Late last night I installed the original Halo for PC on this computer. BIG mistake. I’m wasting so much time playing the game now that I don’t know if I’ll get anything done today. Frankly, I forgot how much fun Halo was. Halo 1 for Xbox was the only game in years that I’ve had the patience to sit through to the end. Now that I’m playing all the levels again (with the better pc graphics), I’m having an absolute blast.
I’m not as big of a fan of Halo 2 for Xbox. It’s a good game. It’s a fun game. There’s more to do in multiplayer (as Evil James and I found out last time we killed each other), BUT the story and the levels are a letdown. They’re over the top and mindless. They’re fun to play, mind you, but they’re not as intimate as those on the first game. It’s much like Austin Powers 2 compared to Austin Powers 1 or Return of the Jedi compared to Star Wars. Bigger, badder, more stuff to do … but not as satisfying as the original.
Rut-roh, I think I’m addicted. The game is calling to me now. Someone send help, please! I need multiplayer!
