    Regenerating Health

    Concept »

    Regenerating health is a gameplay mechanic which automatically refills the players health bar after successfully escaping damage for a set amount of time. It is typically seen in RPGs and modern first/third-person shooters.

    Halo?

    So I am going to be picky :) Technically in Halo the regenerating aspect is the shields on your armor not really what you tend to consider your health

    Yeah, but the icon for the thing is the halo regeneration bar. I think we all accept that it is the same concept

    Picky, but you are right. Halo 1 had regenerating shields, and health packs.

    Halo 2 and Halo 3 have regenerating health, as well as regenerating shields. The whole thing is spelled out here.

    Halo 1's shields are a precursor to the health systems used in a lot of modern shooters, allowing you to be at "full health" when you run into a freshly respawned enemy. But yeah, I think TB42 is right.
