Halo 3

Started by Violent2Dope200 pages

You think the Mario games are an overhyped FPS?

I find it to be overhyped. I also find Mario games to be overdone and nowadays generic, with boring characters,

Yes it does. Know why? 'cause I played both and enjoyed Halo 3 more, as such I find it to be a better game. Hooray for opinions!

As long as you recognise it's your excitement influenced opinion.

And you've been pputting it down so much that you won't admit you're just being biased. Everyone sees it, though.

The difference is, I've been asked for my opinion of the game, and I have said I don't think it's horribly shit. I don't dislike the game nearly as much as its fanbase. I'm not anti-Halo, I'm anti-let's make Halo out to be the best thing before, during and since sliced bread.

Yeah, that's what happens when you play a game. Deal with it.

It doesn't, does it? You're excited, understandable. To say it's better, graphically, than Gears of War is ludicrous.

You'll always be you, I guess. Go revive the Bioshock thread and cry there.

Cry? This is what I mean about Halo fans, you act like I just insulted your mother or something. If you came into the Bioshock thread dissing it, you'd just get laid out because your arguments are shit, but you're entitled to your opinion. It's not a "Let's all talk good about Bioshock". You lot seem to believe the only people allowed in this thread are people who love Halo.

LOL!!! Wow...a fool to the max. Read up the definition of what a fanboy is before throwing it around, boy.

I for one know what a fanboy is, and there are plenty in this thread. We can use the term as we wish.

Take a second to read my post. Notice that I said that I find Halo 3 to be superior to Bioshock in everything except graphics. And prove that Gear's graphics are better.

Look at the game, anything else is pure denial.

As did a lot of the parts in Gears.

Now you're just replying with "So did Gears.", for the sake of it.

That's relative. I found the Bioshock dystopia story to be boring, and preferred Halo's futuristic setting. So to me Halo's story is better. See how that works?

You prefer it, it doesn't make it a better story. There's a lot more to Bioshock than there is to Halo. Halo, at the very heart, is an alien invasion story, pretty generic. Bioshock's story, while not massively original, cannot be summed up so simply. That's not opinion. If you think Bioshock's story was shit, fair enough, but it is a more complex story than Halo.

Unless you count all the books that have been released, but were not originally intended as part of the Halo story. The GAME, the heart of the franchise, is nothing that complex.

Yeah, I feel that way about Mario games.

Yeah, because Galaxy is the same as Sunshine, which are the same as Luigi's Mansion, which was the same as Mario 64...oh wait.

?

Mario sets the standard (and sometimes raises the bar) for all games the likes of it. Games wait for Mario games to come out. Far from generic, it's a hell of an innovative game.

People think that because it's a Mario game, it's all the same.

Possibly the silliest, most stupid misconception in gaming communities.

so is it any good?

Its a pretty good game, not a classic, with the gameplay and storyline being easily the best parts of the game, especially the storyline which keeps you glued to your seat like a good film, however overall it comes across as just an improved halo 2 with a few extra stuff thrown in which is disappointing. You can see from some of the levels how entertaining xbox live is going to be, and thats probably the best part of the game, the longetivity on live. The graphics aren't that great (being xboxish at times) after the game being hyped off the charts, and many will be disappointed, but other parts of the game make up for it. If you have the priviledge of having a HD t.v it probably makes up for the mediocre graphics, and adds a little extra to the game.

My 2 cents after finishing the game.

I say pick up the game if you're a fan.Don't expect it to be some all new experience,it's really just Halo 2 with some new mechanics....

yeah i dont think ill be getting it, i dont do the whole live thing and i just bought bioshock as well not too long ago so that should last me until pro evo comes out.

Yea bioshock is good but also has its flaws, and i agree with you about only getting the game if you have live as it doesn't have much longetivity otherwise, as only two groups should get this game, halo fanboys or people that play live alot, both coinside to be honest.

HALO 3 PLULZ!

fanboys aside .is it a good game?and is it better than halo 2?
please answer in detail

Beat Halo 3 at about 5:00 today and OMFG ITS AMAZING!

I can honestly say that I enjoyed Halo 3 more than the original... oh my god I'm in love

I like playing online with Halo 3. Even though its your typical online modes like deathmatch, (oh wait, I meant slayer), but in a funny way of things, I find it refreshing because its not your typical CS clone or Battlefield clone, which it seems that every online game is now.

It's an well made game, but its basically Halo. For all the hype, its an letdown, but in reality, Halo 3 should of been the original Halo with all they praise it got.

Like I said before, Bungie should take lessons from Valve, Monolith and 2k Games Boston on how to produce a good quality singleplayer.

You'll be waiting a long, long time. It took like 2 years for the price of Halo 2 to go down.

But I love how they added in Red vs Blue into tha game. I couldn't stop laughing.

i can wait

what's the point of that, i'd rather just play my personal character as silver or orange or black...it's funier to just be a loneier in that game anyway.

Which one did they add them into and how did they incorporate them into the story/game?
