Would you mind removing the video from your signature or placing it inside of [spoiler][/spoiler] tags?

Yeah I agree your signature is a bit too large. You should put that video in spoiler tags or just put a link.

As for Halo I used to play almost every night on XBL, but then I got bored because I am terrible at FPSes, plus sometimes the people I played with were annoying so I lost interest. My favorite game was Halo 3 personally, but I didn't play Reach much.

I suck at action FPSes, but I'm pretty good at half life single player, 007, tom clancy rainbow six, etc., since it requires precision rather than speed.

I suck at FPS's only when I'm using a console like the 360 or PS3. On a PC though I'm pretty good. So because Microsoft is very slow with the PC releases of Halo I don't get that much action there. I do believe that the Halo 3 PC release is coming out this year though ;D

In my programming class there's some sort of halo that can be run from a flash drive, also a ton of people have minecraft/____craft so whenever a sub's in charge there's only like 5 people actually on task :P
Only FPS i've ever really played was wolfenstein on the 9860, so yeah :P

I like the ratchet and clank series tho, but that's third person (unless you explicitly select the first-person mode in some of the games)

I hope they don't botch up the PC release of Halo 3 like they did the last time - what with the xbox live crap.
I remember Halo was one of my favorite FPS's for a while.

Yeah on the computer I was slightly better, although still not too great. I'm just not as much into that kind of game, but again I have some issues I think because I have troubles at almost every game that aren't turn-based RPGs. X.x

As for Halo 3 PC I am not too confident about it, though, after what happened to Halo 2 PC. Even on high end PCs at the time of its release it was still insanely slow. I hope they will do a better porting job.

Also it sucks that they discontinued XBL for Halo 2 and all old Xbox games D:

Hmmm Yah, I'll edit the tags for my sig. Even though it was already done, it'll remove the red warning. ;D

But my fave Halo is Halo: CE for the PC. The other forums I'm a part of (dgclan.com) focuses primarily on that game, amongst many other topics as well. It's a pretty fun community, as I'm sure this is, I just need to explore it more. XD

I hate Halo.  Always and forever -- I think I'll pull a nikky :P.  I hate all FPS's except the uncharted series, and even that is really a 3rd person shooter. :P. I just don't like the idea of shooting as if you're actually killing that person -- it just seems really wrong to me.  At least in 3rd person, it's more like someone else is lynching the soviets, not you.

Edit: and I don't see what's so rude about my honest opinion, either.

I've never played Halo.
the only FPS game(other than minecraft, which doesn't really count) that I've played is black ops.
I suck at it(died 10 times in 10 minutes :P)
as a consequence, I've stayed away...
EDIT: I just noticed that call of duty is abbreviated COD:
