Halo, a videogame series started in 2001 with Halo: Combat Evolved, is an extremely popular First Person Shooter. Halo has had a large impact on society for its time, rivaling perhaps even Star Wars.

In 2001, Halo: Combat Evolved was released by Bungie alongside Microsoft for the original Xbox console. Many say it saved the Xbox, as a large number who bought the Xbox bought Halo with it.

Halo 2, a sequal to Halo: Combat Evolved, was released in 2004 for the Original Xbox. Considered by many to be the best Halo game, it introduced multiplayer over Xbox LIVE, and helped define the online FPS multiplayer experience.

Halo 3, released in 2007 for the Xbox 360, is the final installment in the original Halo trilogy, its tagline being "Finish the fight" and a long awaited sequal to Halo 2's cliffhanger ending.
