beepWhen the game franchise you used to love keeps going downhill, and you realize it is finally time to let it go
NOT_RICKHalo. Still holding out a sliver of hope that something cool in the universe will be made one day.
OldQWERTYbastardHalo was DoA for me after growing up with twitchy PC shooters like Unreal Tournament, Quake and Starsiege Tribes. The gameplay was glacially slow compared to what I was used to, but it did usher in online multiplayer to the console masses.
I really loved that about halo. The slower TTK makes for more chess like engagements, well with the exception of eating a shotty or a rocket to the face. Still, bouncing a perfect grenade or pulling off a ninja jump just feels so satisfying
