some people like halo and some like cod

Tribes 1 came out in mid 90s with a sequel released before the 2000s. The Starsiege series also saw a number of game based on the universe, such a really popular mech combat game.
Halo 1 was released in 2001 and saw mass media attention a few months after its release. As opposition to this, Advent Rising was supposed to improve on the new FPS model before Halo 2 was released. Advent Rising, though well reviewed NEVER got the attention that the Halo series, and by proxy the Bungie studios did. Bungie had the background of great FPS games such as Marathon and Oni.
HiRez has taken it on themselves to reinvigorate the dead Tribes series with Tribes Ascend and Tribes Universe. Tribes, in and of itself, has always been a superior formula for multiplayer FPS marches. Many players that claim Halo is the pinnacle of arcade FPS action has never played Tribes 2. With its return, Tribes will once again reign as FPS king. Probably not amongst the consumer-illiterate who cannot look past marketing plots, but amongst those who view games as they should be. Even then, through word of mouth and the inevitable media attention, Tribes will secure its place once more. Any tl:dr statements are made by Halo and Call of Duty players :) This has been your history and foresight lesson by a gaming enthusiast (addict).
and Nox, Halo is in the same level from the first time to those games, and its not just luck why Halo has better marketing !
