Editorial Reviews:
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.

Voted Game Of The Year by IGN.com, Electonic Gaming Monthly, and Xbox Magazine.
Customer Rating: Summary: great game fast delivery Comment: better than 2 or 3 order 2 days latter i'm playing it on my 360 Customer Rating: Summary: Breaking the mold Comment: Ok, I admit that I refused to play this for a long time due to all the hype about it, especially on live. I regret that now. Halo is one of the best FPS games ever.
I was a little confused & perturbed trying to operate a warthog the first time as the controls can take alotta getting uesd to. But ultimately being able to drive or man one of 2 gunner stations is cool. Adds a bit of reality you don't usually see, most games you drive & man the gun so to speak, whereas if you wanna drive then you have to rely on the marine behind you to shoot whatever he sees fit & it's not always what you might like for him to kill or if you elect to shoot then you have to trust the marine driving not crash you. Though that can be a bit.... tedious as he often rolls the vehicle.
The other thing that kinda annoyed me was the lack of intelligence of your allies, which is remedied in Halo 2 & then 3 & ODST Customer Rating: Summary: The game that started it all Comment: Halo. One of the most popular shooter series of all time. And this is where it started, Halo: Combat Evolved for the XBox. It might not have the cutting edge graphics and combat as if successors and games of today, but this is the OG. Don't hate. Appreciate! Customer Rating: Summary: Halo Review Comment: Classic game. Very fun game, but even better to play with friends in multiplayer/co-op. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Game!!! A true classic!!! Comment: This is the game that started it all!! Great game that was one of the first FPS to have success on consoles.
