When you think Halo, unless there’s a disconnect, chances are you don’t also think ‘boy bands’ and ‘the beach’ — at least, not all at the same time.

I tried coming up with a more creative/catchier title, but honestly, what the hell else is there to say other than look at the infographic below. Sure gameplay doesn’t always mean greatness, but holy Master Chief if some of these stats don’t blow you away:
- 20 million games played…
- Over 123 Trillion Minutes Played…
That doesn’t even include the time spent on Continue reading “Why HALO Might Be The Greatest Game of The Modern Era (Yes I Have Statistics)” »
