Idk why they cooking him when he’s right.
Halo was only huge because of the jump on to consoles with heavier emphasis on cinematic storytelling and set pieces.
HL1, Quake, System Shock, AvP, Blood, Quake 2, Unreal, Serious Sam and countless others were already amazing FPS before Halo.
If you had a PC in the 2000s you had a better FPSs by far.
Halo was the shooter you played if you didn't have a PC to play better shooters. Weird to see so many people act like it was more than that.
