
When you think about it... The number one game played on XBL is still not a 360 game?

No it wasent, the books came around the same time as the first halo, and halo was first ment to be a RTS game like the upcominh Halo wars..
