October 28, 2001 Link to this post Halo gets Gamespotted Thanks to Mr. Temper, who brought to our attention the current episode of Gamespotting at (where else?) GameSpot. Three sections rave about Halo: Joe Fielder gushes: So it's good. How good? You'll have to wait until my review to find out, but suffice it to say, I think that Microsoft's purchase of Bungie was one of the smartest moves that it's ever made in the games industry. I was a big fan of Marathon on the Mac and enjoyed Myth II: Soulblighter for the PC, but I think that this game could be the defining moment in the developer's career.
Shahed Ahmed is more subdued, but still quite positive: Halo hasn't received as much attention from the console gaming enthusiast as it should.
And Shane Satterfield puts Halo in the 'Sure Bets' category: If you're a fan of first-person shooters, or action games in general, don't think twice about picking up this game. It's the Xbox's killer app and it does not disappoint.
All in all, the Gamespot editors are pretty impressed with this game. (Louis Wu 03:45:35 UTC)
