    Bad Points: There are hardly any bad points in this game, but the few that there are, I will list.----Sometimes the game can be a bit too easy. There are some levels where you hardly need o fire a weapon at all, but just whack the enemies with the pistol using the B button.----Lack of checkpoints. I find myself quite annoyed at times, when I get to a certain point and there are no checkpoints. If i accidentally kill my self i have to start all the way at the beginning.That is all I had difficulties with.


    General comments: Halo Combat Evolved is an absolutely amazing game. It has the best graphics when it was released, and it still upholds that title. I bought Halo. Combat Evolved about 3 years ago and I still haven't got tired of it. If you are looking for a great science fiction shooting game, then this is the game for you. There are so many good points about the game, for example, the levels are so big and there is constantly battles to be fought, meaning you are always kept on your feet. The plot revolves around a character called Spartan 117 (aka Master Chief). Basically, the story is set in the future, where the human race discovers a Halo. This Halo is capable of destroying planets and the Covenant (evil aliens) want to use it to destroy the humans. Master Chiefs job, is to destroy the Ring.All in all this is an amazing game, with lots of hooting and killing of alien freaks (no offense meant).
    Hope that this review has helped you, and I hope that when you get the game you will enjoy it.!

    What can I say that has not already been said. This game has been the mark of excellence to which other FPS games aspire to be. Many claim, few deliver the action and story that the original HALO lays out.
    For the first 2-3 years of the XBOX consoles' life, HALO was the reason to own XBOX.
    In my opinion, Halo still has grip on me now that it had when it was new.
    A must own for any gamer!!!!

    Halo Combat Evolved is probably the best shooting game for any console EVER made. The gameplay is just amazing with the level maps being massive and so much for you to do shoot, steal and have fun with.
    If you haven't already bought this game, I don't know why. Please do yourself a favour and get this game which turns the gaming industry upside down!

    I never really played shoot em ups but my friend got me a deal on Halo Combat Evolved when I first brought my X box. I saved this game till last out of my bunch but when I started to play it I couldn't put it down. This is a must have game if you want an X box or have one. The graphics are quality the multiplayer is very competitive, you get to use all sorts of weapons alien weapons included. The story is great makes me wanna shoot some of those aliens myself. I have Halo 2 and I still pref ...

    Halo is a brilliant game - even better than the sequel. The plot is clear and the guns are look awesome and how you whack them as well. I think Halo is an inspiration to Sci-Fi shoot-em-up games and will be archived as best SCI-FI shoot game for years and yars to come

    The only reason I purchased an Xbox was for the Halo Combat Evolved game, and it was the first game I played and completed.

    The graphics are stunning. The game play is smooth and it kept me interested right to the end.

    If you want a reason to buy an XBox, Halo is that reason!

    Halo is the most phenomenal game for the Xbox gaming system. Being one of the first games ever created for the Xbox, it remains to be the best shooter available for any console. Wonderful graphics make this game a joy to play. The Halo Combat Evolved game has 2 different sides to it - multiplayer and campaign. The campaign mode is amazing the first time through. It is long and intriguing to see the unique worlds and enemies. However, this game should truly be bought for its multiplayer. ...

    I'm not one for X-box games, no offence, but when I played Halo, it was awesome. It is a very good game. Halo 2 was also good, but I liked Halo 1 a little bit better.

    Halo Combat Evolved made me get an Xbox, and I have had the box and this game since it popped its head up in the UK gaming world, I have bought more games since obviously, but I will never sell or swap Halo, even after the Xbox dies and go to heaven, hopefully this will never happen!!
    GO OUT NOW, GET THIS GAME!

    Halo Combat Evolved - This is and will be the best game ever to come out on any platform even the coming PS3 because there is only one reason why, because it's a classic. The graphics are amazing, the A.I is pretty good and the sound quality is amazing. If you have the chance, hook this up to your stereo and put the bass on the highest and it feels amazing, especially if you're playing on a big screen TV.
    The co-op multipayer is amazing me and my mate have completed it about 5 times because yo ...

    I love this game! Halo Combat Evolved is a good reason to go out and spend the money on an X-Box. I love the multiplayer mode because it is a lot like an arena game verses an adventure (atleast the multiplayer is). It also has a great co-op feature that really makes the game tons better. There is no better game out there for the X-Box. I will be one of the people out there sleeping in front of the store before it opens just to be the first one in line for Halo 2.

    Halo is probably the best game I have ever played. It has magnificent graphics, good story, huge levels and some great music in campaign mode. Also it has a sense that you're actually in the fray. The multiplayer is extremely addictive and extremely fun and has lots of different game modes. I think the only annoying thing is a lot of repetitiveness from the flood, but everything else just blows that away. Halo 2 will boast better graphics, weapons story and probably best of all Xbox Live. Anyo ...

    Halo is an addicting game. Too darn cool. They need to make modern military games like this one. Try to drive the Hummer out into the ocean on the island level. You will be driving under the sea for 10 minutes. No boundaries, great!

    Absouloutly brilliant. Great vehicals. The banshee and ghosts are wicked. Please have more missions with Banshee's and ghosts. However I have nothing to complain about. The game rocks. I cant wait for Halo 2. The graphics rocks. I would buy Halo for £60.

    Overall I couldn't put this game down. Even when I was trying to sleep I was thinking and dreaming about this game. The graphics were flawless without any seems or glitches that i have spotted so far.(and I've been playing this game since it came out.) Even thought this game is rated Mature kids should have all rights to play this game. The violence is mild, the language is fine if you just lower the volume, but all in all kids from ages 8 and up because everyone should be able toplay this game ...
