Halo is a vidya game series released for the ECKSBAWKS and ECKSBAWKS 360 and to the PC, it isn't ported to anything else as it's a game developed exclusively by Microsoft. It also has a novel series buuuuut it's not like most people who play Halo has the attention span to read either. It became famous for being the game that saved ECKSBAWKS from doing an Atari Jaguar in the 21st century when the PS2 and Gamecube were neck and neck in console sales, primarily because it was the only reason anyone would even want to play an ECKSBAWKS HUEG console. It's storyline is pretty much a copy of your everyday generic sci-fi storyline you can think off with a multiplayer that isn't too original either. Why it became famous to this extent is something only [[Tzeentch]] could answer. | Halo is a vidya game series released for the ECKSBAWKS and ECKSBAWKS 360 and to the PC, it isn't ported to anything else as it's a game developed exclusively by Microsoft.

Halo takes place in the distant future, where Al-Qaeda-esque aliens called the Covenant are at war with the human race, who still haven't progressed past the gunpowder stage. It's not exactly known why they want to wipe the human race since the humans didn't really do anything to them buuuuut that's aliens for you. The other antagonists are "The Flood". A race of parasitic organisms that exist only to infest other lifeforms and OMNOMNOMNOM them.

Humanity would have been boned if it were not for the Spartans, an elite group of super-soldiers trained in combat since birth, wearing power-armored suits with plasma shields.

This is primarily because they continue to survive yet they're armor is incapable of protecting them from well....nothing in combat. In fact they're as vulnerable as any foot-soldier to a bullet once their plasma shields go offline.
Also, our only edge is that the aliens actually think that tinkering with the advanced technology they dug up from the olden days is HERESY... ensuring that we can improve on it. Ironic, hmmm?
