Halo has never copied a single game before!!

Games Other Halo

Hello my friends. I would like to inform you once more. Seeing how COD invented WAR. I would like to inform you of more video game history.

Along the time when Call of Duty was brain washing several thousand school districts of war to breed a new level of stupid child, who would have never existed in the early 90’s. There was another huge game. Halo. Yes Halo:CE. Which was another huge AAAA title of total originality.

For those who don’t know, and this is a huge controversy between COD historians and Halo Historians, but many believe Halo may have INVENTED FPS games in general. Most likely on the break of the year 2000, When gaming was finally 3D and well made and totally original.

Yet some people just don’t know how original Halo is. So let me tell you what it did

1-Invented First Person Shooters

2-Two weapons only. Something no other game had before it. Infact most games had 1000+ weapon limits, infinite ammo, and GOD mode all in one

3-The only FPS game to have online play (PC).

4-The first game to have Arena style FFA/Slayer. Most games didn’t know how to pull this off

5-The first hightly super Competitive FPS (if not game) in the world

6-The first game to have hightly advanced Alien Races and Galactic viruses

7-The first game story to have Humans vs Alien vs Parasite. Totally never done before

8-Invented Halo. Trust me that “Ring World” book you hear of, copied Halo.

9-The first game to have Vehicles. Turrets and Rocket Launchers

10-And of course the first game to have a silent/semi silent protaganist who was strong, green, and had a mask on fighting enemies.

It’s a shame more Halo fans and video game fans can’t see how important this really is. It almost makes me want to cry

But Dude, How does this have anything to do with halo 4

Halo 4 is going to fail. It’s copying too many things that Halo has never done before. Such as Duel Wielding and Boarding, all totally never used in any game in the world before traits. Now Load Outs and AA’s and such are just turning Halo into a huge copy cat.

Halo needs to be original again. Has to stop adapting and evoloving video games. Because as we ALL know. Halo and any good game never takes the ideas of popular and/or good games and turns them better. That’s stupid. A good game always makes its own path.

Yes this is a joke. Overall, Stop saying Halo 4 is turning into games and that Halo1,2,3 are any more original or not. Infact Halo copied many games before it. Yet overall made them either better, or casual enough where we loved it. Halo 4 will be fine. It copies ideas such as any game does, movie, song, books, all entertainment is connected. It happens. Sorry

Unreal Tournament is a great template base for CE., just look at those gametypes ;)…

Stephen Spielberg invented CoD by inspiring Medal of Honor.

You forgot to mention that Halo actually invented all video games, and the idea of hostile aliens, as well as the setting of the future for an FPS. It also paved the way for all shooters to follow by adding the mechanic of “Aiming” which had never been done before.

Tell me one good reason why you had to pour more gasoline into the flames. If you don’t agree with what people say, the last thing you should do is to joke at their expense. If you really feel like you need to talk about your issue, please, do it in a civilized manner and actually try to do something about it. You obviously think differently than other people, good for you, but you don’t need to insult them about their way of thinking.

thank you, but coming up with perfectly fresh ideas for games isnt easy, and honestly using other ideas from other games has always been around.

Well actually… there were many PC online shooters around at the time of Halo: CE PC’s release. Many of them had vehicles and rocket launchers…

As a PC gamer my thoughts exactly.

Now onto a few of the other points.

6-The first game to have hightly advanced Alien Races and Galactic viruses

Warhammer 40,000 says hello. (Albiet 40K is the grand-daddy of much of the modern themes involving “Space Marines”. Everyone has taken something from it over the years so I’m not sure if its rightly fair to mention it. You can’t do anything anymore without 40K likely doing it first.)

7-The first game story to have Humans vs Alien vs Parasite. Totally never done before

Is this just satire on your part? Genestealers used to just infect whatever. Hell the Xenomorphs did too right if we wanted to go back further into movies.

TC if you really want to label Halo as doing something “first” and doing it so well it became an industry standard its the concept of regenerating “health”. Although in Halo: Combat Evolved it was the shield system. Since then the concept of a shield or health or both that regenerates over time has become a key feature of most modern shooters.

It has never copied bad games before.

He’s kidding. The entire post in and of itself is satirical.

Heh, I’m glad you added “this is a joke” to that post. Was gonna say Starcraft did the “The first game story to have Humans vs Alien vs Parasite. Totally never done before”.

Not sure if guy above me being quoted realizes its a joke post or not.
