Halo: Combat Evolved



The first game I will be playing through is the hit 2001 release, "Halo: Combat Evolved." It was developed by Bungie, and published by Microsoft Game Studios.

Wait, what? Microsoft makes video games? Bill Gates's Microsoft? Doesn't he have better things to do? Oh, well...

Anyway, according to the all-knowing internet god, Wikipedia, Halo: CE has been praised for being "easy to learn" and having a "compelling story." And Wikipedia wouldn't lie to me. Me and Wikipedia are tight.

Now, you may be wondering: "How has a stunningly charming and handsome fellow such as yourself avoided playing Halo for so long?" Or perhaps: "Why would you NOT play Halo as soon as possible?" Maybe even: "What is Halo? I don't know anything..."

Well, the answer to the first two are the same: I have never found the concept that intriguing. Space aliens and all that. Sounds a bit lame. However, I now have the game on hand so I decided to give it a shot.

To answer the other question: Go away.

Sooooooooo.... I ought to get to playing that then.
Bye for now.
