I know it's a great game but COME ON. It has to be getting old. Besides the occasional good idea and map pack it's the same old stuff since 2007, and the only innovation ODST is bringing to the table is 3 new maps and a new game type. I dont even count the single player as a campaign, since it only amounts to 3-4 hours. Halo has become extremely boring and overrated, and it should have been eclipsed in sales by a better and newer game long ago. What are you fanboys buying extra copies? But I digress, is Halo overrated now, or not? State your opinions.

P.S. Don't you fanboys be mouthing off to me because i finally said what needed to be said: Halo is a great game, but there are better titles.

Overrated is a matter of opinion.

One person thinks so, another thinks otherwise.

Personally, it's fun for a while, but after a few games i begin to get bored unless I'm playing Custom Games with my friends.

Same here. Custom games is about the ONLY thing to do in Halo. And in regards to the rank system: it's retarded. You get nothing out of it except a symbol, and to even get it, you have to have almost no life.

Halo is a bit over rated. I prefer CoD but that's just me.

Yes, but only slightly.

I agree, there are better games out there.

Halo...does get old. The guns look cool. But it's shoot, drive,fly (etc.).
Yea I prefer CoD. It's kinda the same, but I find CoD more fun.

Halo 3 is overated yes, but Halo 1-2 are very good, expecially when you have the online multiplayer feature. Halo 3 is the same as 2, just in three there's more unfair aspects EX: Gravity hammer, everyone just camps with those and when you swing it, you get a kill.

Halo 3 is a good game, but too many 10 yr olds love it. I thought Halo 3 was the greatest too, until I played Call of Duty WaW...

Even though I do like the game and think it's very good, it is overrated. The way some people talk about the game, it was is if they were talking about the holy grail.

A bit, but not by much. The first one definitely lived up to its name, that's for sure.

It may be overrated, but it survives because the machinima maaking tools, map customization, online playing, the halo comunity and the interest of bungie in keeping the game alive, but i dont like the campaign, to short halo 1 and 2 have better story mode
