Am I pretty much the only person in the world who's never played Halo?

Pretty much. I love the game (Apart from Halo2, which was a massive, MASSIVE dissapointment) and I dont see why people dis it so much on this forum.

I've managed to avoid playing it or any version thereof, sort of reminded me of a version of Quake which was made like the plastic scissors they used to give the slow, weird kids in primary school that started fires in garbage bins and ate glue.

Strange, I dont remember any of that at all.

if i were one of those wankers that quoted other people in their sig, i'd quote that. fucken lol.

and i agree 100%

as a console game halo was excellent, but it doesn't compare to any solid PC title of the same era.

I have played those games, intensively. If you look at Halo like that than you fail because games arnt generally supposed to conform to deathmatch style gameplay. Halo bend's more toward's tactical shooter than DM. If you like DM style games only than fair enough, but a comparison between Halo and Q3 is inherently pointless and is not and effective way to debunk Halo.

Halo, a tactical shooter? :|

Yeah, that's the point. It can't be classified into any certain genre and a comparison is impossible.
