It probably should be a little clunky being WWII, and the 1940’s: there aren’t any plasma guns in this one and there don’t need to be.īattlefield 1942 is also worth a mention in the WWII FPS genre. Not as slick and smooth as Halo, but that’s not what you’d expect it to be. I know it’s cliché - WWII had been done to death by film and novel before video games became popular in the 80’s, but this game also delivers action and a very solid game experience that flows from battle to battle.

People have called it “intense,” and you get well-rendered weapons, sounds, language and uniforms, and authentic maps based on actual epic WWII battles. It’s a different brand, a great brand, and you’ll quickly see why it has also won awards. It’s no wonder the Halo multiplayer demo is still popular online even after all these years.Ĭall of Duty is another classic award-winning game series, and also with good reason. I have logged hours and hours on this game-probably in the hundreds of hours, and it’s as fun as any game out there, and with the added benefit that you’re not stuck playing the against the computer and it’s AI. But this is just part of it-you add to this a variety of fully-equipped vehicles, jeeps with guns and the fun really starts happening, and I’m not even mentioning the freaky menace of aliens that you encounter along the way. The science fiction back story of the Covenant and sprawling maps combined with stunning graphics make for a jaw-dropping immersive video game experience in the single player mission mode also. Start with single player, then later try online matches or even a LAN party with your friends. Most of the fun stems from the fact that the multiplayer online matches unfold in ways that you can never predict, and you always get actual human beings at the other end of the controls, and that is almost always entertaining. If you haven’t tried playing Halo yet, maybe you should try it. It is an exceptionally well-made, fun and great game. It’s a favorite of many a console player (think Microsoft’s Xbox) as well as PC and MAC players, and for good reason.

Without mentioning other games that have entered the market (such as Gears of War which I hear is also great) Halo has been around for years, and it is a staple of college campuses, dorms, bedrooms, basements, family consoles and gaming cafes.
