nov 15, 2001 - Halo Ushered in a New Era of Console-based Shooters
Description:
By 2001, there weren't many console-based shooters on the market. But Microsoft changed that, by acquiring Bungie and helping to transform its next real-time strategy game called Halo into one of the most influential games of all time.In basic terms, Halo is the equivalent of Doom on PC for gaming consoles. Its powerful narrative, smooth gameplay experience, advanced AI enemies - all helped make Halo the only game you need on Xbox.
In fact, 10 years after Halo's release, Halo 3 is still one of the best multiplayer games available online.
