nooooooo

halos multiplayer is far superior and you get nice friendly marines to help you out(or kill at your leasure) vheircles are always fun graphics are better.and if you like anoying sarcastic computer women then halo is the obvious choice _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Halo only wins of GFX, but Graphics don' make a game, as long as the gfx is at least Q2 quality then the graphics are fine to play with.
Multiplayer HL wins by far, HL's own multiplayer can b ok but there is loads of mods out there, also there is bots, so some servers can have nice bots to help u out. HL's community has produced alot of mods and contence, the result is that you get a HELL of a long playtime, after compleating the game there is loads of mods u can play, both offline and online.
HL's overall playability/fun level is WAY higher than halo. Halo single is one of the worst ever (only played the demo but that was enough to put me off the game), multi is ok, but too repetative, there is no fun in it, its just carnage, which repeates over n over. Unlike some HL mods, like Natural Selection, where u can get different games depending on who u play with, different strategys, u even feel like ur part of the team.
So as i said at the begining, Halo wins on GFX, but HL owns it on everything else.

When making polls its best to not vote ur self and to not put right or wrong answer, the reason for this is you get a better picture, you also arn't asking yourself, ur asking others, so voting urself distorts the votes. _________________ Free Map Editor - Game Requirements - Stucuk.Net QUICK_EDIT
You have program A and program B, they both work on a P10 1MB ram (yes this is a finctional crap pc), but program B needs more resources to run than program A, the specs(on the box) are identical, yet B still needs more.
Specs/System Requirments are a guidline, they are a rough estimate, you can actualy run programs on a pc that has a lower spec than the minimum requirements than the program is ment to need. _________________ Free Map Editor - Game Requirements - Stucuk.Net Last edited by stucuk on Wed Jun 02, 2004 9:56 pm; edited 1 time in total QUICK_EDIT

Ya HL has more problem solving, but I would think playing library in halo on legendary brings lots of problems to solve, like howto kill a hundred incoming flood battle forms with 200 assault rifle shots, and only 16 shots in your shot gun, along with only having plasma gernades. Also add a really bad player that has a tendincy to shoot you in the back more often than hitting the enemy.
I loved halo, I love the story, graphics are great, weapons are good, the melee attack is nice to have, AI was amazing IMO, and all of the various things the grunts will say are hilarious. Add on top the incredibly sarcastic Cortana make the game amazing. _________________

i hatd the library 1st time round coz at the end of the previous level i had stayed in the swapm to help the marines fight the flood. bad idea only i survived _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
horay for helfire. halo is better note:realistic yet brilliant weapons also there are no bad weapons unlike halflife, two types of aliens even 3 sometimes fighting eachother going all out with tanks and rocket launchers and guns and bombs and with their bare hands, the brilliant way blood splatters bodies fly grunts scream before you explode them, the limb destruction of flood armless corpses following you around,the way you jump eight feet into the air over a hulking armourd monstrosity with a huge gun and a bad temper and efortlessly put a single cap in its weakspot and its orange blood sprays alover the white crisp snow.
or een the way you drive like a lunatic along the stricken ships dorsal structure in a warthog with a all out war between the flood the covernant and the sentinels going on around you yet you drive on as there is only 12 seconds to spare before he ships fusion reactor destroys the very object that could whipe all sentient life in the galaxy out and you the last of your kind berd for combat built for the noble spartan2 the last real hope for earth. _________________ QUICK_EDIT

I choose the wrong answer, Half Life, since from both games, it was the only one i played ... and I liked (although I didnt like it very much, but it's fun to play some counter strike). _________________

Hmm, sirious? compairing these two like simular games? whahahaha, never. Although each has it's atvantages:
Halo:
+ Player can enter cars and other vehicles
+ The vehicles are sized to the figures in the world
+ V-Large maps
- Reload of weapons is lame
- The player can not carry enough ammo
- The HUD is not good at all, player gets easily confused
- Sometimes there are to many monsters attacking the player
Half-Life:
+ Mods are popping up everywhere, so it isn't boring.
+ 3 Official expantions
+ Weapons are pretty cool
+ The SP-maps are following each other nicely
- Grafix are not of this time, they need a good update (mahbe a new patch which does this also)
- Player doesn't have much choice of his route (to many doors are sealed)
What I personnaly mis in both games:
-> No jetpack (this isn't really a needed thing, but it would be nice to have one in a new expantion)
-> No areal attacks (I love to see more areal attacks, and a bit more agressive ones) _________________ We come in pease, SHOOT TO KILL SHOOT TO KILL!!! QUICK_EDIT
is halo moddable like half life? thats one of hl's main advantages over it i think _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
Halo:
- Reload of weapons is lame

