In Response To: Too soon. (Jordan117) : Halo was great, and a landmark for console gaming, but there are people who : will argue that it wasn't even that influential as a video game, much less : compared to the entire American cultural landscape. I at least partially agree, but I can't resist two of my favorite quotes putting up a defense: "Halo became a cultural touchstone, a Star Wars for the thumbstick generation." Thompson, Clive. "Halo 3: How Microsoft Labs Invented a New Science of Play." Wired News. 21 Aug. 2007. Web. <http://www.wired.com/gaming/virtualworlds/magazine/15-09/ff_halo?currentPage=all>. "Brian Bendis: I think Halo is our generation's Star Wars." George, Richard. "Exclusive Interview - Halo: Uprising." IGN. 18 May 2007. Web. <http://comics.ign.com/articles/789/789811p1.html>>
