After The Hype

Seems to me more like Halo is overly popular because for a very large amount of people, it was the first FPS they had ever played. For me? I played one of the earliest, Wolfenstein 3d, and yes, I know it wasn't the first, Arcticfox beat it by several years, but none had reached the popularity of Wolfenstein 3d, and looking back on it? Wolfenstein 3d isn't all that good, compared to what came out a year later.

Though this is an unfair arguement, since Wolfenstein 3d is far more important to FPS than a game that's only accomplishment is introducing the most annoying feature I've ever seen in a game, regenerating health.
