PC Shooters You Should Play Instead of Halo Reach

The new Halo game comes out in five days, and those jerks over in Player Affinity’s XBox department won’t shut up about their little space opera. I’m happy that the console crowd have their new game, but those of us who play games on the PC know that first person shooters were intended to be played with a keyboard, mouse and four gigs of VRAM. To help my fellow PC gamers shrug off the relentless Halo hype machine, I’m going to remind everyone of a few PC exclusive shooters that you can play, while your XBox pals are waiting in line to get their copy of Halo Reach. We’ll be detailing one game a day, right up to Halo launch day on Tuesday.

Already playing it, still want Halo Reach though. Sounds like whoever wrote this is trying to be an ass or is compensating for something. Halo has interesting gameplay you can't get elsewhere. You can play both. I think most PC players hopping on Halo for a little bit would realize it's not all about having good aim and they would lose to the better players. Have fun tying to play splitscreen Crysis. The resulting fire should light up the sky nicely.

he sounds like an elitist snob, enjoy your superior games my king while us peons gravel before your feet.

poopnscoop4985d ago

More or less this.

I'm not sure what's more laughable --the shittieness of their web site, the shittieness of their writing or the fact that they pretend like they actually have multiple departments instead of a bunch of nerds sitting around their laptops.

TheIneffableBob4985d ago

Yup, this is the exact reaction the author intended to get.

These types of articles are meant to rile up discussion and get hits.

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

Sgt_Slaughter75d ago (Edited 75d 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.

FinalFantasyFanatic74d 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.

PhillyDonJawn74d ago (Edited 74d 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.

kaos8975d ago

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

jznrpg75d ago

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