Halo: Combat Evolved

Halo: Combat Evolved - Xbox

Pros Cons
Tight controls  
Just plain fun  
Amazing visuals  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
space warrior versus aliens galore


You are a space suit-armored green warrior with several guns against a whole bunch of ugly and deadly aliens (the Covenant). Looks like fun. They stand in the way of you gaining control of a large mysterious ring located in space in this first person shooter. The story is told wonderfully in this action fest. You have fellow unarmored that speak to you as you meet them. Sometimes they join you on drives in jeeps and tanks throughout the game. You have the freedom to use the vehicle as a weapon here too. Alien road kill As the game progresses the mystery seems to rise and fall. The sound of guns firing, aliens "speaking" and explosions fill the air. This game is full of well paced action. It includes surprises and tension. The splendid graphics only enhance this game. It is a world that you can travel throughout if the area is reachable. You land near a sea and gradually make your way into the Covenant base The aliens range from a small orange squealer to a large and fearsome armored spiked foe. You can blast several of those small guys in a few seconds. The larger enemies will require more patience and care. The enemies actually are smart. They looked for you after they see you as if they have a plan. If they drop weapons you can pick those up and use it on their makers. The heat seeking needlier is nice. The enemies have tricks of their own too. Some are invisible. The gameplay is great in Halo. You can fire with abandon at your foes but it would be wise to find cover and pick your attacks. This is one long single player game. The multiplayer provides fun afterwards too. You can join with friends in different types of matches and try to kill each other in differently colored armors. This is a full game.

This has so much to offer and is a star among games.

Sorry to say this here, but would people stop saying "just plain fun" on these user reviews, please. It gets really annoying just seeing it every time. Just come up with something new like, "fun all around" or some thing else. It can't be that hard to figure out.
