Its popularity sure did. Halo is far more derivative than it is influential, that's not necessarily a bad thing. What it perfected, it did it well. But I don't see, outside of a few unsuccessful shooters, Halo's legacy at all. CoD is more influential than Halo.



I agree. Yes, Halo did impact the shooter genre, but Metroid has an impact in video games that few can compete with. It's the first platformer to have an overarching world, and its tone is still alive and well today. I'm not going to pretend that Metroid Prime has been more influential than Halo itself, but the franchises as a whole, I'm going with Metroid.