The reload of weapons is not lame, it's realistic.
The player is not meant to be able to carry enough ammo, hence the melee ability. Its meant to be challenging, if you want to play something easy, buy a gamecube.
The HUD is the simplest thing ever, you have your ammo in one corner, your health in the other, what's complicated about that?
Halo, is moddable, its possible to reskin everything in the game. And i believe there's a map tool in development. I tthink it's possible to change elements of the game too, but having never tried i can't say for sure. QUICK_EDIT
I didn't see any mods for Halo so far, but I don't like the game either.
And I just gave my oppinion, nothing wrong with that
So far I know, HL got the best mods ever created for a 3D game.
But I don't play many other games in this catagory, so correct me if i'm wrong.
The mods I like:
- Azure Sheep (HL, SP mod)
- Case Closed (HL, SP mod)
- Point of view (HL, SP mod) I recommend this one! Play as an alien!
- Deliverance (HL, SP mod) _________________ We come in pease, SHOOT TO KILL SHOOT TO KILL!!! QUICK_EDIT
you can be an alien on PS2 version the codes hidden in the game somewhere.Its:
up/triangle/up/triangle/up/triangle/up/triangle at the password screen
just incase anyone has the ps2 version and wanted to check _________________ That acting was so bad I think you gave me Cancer...
Half-Life is definitely superior, because it is much older and much more revolutionary than Halo. I must also admit that I did not really like Halo because there is less problem solving than HL and more slaughtering of legions of weak enemies, especially in the end of the game.
man your missing out on tons o fun halo is the best game on the planet. _________________ Making:

lol
"player cant carry enough ammo" ever heard of shot placement?
"too many mpnsters attacking the player" too many? whats that?
"player gets easily confused" if they are stupid
"Reaload of weapons is lame" what are you on about?
on another note
"Half-Life is definitely superior, because it is much older and much more revolutionary than Halo. I must also admit that I did not really like Halo because there is less problem solving than HL and more slaughtering of legions of weak enemies, especially in the end of the game."
halo has revolutionar graphics and pyssics it also was the first fps to succesfully employ vehicular units without stupid amounts of bugs. it is also highly free roaming so you have a choice of direction. and problem solving flood room one door only a pistol and a frag. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
oh yeah sorry about that well not many others do without making them a linear part of the storyline. and very few fpses prior to halo have vhercles in multiplayer. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
OMG!!! this topic shouldn't have even been made you should all know that Half-Life is bloody better than Halo!
It was the best FPS ever created by the best company Valve i still play it with beautiful mods created by people i also play Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat and Team Fortress Classic these are multiplayer mods _________________
Halo has so many things wrong with it I won't even begin to start. Half Life had a better story, better enviroments, and revolutionary gameplay. Halo can't even touch that.
BUT I KNOW HOW TO SETTLE THIS.
Okay. Whichever game has the best mod w-OH WAIT. Halo? Modding? HAHAHAHAHA.
Half Life (1) - Halo (-4)
Oh, and

compares screenies of halo2 and halflife 2...hmmmmmm halo all the way
BECAUSE GRAPHICS MAKE A GAME. Hmm, last time I checked, you don't play graphics. You play the game. Plus, in Halo, everything looks like it's wrapped in plastic. _________________ Red Alert mod for C&C3. QUICK_EDIT
Go to Lab A, go to Lab B, go through Zombie-infested Village A, go to combine-infestd Jail A, go to back to Lab A, take over Point C, go into Big Tower A, escape from bad guys in Tower A, escape from bad guys in Tower A again, and kill Person C. _________________

I did use my brain. IN a holding down shift and trying not to scream at the monitor way of using my brain. Erm, yeah. Sure.
Adams: True. It depends on prefrence, really. I find the whole Post Apocoliptic story quite fun, and Halo goes with an impending destruction kind of storyline. _________________ Red Alert mod for C&C3. QUICK_EDIT
Halo-Half-Life is immensely grewater than Halo. I think that Halo only became popular because it was one of the first decent games for the Xbox, when it was really just a display of graphics. Half life was far better in the regard that you had to have problem-solving ability to play it, and Half-life 2 introduced the physics device as a weapon. halo is just an overrated, average FPS. QUICK_EDIT
lol, HL2's gfx are WAY beyond halo 2's. Especially physics, which are fun to play with. Regardless.. HL2 could have been a lot less boring.
HL2 uses Havok physics engine also found in Unreal Tournament, etc.
Halo's story maybe is cool, but I like HL2's story, although it's short and simple. QUICK_EDIT
F.E.A.R. is one of the buggiest games ever made, well the demo is at least. God knows how many people had sound problems because they couldnt be arsed to use a decent audio codec, which resulted in people unable to hear, but also unable to play the game simple because yhe game skipped audio, and actions happened before they were supposed too. IE. people being pushed out of the car before they was supposed to and there for trapping them in the behind the dumpster and car.
Now i dont know about others, or the people who did actualy remove all third party codecs, but i am not willing to remove my codecs so i am unable to watch my large libary of movies and RV shows, just so i can play a buggy demo. People went so far as formatting in order to play the game, and still had no luck. You would think if a company beta tests a game they would collect details from a wide range of computers starying at high specs and ending at low specs so people could actualy try the game. This experience has put me and hundreds of others off this original and interesting looking game. They would be lucky is i decided to *borrow* the retail version off a firend and attempted to play. _________________
