Overview

Halo is a science-fiction action series built around firefights where weapons, grenades and vehicles give you several ways through an encounter. Story campaigns and multiplayer battles form its shooter core, while Halo Wars puts you in command of whole armies. Representative games: Halo: Combat Evolved (2001): The original balances on-foot shooting with vehicle battles, making your choice of two carried weapons matter. Halo 3 (2007): Introduces Forge, letting players rearrange objects in multiplayer maps to create their own battlegrounds. Halo Wars (2009): Takes the conflict into real-time strategy, with bases to develop and armies to assemble and command. Suitable for: For players who enjoy improvising under pressure and coordinating with friends, with room to turn an unfamiliar weapon or a nearby vehicle into a new plan.
