But I say fuck the rain.

I got a bit of an ambivalent relationship with this series. I played the PC port of Halo back in the 2000s and was extremely unimpressed, last year I got the MCC and playing through it it turned out Halo 2 and 3 are actually pretty good even now. 1 is still a stinker, though.

To answer the second question, I have no idea. That said, I understand Ratchet and Clank (released in 2002) used an early version of the weapon wheel, but I've never played it so I couldn't tell you.
Completely useless bit of FPS trivia: Clive Barker's Undying did it in 2001, I think that is the earliest weapon wheel.

'Perfect Dark' had one in 2000.
We'll get to the last century yet.

Not shooters, but Secret of Mana and Secret of Evermore had them in the early to mid 90s. They never even spread to other RPGs, though.
There we go!
