In Response To: Re: Who cares about Halo's story? Article (Captain Spark)

: Yes, and I'm one of them.

: I buy video games for the game play and the story is the last thing on my
: mind. Both Halo games have a nice story but after several times playing
: through each game I just want to settle in and have fun. I still play the
: original Halo campaign and I still have a blast with it. I don't play the
: Halo 2
: campaign as often anymore mostly because it lacks the fun game play as the
: original Halo does. Halo 2 is incredibly linear, what I call "Halo on
: a rail", you are rammed through the game too fast. I rarely play Halo
: 2 on Live and I have several reasons why that I'm not going to go into
: anymore.

: I've been playing shooter games since the first Doom game came on the scene.
: Many of the older games had such silly stories, if they had a story in the
: first place, so I've been conditioned to ignore the story and focus on the
: actual game play.

: I have all the Halo books and I've read each one and least 5 times. I like
: the Halo story but when I play the game, I could care less about the
: story.

But you do agree that Halo has a good story, it's just not completely apparent in the games and that's not what you play the games for. I myself love Halo's story but I've probably only played Halo 2 once for story reasons, which was the first time I played.
