Never really got into Halo, I played Halo 3 a bit and I wasn't too impressed.I never played any of the 3D Metroid games besides the first one, and it was alright and everything but it feels more at home in 2D, at least to me.

Halo is a decent game. Fun for parties.However, Metroid single player completely blows Halo out of the water. The pure gameplay and level design of Super Metroid and the atmospheric elements of Metroid Prime 1 make them some of my favorite games of all time. Halo is just another casual FPS compared to it.

I'm really not a fan of the Metroid series in general. Hate me with all your might, but I never did find them fun. Halo: CE and it's successors, I thought, were far better.

Metroid for single player "campaign", and Halo for multiplayer and multiplayer campaign. Even thought that's not really a fair comparison since most metroid games don't offer multiplayer. But still, it depends on what you're in the mood for I guess :D

Metroid because its story line and atmosphere is 1000x better then anything halo will ever produce.

Though I like Halo more, I think Metroid has better gameplay. Halo is much easier too.

Halo has some of the best story lines, and their idea with odst having every multiplayer map from every game... also the firefight mode is pretty intense...

I like Halo more cause of one reason, Master Chief doesn't lose all his powers on the first level because of an explosion or such.

I would have to go with halo even though i still like metroid.Metroid has scarier monsters and gameplay where as halo you can have comrades and is alotmore "fast pace" action involved. But i guess halo the storyline is just a bit better than metroid prims.

Is the cat in the box alive or dead?

If you open the box, you will know the answer.

You will know the truth.

However, until you open the box, you can claim that the cat is alive, and you can also claim it is dead.

I'm going to have to go with Metroid.Halo is ok, but I don't think loving a game spelling a version of disaster about our world and what little hope there is left is an ideal concept to go with.Halo has its ups and downs. I did enjoy the story but not to the extent that Metroid did. I think the variety in weaponry, gadgetry and what not was terrible. It just seemed like another boring FPS, where you shoot, reload, advance non strategically (e.g. run up to the enemy from a 20 metre sprint lol). Halo's impact was initially good, but hype did long ago.Metroid on the other hand has always been good. I'll use Prime to keep the FPS theme intact. Not only could you use variant beams that do different tasks other than 'shoot to kill', you could also scan information of various things, which on a light level of cryptic puzzling worked wonders. Multiple visors altered the spectrum of visibility, giving off a new way to play. The morph ball system, granted another perspective while still remaining fluid to the gameplay. I also enjoyed the unnatural yet natural mix of nature and tech in the environmental scene.You guys should play the Metroid Prime series. It is really good in each game. From what I've heard, Halo and Halo 2 were good but Halo 3 was lacking.

I personally prefer Metroid. The atmosphere plays such an important role in truly making it an amazing game. That said I still love to play Halo 1 on legendary. It's easy to pick up and play where Metroid always had too distant save stations.
