ok i got the complete serise of halo when i wass 7 but as i matured moreand was interested in the navy i thought "this is nothing like real war" i said that because it says smg on a sertain gun and i say well there is many, many different smg's and assault rifles and rpg's. so i asked my friends a.k.a. the nerds (yes i am a nerd) what is a good real war game? they said border lands like the holy grail. so i bought that and played it for a while for like 2 weeks and thought the graphics (real world picture) was close but the guns are in a general varpiaty so shortly after ger a lecter from my mom about a 2 week game i bought call of duty 4. oh my gosh (dont know if i can say lords name on websight) the guns are labeled and not only just your everyday heard guns like m16 and m4 they have those but they also have like p90 (my favorite gun even with mw2) and saw 249 and thought i will stick with this serese because the story line for all call of duty's make sence but in halo it is out of world stuff (it might happen like in the 20's it would be hard to believe of a xbox) like the bata it is hard to have a visual of what it looks like when they used a bad graphics card (graphics are mismatched so it is hard) so if you have not yet gotten call of duty i recomend getting one or renting one if you are like me you will love call of duty if you like syfy just stick with halo or havent gotten it get halo.
