There are certain aspects, though, that we can compare, between the two. But that's only when it's regarding a cross platform piece of software.

Perhaps, but I still think there is a fundamental difference between the majority of console and pc gamers that renders the whole debate between the two utterly pointless.
Ding ding. We have the ultimate answer right here.
And yet the debate rages on.

It's essentially equivalent to the atheist/theist debate. "This is what I value, and I value it more than I value what you value, therefore, my position is better."

Play Halo 1 (notice I said Halo 1!!!...2 is only okay) 16 player multiplayer with GOOD people, and you'll understand why.
Halo's single player is dreadful. Its repetitive, boring, and the storyline never seemed to be anything more than a mediocre sci-fi tale. People rave about Halo's storyline saying its unbelievable, but it just didnt seem that cool to me.
But the multiplayer is genious.
Just my 2 cents.

Totally respect your opinion m8 - A lot of people love the multiplayer in Halo. I just didn't think it did anything better than a lot of other FPS' out there.

Sometimes the "expanded universe" media for popular franchises (I.e. Star Wars, various video game franchises, and other sci-fi type worlds) is actually really well written and surpasses some of the source material in quality.
