    Very awesome game! The original pistol & sniper rifle combo were absolutely the best! you have a short- mid range pistol which had a scope on it, so you can zoom in and own your enemy or switch to your sniper rifle if need be. The maps were obviously original and fun - the game had a few reportable bugs that couldnt be fixed but overall the game had limitless replayability.

    Yeah, there is nothing too interesting about this game. The graphics are good for a game from 2001, but it is also too short.(1- 2 days to beat) There are only like 10 missions, each taking roughly 30mins-1hr. and it gets kind of boring just shooting aliens 100 percent of the time. Right as the game started becoming interesting, it abruptly ended, spewing end credits down my screen. I wish they could've let you use the vehicles alot more. I was thinking about buying Halo 2 this weekend, but I don't think it will be worth the money. Maybe I will rent it first.

    Since when does a pistol have a scope? they made the pistol like a battlerifle in Halo 1. If you throw sticky grenades it looks like the masterchief is throwing like 100 miles per hour or somthing. Kingdom Hearts is better so get that game.

    halo is just a great all around game. i mean who doesnt love shooting aliens with a sniper while there totally oblivious to there soon to be doom. but the thing that makes this game a instant classic is that the storyline is so amazing that your interested in it to the very end. i give this game a 5 out of 5 and who wouldnt.

    before the xbox was popular, this is why people bought it, and it could have been called the halo box

    One of the most revolutionary games ever for XboX, with very creative storyline and gameplay.

    Great game, the reason I bought an xbox, and I wasnt disappointed. The flood are one of the most annoying enemies you will ever encounter on a game like this. Played for 2 days solid and beat the game on every difficulty. Im not a nerd, just shows you how good the game must have been for me to do that

    I just don't get what the fuss about this game is. It's entertaining in short bursts and all that, but if I really want to play a good FPS, I'll fire up my PC.

    Halo 1 was amazing. I'd say the only reason to buy an Xbox.

    Halo 1 (for its time) was the best game!!! It had all the kick-ass stuff, and the weapons were awesome!!! The assault rifle, the pistol.....ETC., they were all AWESOME!!! I loved the different environments that there were in Halo 1, and I likes the way it was all put together. The little glitch at the end of the game with Halo exloding made me laugh too (hey, it was 2001 computer graphics, not 2004 computer graphics...a lot can change in 3 years graphic-wise). It was a really fun game, and it still is, even compared with HALO 2!!! Now, Halo 2 (in my opinion) is the only game that beats Halo 1 because they are both AWESOME!!! Halo 2 is cool (just like its father, HALO 1)

    Halo, in terms of ease of play controlwise, and also in single and multiplayer options and play, is the greatest game ever created, those who have tried it must also agree.

    Halo was not only the best fps for Xbox but probably ever. Anyone who complains about, say, the cheapness of ceartain weapons doesn't know how to use their counters and is a huge n00b. Halo is not only a decent single player campaign, but has the most balanced multi-player scenarios ever.

    It was a good game and certainly the best game out for the first two months or so, but there are far better choices. The controls were difficult to get accustomed to and some of the weapons could've been 'dulled-down' in cheapness. Single player is entertaining and multi player gets old very fast.

    By far the best game ever made for any gaming system. It has an awesome campaign and you can get some killer multi-players going. I can't wait for Halo 2.

    This game is distinctly OK. I enjoyed playing it all of the way through and am not here to bash it in any way, but it really isnt a patch on any number of PC games like Half-Life, Unreal, RTCW, MOHAA etc. All in all excellent for a console game but all of this talk about 'ground-breaking' and 'awesome' really does take the biscuit. You should enjoy playing it but if you are used to PC gaming then you will probably be a little disappointed, like me.

    Fun, but overrated. Great for a console fps, but doesn't compare to some pc fps's.

    Really good but becomes a little bit of a drag when you have to start back tracking through levels. The twist midway is pretty cool but I would have rather had more out door levels and interaction with other marines than just fighting the flood by yourself. The battle scenes between the flood and the covenant are the most amazing things i've ever seen on console or pc and the vehicles are slick as hell. I think that Halo is a very good (but not great) game and I'm really looking forward to Halo 2.
