Halo 3 Takes Edge Award for Most Innovative

Surely to spark a fanboy war of biblical proportions, Edge magazine (easily the most respected magazine in the industry) has given Halo 3 the award for most innovative game of 2007. Bungie’s FPS sequel beat out Portal, Wii Fit, Mario Galaxy, Rock Band, and Grand Theft Auto IV for the award.

What many people may not realize is how in-depth the experience is. Forge is simple to use and complex. Replays, saved videos, and photos have led to some amazing work and memorable sights since the game’s release. Bungie.net tracks all statistics in detail as you play, something no other console shooter can claim to do (at least with this level of depth). Kudos for Edge for not bowing to pressure to give it to Portal, which many may have considered immediately. Great game, but doesn’t have the lasting appeal of Halo 3.
