    Remarkable Xbox FPS Shooter! Great Multiplayer!

    I could explain how great this game is, but i would need too put approximately 8000 words, 268 pictures and 84 videos but yet it would still mean nothing compared to playing the game.

    It is the one Xbox i would give a 10 because this game really deserves it.

    I'll explain co-op since thats what i started out with.

    You start shooting aliens with awesome guns while there screaming. The gunning is just incredibly fun. The levels are original in a good atmosphere and has fun FPS action. The aliens are fun to kill and the goals take time.

    In the future, you get MOBS of aliens and amazing guns so you just go on an extremely fun killing rampage.

    You will also get to use vehicles, land and air in the future to use with team-mates. They are brutal and really fun to use.

    At the end you'll be sad its over but with hard mode and legendary and online, the game will never end

    Online gaming is  the best part about it, it combines good maps, game styles and great FPS action with vehicles make it phenominal!

    Overall, this game is just soo amazing you must play it.

    Bottom Line = If you have an Xbox, BUY IT! If you don't, buy an Xbox for one!


    My rating scale depends on the platform and genre its on. Since PC has much more awesome games on it, i mark much harder on it so a 80% on PC would mean its great compared to the hundreds of other awesome PC games of that genre, and might be better than a 98% of consoles. A great game is a great game, on the system. I like to keepy my reviews short and sweet, so i wont bore you and get to the point. If theres an official review out on Giant Bomb, you should definately read it because they are the best reviewers in the worlds! =D


    Gameplay 10/10
    Graphics 10/10
    Fun 1010
    Replay 9/10
    Single+Multiplayer 10/10


    Overall =  49/50  =  98%

      Let us take The Wayback Machine to a much simpler time, Nov. 2001. The PS2 had been out for a year, the Dreamcast was on it's deathbed and the GCN and Xbox had just been released. Think of console FPSs back at that time. Go on, I'll give you a minute.... Done? Ok. Not a whole lot, was there? On the PS2, there was Red Faction and Timesplitters. On the DC, you had ports of Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament. The GCN didn't have a shooter yet but the N64 had Perfect Dark and Turok 3. Now compare these g...

      A console FPS that has stood the test of time. 0

      Halo: Combat Evolved(Xbox) by tylea002 on October 29, 2008

      Still standing tall after all these years.Halo was Microsoft's "killer app." It propelled the Xbox beyond all expectations, and put Xbox on the map as a gaming machine. However, before its release, there were many people who did not belive halo could fulfill its promises, as the first major Hi Profile FPS for a console.Half Life, Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament - All of those established shooter franchises were on the PC, and it was unknown how a console FPS would be able to even compare. How wou...
