The first Halo was good enough that it, together with Project Gotham Racing persuaded me to buy an Xbox. I got invited to one of the launch demos (a beneficial side effect of working for an Uni with a Games Development degree). I played Halo in single player mode and found it had something most FPS games lacked. An enjoyable and coherent storyline. I say that most FPS games lacked it at the time, but, TBH, they lack it now.
Then I played PGR, found it was a good (rather than great) racer with an excellent soundtrack and very realistic circuits (it actually felt like I was driving around London at over 100MPH), and I was hooked. As soon as I could afford it, I bought an Xbox with those two games, and never looked back.
