Which Halo Is The Best Halo?

Game Informer - It's a simple question. Which Halo game is the best Halo game? Obviously, the original Halo holds a special place in every Halo fan's heart. I had a permanent LAN setup exclusively for Halo at my house. My parents really loved all the late night yelling matches that accompanied every match.

The first Halo is the best. When the flood came into play it changed it from a simple game to a classic game. Hang em High created a lot of memorable moments for my friends and I.

IronFistChinMi4183d ago

That's probably still my favourite moment in all the Halo games, but I prefer H3 overall.

xursz4183d ago

Halo4 is the best I'll be playing it come midnight tonight.

HarryMasonHerpderp4183d ago

Yeah Halo 1 is easily the best game, everything was epic and I loved the story.
Halo 2 is a close second though for me.

IAMERROR4183d ago

Too much backtracking IMO, Halo 3 has to be my favorite. Awesome campaign, amazing multiplayer, and great forge (at the time). All the Halos are quite good imo

konnerbllb4183d ago

I think I played more Halo 2 multiplayer than any of the others. Good times, good maps and good mechanics.

Captain Qwark 94183d ago (Edited 4183d ago )

for me its.....

multiplayer:
1. halo 2
2. halo CE
3. halo 3
4. reach

singleplayer:
1. halo 3
2. halo CE
3. halo 2
4. reach

so in conclusion, as a total package, halo CE. as multiplayer only, Halo 2. as single player only, halo 3.

ill find out where halo 4 lands tonight but from the vids it looks like it may take number one in both spots and overall, just depends on if it can beat halo 2's legendary maps, only game ive ever played where every map was good and it had headlong

krautgamer4183d ago

halo ce didn´t even have multiplayer...

Captain Qwark 94183d ago

@krautgamer

what are you talking about lol???? it had system link and splitscreen and its mp was huuuuuuuuuuge. they even remade some of its maps for halo 2, including one of its most popular maps of all blood gulch

Slugg3r4183d ago

Oh the good times when me and my buddies used to play Halo 4 players splitscreen on a 26" tv. All the controller cords were so tangled, that we had about foot of a cord each (thank god for the wireless controllers novadays). We had a blast despite all this though.

@krautgamer

Halo CE on the PC was the first Halo to have online multiplayer.

Captain Qwark 94183d ago

@slugg

i hear ya lol except we went all out, not just 4 players. halo was pretty big around where im from. we had 4 tvs, 4 xbox's and 4 peeps per tv almost once a month from the time it came out until halo 2 lol despite the crappy amount of work it was to set up and pissed off parents from the noise and chords but it was all worth it lol

at least i think thats what we did, according to kraut it didnt even have mp so i could be just imagining all those times

awi59514182d ago

@ krautgamer lol

Yeah i had a ethernet hub and me and my friends had 16 player matches every sunday it was so kick ass. My buddie had 2 tv's set up i had the xbox computer monitor converter and we turned the 2 LCD monitors into Tv's for the other 8 to play on.

For me, so far it's the first Halo. I still haven't played Halo 4 yet so writing a "Which Halo Is The Best Halo? article is a few days per-mature.

Will let you know in a few days once I finish Halo 4.

MYSTERIO3604182d ago

For those of you how think halo 4 isn't the best in the series why not?????????????

Hueynewton20124183d ago

LMAO i was say the same thing, cuz all the Halo games are exactly the same LOL. Fucking pathetic series.

awi59514177d ago (Edited 4177d ago )

And metal gear is all cut scenes lol. Also it has the most convoluted story of all time.

The importance of audio: How music makes games better

How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?

Well, 4-Infinite dropped the ball massively so don't worry.

Sgt_Slaughter59d ago (Edited 59d ago )

Not really. 4, 5, MCC, and Infinite are only remembered for their shortcomings and failures when the franchise was purely known for being a system seller and an all-time great. There's a reason 1, 2, 3, and Reach are looked back on fondly, and it's not because of nostalgia.

FinalFantasyFanatic59d ago

I don't know of anyone that speaks fondly of the later Halo games, I would like to play 5, but I know it's not good, and I'm just waiting on Infinite to hit my strike price. I played MCC a lot later after it came out, so must of those bugs/issues were gone by the time I played it.

PhillyDonJawn59d ago (Edited 59d ago )

To say it dropped the massively is just not true. Many in the community hold H5 as the best mp mechanics in the entire series and say its what 4 should've been. Its campaign was trash but the MP is Fantastic and many faces of the community still play today and it only made 500mill in the matter of months but sure it dropped the ball massively. 4 was hated due to all the changes at once. And CoD like feature and rightful get hate but it's campaign story was liked by a majority of ppl. 343 hasn't nailed ot 100% but they get 1 thing perfect but F up in other places. Infinite had a good campaign and design but the story was a mess. The MP improves upon what Halo 3 was and is what many ppl wanted to go back to but it lacked content severely. So massively aint the word. Dropping the ball massively is when it's pure trash and unplay/unenjoyable. Most ppl blind by nostalgia so soon as 1 thing aint the same its hated cause Halo set the bar so high
FYI reach was not that good.

Dead IP, time to invent something new.

kaos8959d ago

Maybe they can have ID or one of the COD studios help 343 with this series.

jznrpg59d ago

Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
