it was the first truly engaging console FPS.. consoles really do have a place in gaming.. and no game before it really holds a candle to Halo's story/design/<b>control system</b>.
and in case you didn't notice, the control system for halo that i'm talking about is not the arrangement of the buttons and functions: the acceleration and shot leading distance and all of those things are better than have been done with any before it.

A game doesn't have to be revolutionary to be good. Halo is <i>very</i> good, one of the best first person shooters I've played, and I've played a lot.
Halo didn't bring that much new stuff to the table; there were good first person shooters on consoles before Halo (Goldeneye and Perfect Dark), the tiny improvement it has made to the console fps control standard (Pioneered by Turok... now there's a game that deserves to be called revolutionary, if only for its ingenious use of the otherwise worthless N64 controller) isn't really worth any mention in the gaming history books, but that doesn't stop it from being a very good game.

The graphics are not "OMG amazing crapz meh pance!!!" but they are great for the PS2 which has such shite graphics capabilities. Some games you just really want to study the artwork, but most of the time if it doesnt completely suck, you barely notice it. (note: that's while playing. screenshots never ever do anything but lead to people **** about the graphics)
But yeah, I also think that the graphics are superb, considering it's being played on a PS2. My friend has a GameCube, and it's really fun and all, but I don't think I'll ever buy a console because when I beat a game I usually never play it again. I played SSBM with him alot and I have to say that those types of games really have to be played on a console. On a PC it would just suck. But, I've never played a FPS on a console before, so I wouldn't know if it's really as bad as you guys say.
sure the graphics are good right now but im sure when you get in game youll notice the **** **** motion blur (which drives me insane cuz i cant see **** while aiming franticly)

believe me: it's better. (i've played both.. for periods exceeding 40 or so hours.. x_x) the resolution is better, the rendering is better, the controls are better, the extra character is better, the sound is better.. should i stop?
First of all, Half-Life 2 and Halo 2 are coming out soon. So a lot of people need to stop pretending that this game means anything in the grand history of games. Killzone looks like it has all the gameplay features of Star Trek: Elite Force. That's not that impressive since Elite Force came out four years ago.

This is true. PS2 controler sucks for FPS. I play my GC the most, but Xbox has yet to produce something that makes me want to actually buy the console.
I might buy this game, it looks OK.

That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Chrono- What games do I like? Shogun Total War, Half Life, MGS2, Shenmue, Jet Set Radio (NOT future! Future sucks!), Starsiege, Black Hawk Down, Grim Fandango.
Jefe- Good idea. Dreamcast owns all current consoles. Atari 2600 owns Dreamcast. Magnavox Odyssey owns the 2600. The analyctical engine owns the Odyssey.
First of all, Half-Life 2 and Halo 2 are coming out soon. So a lot of people need to stop pretending that this game means anything in the grand history of games. Killzone looks like it has all the gameplay features of Star Trek: Elite Force. That's not that impressive since Elite Force came out four years ago.
