Wow. That is VERY VERY n00bish dude. Think before you say. Half Life came out in 1998. 3 years before Halo came out. So as KBell said, Halo is probably ripping from Half Life.

so your saying secret spies from the Half-life team, In mid-production of Half-life, secretly stole ideas from the Halo team, to create one of the best computer games of all time huh....

I never finished Half-life ... which is rare for me. I may go back to it, but kind of doubt it.

 

I know that HL is rated 'best FPS ever', but I liked both Deus Ex and Jedi Knight better. It is a cool enough game ... it just didn't grab me ...

Can't we all just get along. :rolleyes:

 

Um, yeah ,check out your story before you come in here and talk crap about a game that has won numerous awards in the PC gaming industry and set the bar for FPS games.

 

Halo is a joke compared to HL.

The reason why you NOW think HL is no big deal, is that a lot of features first seen in HL are very normal and commonly used now. Think about scripted sequences, NPCs that help you, story-driven gameplay (connected levels etc) etc.

 

A lot of games have stolen such features from HL. And HL is THE MOD gamel, no other game has had that many mods. And that's a feature of HL too you know...

Ok about that coment at the end about Halo. That is a joke because Halo is way better than Half-Life is. I know I'm going to get yelled at but it is the truth. Now Half-Life 2 is something along with Halo 2. You can't just say now that Halo is a joke compared to Halo because it is the new genre. Half-Life was good in it's day but compared to Halo now it is nothing. Also were talking about a Computer Game vs. a Console game which are diffrent at the moment since both aren't available on the opposite at the moment. The original Halo is going to soon be realeased on PC and is going to look beautiful on it. Plus now you are going to be able to play it with a mouse and a computer. Both Halo and Half-Life are revolutionary with what they have brought to the FPS genre. With Halo 2 and Half-Life we're going to see some pretty amazing gameplay and goodies. You just can't say that Halo is a joke compared to Half-Life cause that just shows you didn't play or read before posting that. I mean what Reclaimer said was absurd but that doesn't mean Halo is a joke.

 

Also how many games have their been were you fight Aliens? The first alien game came way before Half-Life did so you can't say Halo ripped off Half-Life when Half-life did it to another game. Half-Life just refined it and made it like no other just as Halo has now.

Oh c'mon! Both Halo and Half-Life have flaws and greatness. Halo is a kind of game, Half-Life is another. They're 2 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!! One man's meat is another man's poison.;)They shouldn't be compared. Half-Life is years old while Halo ain't.

If you are a RPG/RTS gamer, the FPS I'd recommend is Deus Ex ... and Jedi Knight 1. These are the FPS with the best RPG elements. New games like Jedi Academy and Deus Ex 2 will have RPG elements, but neither has what the older games offered. Apparently the market finds that level of role playing 'too hard' in a shooter ...

 

Half-Life is a good game, which you can get pretty cheap. There are many newer games you would be worse off getting ;)

You cant compare Half-Life with an X-Box game, it just doesnt fit. Now, when Halo comes out for the comp, THEN you STILL cant compare the two. The two were released on TOTALLY seprate dates. Its like comparing a Caveman's Technology, with Our's today! Just stick with comparing games released in the same century :rolleyes:

Half-Life was ok... It always spooked me out. I never did get very far. Maybe that's why I don't like it as much as other people seem to..

 

I'm interested in Half-Life 2 though... the graphics look amazing.. I'm just not sure I have the guts to play it :(

 

Ah well, I continue to push forward without a personal flagship game to rant about! How does my world continue to turn?
