The first is a shield that can regenerate if you avoid damage for a short period of time, but if the shield is completely depleted, any further damage you take until it can recover is applied to a health bar. When you’re playing as the armored soldier Maser Chief, your health actually comes in two layers. The gameplay mechanics of Halo: Combat Evolved are definitely an important part of its success. Halo: Combat Evolved – Anniversary is simply the remaster that brought this original smash hit to the Xbox’s successor the Xbox 360, with changes both expected and unexpected.
Games trying to copy its success were often billed as “Halo killers” though few would really be able to live up to such a title, but it was clear that Halo: Combat Evolved and its sequels were a definitive part of the console generation of their release and their influence can still be felt in how many shooters are designed today. It propelled the console up to being a legitimate contender with the other systems of the time, it reinvigorated the first person shooter genre and popularized ideas like regenerating health, and its sequel lead to a big push towards online multiplayer being a feature in any game that had multiplayer.
It’s hard to overstate how much of a phenomenon this science fiction first-person shooter was when it released on the original Xbox.
