Yeah, and one is a corridor shooter with null replayability + PvP and the other a sandbox FPS with RPG and coop elements, try to be a little bit objective.

    Corridor shooter? Halo (Bungie) pioneered sandbox elements on consoles.

  • Not true, Codename Eagle, Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis, GTA III and a bunch of PC RPG titles pioneered sandbox. Halo is not a sandbox, it has some wide arenas, no doubt about it, but it's not open world and its story is linear. Some people is complaining that Destiny is not a sandbox, Halo is way more linear.

    Those are all PC games, and GTA isn't even a FPS. I was specifically referring to consoles, and yes Halo 3 ODST as well as Halo Reach were sandbox video games. Corridor shooter (to me) is Call Of Duty (any of them) and Medal Of Honor, KillZone and Golden Eye. Non Linear stories are not a requirement to be considered sand box

  • PC or consoles, doesn't matter, Halo didn't invent sandbox because it wasn't a sandbox and because there were sandbox before. Halo has wide corridors and arenas but never was a sandbox like GTA, Assassin's, Far Cry, etc. Destiny made the next step, even if it's not a pure sandbox either.

    I clearly stated "pioneered on consoles". Halo didn't have to invent anything, before halo there wasn't a single FPS ON CONSOLES similar to halo

  • In terms of FPS consoles copied everything done on PC previously, so OK, Halo was a good pupil of PC pioneers.

  • But at least Halo has a great and epic story ;)

    If you think the few feet of padding along the corridors of this games circle maps makes it a sandbox, stepping outside of your room must overload your simple little brain. Glad you have something you can enjoy :) [spoiler]Try not to be an insufferable A-hole[/spoiler]

  • You are the A-hole with little brain if you can't hold a debate without insults. So it ends here.

    It does end here... but not because I cannot debate, but because your inability to form complete sentences is disheartening: your insecurity seeps through your words and is nauseating: your close-mindedness is baffling: your effort to compensate through condescending tones is laughably obvious: and the only thing remarkable about you is your hypocrisy. Don't look now, but people are catching on;) Have fun finding whatever it is you're missing.
