Funny, Half-Life had no narrative, just "You're a scientist in trouble... GET OUT!!!" Half-Life brought a real story?

Half Life brought REAL STORY to the table, while Halo brings cinematics that tell a pretty retarded story (Halo 2 - H1 was okay story-wise) There's NOTHING brilliant about Halo except the Forge. Multiplayer is deep, but not Brilliant. WHY is Halo brilliant?

There’s NOTHING brilliant about Halo except the Forge. Multiplayer is deep, but not Brilliant.

There's a reason Half-Life and Half-Life 2 are revered as well. It’s not just a sci-fi shooter though - it’s an f’ing brilliant one. There’s a reason Half-Life and Half-Life 2 are revered as well.

I'm not saying Halo is bad, I'll reserve judgment, but I mean the name is likely to help. Anything poor in reviews says it's "more of the same". For me, THAT IS A PROBLEM. I DO NOT WANT TO PLAY JUST ANOTHER SHOOTER. I can't wait till Tuesday because I want to love this game.
