Not all of the people here have been exposed to greatness that is the N64 i’m sure. I’m 31 yrs old and grew up with the classic systems. Odyssey, Colecovision, 2600, NES, SNES and the rest. I’ve lived through the evolution of gaming and know what a blast it is to play Goldeneye and even Conkers Bad Fur Day multiplayer on the 64. And while i don’t own an XBox i have played Halo 3, and i am working on Halo:CE on the PC. This is not just a Halo board, it’s a place where all gamers can come.

Do not assume that everyone here is voting for Halo just because it’s a fanboard. Everyone votes for their own reasons. Do not suck the fun out of this, just sit back and relax. Kudos to Angel for the idea, next year i hope to see Conkers BFD somewhere in the bracket! ;)

Anyways, as good as Goldeneye is, the game that changed the “game” for consoles is easily HCE. It brought the concept of a LAN party to the masses (well the console masses). It brought easy to understand controls with tight maneuverability. It mixed weapons and vehicles into a seamless joygasm. Plus, it starts the Halo story and playing Co-op on Legendary for hours and cases of Mt. Dew was born.

I ran LAN parties at my house with HCE every Wednesday for a year and a half. What HCE did for console gaming and console FPS cannot be duplicated.
