Judging by what everyone is basically sayng about the game, its another let down like number 2 was. GREAT

Thoughts?

I picked it up, the first Halo I have actually bought and I think it's awesome. You have to realize you can't make everyone happy and some just love to bitch. Every other site gave it good reviews. I thought the graphics and gameplay were top notch. Not perfect but a lot better then 99% of everything else out there.

Ducky 2.0T · 09-26-2007, 07:28 AM

I think its funny that soo many people bitch that it is just like just another Halo 2 with crappier weapons and other people want them to bring the maps from halo 2 to halo 3. You can't please everyone and much of what people bitched about can and will most likely be changed by Bungie. They made several adjustments to the physics in Halo 2, so I suspect the same treatment here.

I played Halo 2 from launch day up until last weekend. I suspect Halo 3 will be the same.

Hands down halo 3 is nice. Updated graphics, storyline, guns, and monsters make the game awsome. Once you get your hands on a gravity hammer you won't wanna put it down.

Dude I could not agree more, that damn thing is addicting. I was having a blast using it against those things that look like bees (don't know crap about what any enemies are called hahaha)

tjf · 09-26-2007, 08:52 AM

the only thing it could have used was some better guns, im kinda sick of the same guns from playing halo2 so much

edit: i dont know why people are complaining about the maps, cant you create your own

Dave · 09-26-2007, 12:02 PM

this is a standard reaction for when you create TOO MUCH buzz about something. im a bit upset at which characters they chose to kill off as well, and the one cutscene was dumb as all hell. no way you're gonna crash a thousand ton dropship through a building and not kill everybody involved with the overpressure

Brazen06 · 09-26-2007, 12:08 PM

there goes dave thinking video games are real life...LOL im still gonna get it so i can play something other than forza 2. but i agree there was waaaay to much hype over this game coming out.

i think the hype was justified, if a game has 1million+ presales theres got to be something going on. And it did deleiver exactly what Microsoft wanted, which was the big bucks. As of 12:01am on tuesday it was labeled the highest grossing video game of all times

i like realisim. of course if things were realistic, somebody would have known to keep her dumbass on the bridge. maybe she got confused and thought it was her job since the protagonist inexplicably uses a navy rank instead of a marine one.

Reason being was it was within the story line of the games. People that played halo also played halo 2.

But you just can't buy halo 3 expecting to understand it.

lagos · 09-26-2007, 02:41 PM

its a good game. im enjoying it. however there is a real lack of innovation that you would normally expect in a 360 version. it looks and feels just like halo 1 and 2, and doesn't give you anything new. i guess they were trying to get the game out quickly and not piss off the core group of fans.

as for the levels, all the outdoor maps in the campaign are great, and all the indoor ones are terrible. multiplayer was a lot of fun tho, for the few min i got to play it.

jdm free · 09-26-2007, 02:48 PM

i dont think that the graphics were of 360 quality, the maps looks good, but i think overall i could see this game on regular xbox with the same graphics

Willdue · 09-26-2007, 02:55 PM

Hands down its sick. The guns I think r nice. Love how you can remove turrets and such. People r juss bitching to start somthing. Eryone thought it was gunna be so different, what do you expect? Its a trilogy, the story must go on.

I love how it multiplayer campaign the 2nd player plays as the supposed enemy from the first 2. Don't spoil it for me, I plan to play this game out for the story...

But still, its a great game, but juss wait. Call of Duty 4 will be the game of the year.
