I really hated Halo. I thought the single player game was boring and the
multiplayer was frustrating -- the vehicles were too powerful. Doom 3 is a
very different kind of single player game but, again IMHO, is a lot of fun.
It's more like being in a horror movie than a war. The multiplayer is pretty
lame though. Various flavors of Quake 2 and Quake 3 are far better. If you
like vehicles in your multiplayer game I would consider UT2k4. A player on
foot has effective options against a vehicle and the Onslaught mode is
reasonably fun.
