In the second entry for The Perfect Level, Game Revolution dives deep into Halo: Combat Evolved's second level and shows you how it elevated the FPS genre to a new height.
Remember the days of four-player couch co-op? The Wealth of Geeks team certainly does. This list brings us back to the golden years of the original Xbox with the best four-player games that were available.
Have you ever looked at a modern first-person shooter and wondered "How did we get here?" Wealth of Geeks performs a deep dive into the genre, including some of the most influential games, from the very first FPS from the cross-genre experiences that changed the game entirely.
GF365: "I'd advise against reading this article if you just had your lunch. Here are the most disgusting enemies in games."
The Callisto Protocol has some gross ones as did the Doom, Dead Space, and Quake games.
That had to be one of the worst list I have ever seen.. The flood from Halo makes the list? Left for dead? Terrible list… they didn’t even mention silent hill or Bloodborne. Obviously they haven’t played too many games.
I think the best levels in Halo:CE are The Silent Cartographer, Halo and The Maw. Halo helped pave the way for broader levels in console FPSs.

Not so much nowadays
That was a great level. To be honest the best levels were against the covenant, the flood kinda turn the rest of the game into generic corridor shooter.
I remember going into Gamestop as a kid and playing The Silent Cartographer level as my first Xbox experience, I was blown away at the graphics and how fun of a shooter it was! I had a PS2 at the time and there was not anything else like Halo at the time on console. Will always remember that!
I was hooked as soon as the second level started when you were the only survivor of the crash and had to hidden from the scouts.
