Not me, although I do think it is overrated. Still someone alert Rik so he can go and spam Eurogamer with the infamous Halo 3 Edge innovation award picture.

Like many games, justified to those who like it and overrated to those who don't.

Oddly he likes it but doesn't "get" it so doesn't hate it at al.

:lol:

That's the best thing I've ever read on Eurogamer.

He doesn't really hate the games.

I'm in pretty same boat as him. I don't know what's going on in the Halo games. :lol: :fp:

It's a fair enough article - I played ODST this year and never really knew who I was or what I was doing (apart from heading towards waypoints and shooting aliens).

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

I actually hope this becomes a regular feature on Eurogamer. Some games don't seem to get an criticism, so it will be good to see why certain people don't like a certain popular game. Imagine they will do one on GT5 at some point. :lol:

Rick Castle? Buck? Dr Adam Mayfair? Joey Buchanan? Alex Tully? Kevin Callis? Caleb? Private Ryan(the wrong one)? Or the majestic and sexy Captain Malcolm Reynolds?

Google tells me he is a man called Nathan Fillon and he's been in a bunch of stuff I haven't seen. I did watch a bit of Buffy back in the day, but I don't recall a Caleb character...

After reading the article it doesn't sound like he hates Halo - in actual fact he's somewhat a fan of the series. I'm surprised Eurogamer/the author named the article "Why i hate Halo" because to be honest, after reading it, it comes across more like "The one thing i dislike about Halo". I do agree with him to be honest. I don't think the story/story telling in the majority of Halo games are that great.

I can understand his point of view. Also, Suz you obsession with Nathan Fillion is getting quite out of hand for a grown man and is frankly rather worrying.

It's cocktail time!. Then again when isn't it.

Nope. I played Medal Of Honour: Frontline on the PS2 though.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.
