Bent on humankind's extermination, a powerful fellowship of alien races known as the Covenant is wiping out the Earth's fledgling interstellar empire. You and the other surviving defenders of a devastated colony-world make a desperate attempt to lure the alien fleet away from Earth. Shot down and marooned on the ancient ring-world, Halo, you begin a guerilla-war against the Covenant. Fight for humanity against an alien onslaught as you race to uncover the mysteries of Halo.
Halo takes you deep into the future, with the fate of planet Earth hanging on your shooting skills. After a massive battle, only one ship is left and its crew is stranded on an abandoned space station. You must do whatever it takes to keep the Covenant from reaching Earth.
Experience the ultimate Halo challenge with all-new online multiplayer for up to 16 players. Take on the world in any of the 15 multiplayer maps including 6 brand new maps never before seen. Unleash destruction with incredible weapons and vehicles including brand new armaments for intense online multiplayer games. Voted Game Of The Year by IGN.com, Electonic Gaming Monthly, and Xbox Magazine.

Summary: A standard-setter
Comment: Much like the N64's Goldeneye and the PC's Half-Life and Rainbow Six, Halo is one of those yardstick first-person shooters that people will be comparing games to for years to come.
That's not to say the game is without its faults. Some levels are very repetitive - gee, I've only been down this corridor or one that looks just like it FIFTEEN TIMES! - and the allied AI is downright frustrating sometimes. There are some other minor things that get on my nerves, but they're relatively minor.
That said, Halo is one of my favorite shooters ever. Enemy AI is top-notch, especially on the harder difficulties, and the outdoor environments are amazing, particularly the beach level and the snow valley. The weapons are varied and, amazingly, are all useful. Also, the plot, while a little on the thin side, is engaging. I especially love Cortana, the wisecracking AI that accompanies the player throughout the game (truly, the little voice inside your head).
If you're looking for a very good first-person shooter, Halo is a great choice.

Summary: Halo
Comment: Halo is by far the best game ever made.
I'm not really into video games at all, but now I'm in Iraq so I got little else to do. But I just wanted to let everyone else know even with all the new games and systems, this one shouldnt be forgotten

Summary: Halo Forever!
Comment: Halo is perhaps one of the best games in history! At first I played it at a friend's house and then I decided to buy it. Halo is not as good as Halo 2, but has some advantages that Halo 2 doesn't, such as weapons. The Graphics are very realistic and it feels very intense. Lots of Weapons such as, Assault Rifles, Snipers, Rocket Launchers, Pistols, Plasma Pistols, Plasma Rifles, Needlers and Grenades! And lots of Enemies such as, Grunts, Elites, Jackles, Hunters, and the Flood! Halo is just really fun!
