I didn't know you played the retail version of the game already. Stop b*tching and go play your games. Also its not like anyone is forcing you to buy it.

You care too much about graphics. I thought Gears sucked because it was too short and had a terrible plot. If Halo 3 has good gameplay, decent length and a good plot then I don't care about the graphics. They get dated so fast anyway.

I tell you what, you name an area of Halo 3 that you think is sub-par and I will show you that it is not. So, what is first on your mind?

anyone else think that expectations in the graphics department have gone way way out of control i am sorry but games don't look like crysis crysis is the exception.

As to bioshock, cod4, and gears of war thats an opinion the color variation is a lot better in halo 3 than those games imo and the environment look better to me in halo 3

lazy? they added a map editor, and four player co-op,

and what do you mean does nothing new? i mean COD4 is cool but nothing i have seen is innovative yet you dont bash it for that(and it has no co-op), and bioshock is an rpg/fps hybrid thats the only thing making it different do you want halo 3 to be a rpg/fps hybrid that would be a total different game(no co-op either but i mean it might not make sense in the story)

I have to disagree. So what if the foliage doesn't look like what it would if I was looking out a window. As long as I get to take on a platoon sized group of intelligent Brutes with 4 friends online with no lag, with a little sacrafice in the graphics, so be it. Besides, Halo 2 looks good enough for me, I'm still popping it in at my friend's house.

this is the worst halo bashing thread i have seen yet.

1. the game looks just as good as those games and will run smoother too.

2. is halo 3 out yet? how do you know how it will score? not smart

3. this is the most ridiculous statement i have ever seen. do you think bungie would put out a crappy product of their most elite and coveted franchise? do you really think all bungie cares about is money? its about respect too man. respected developers dont put out crappy games. they have reputations.

I really don't think you have seen any of the game play or newer screens. Halo 3 will not be the best looking game out but it will still have a great online experience and a good story. If all you care about is who good a game looks you have some real problems. And Bioshock will sell less because it doesn't have an online component, which most gamers think is a manditory thing for any new FPS.

As much as you could be considered "wrong" you are mostly right. Of course the game will be fun for those who enjoy it but the fact that they are marketing it like something totally other than a game is disgraceful.

wow, I never knew you played the retail version. Your saying lazy upgrade over Halo 2 when the game was clearly in the works for 3 years. Well, I think Killzone 2 deserves to flop because it doesnt look anything special that I havent seen before. You sir cannot be a Halo fan if you want the game to flop

Just because it has the Halo name doesn't mean it deserves to sell 6 million copies, I haven't seen one damn thing that has made me say WOW about Halo 3, 4 player co-op is nice, but as a game that will be the biggest selling 360 game or possibly the biggest selling game of this generation, I'm left thinking meh, what's so good about it.

Other games look better, are more original and will score better, (Bioshock) stop hyping Halo 3, it deserves none of it.

Any game that the developers have been slaving away for 3 years deserves a high score. Ifa talentedgroup of developers that havemade 4 AAA games before nowthen is should get a high score, unless they have been lazy. Bungie have been anything but lazy. They have (imo) added a load of new features while still trying to keep the core gameplay the same. That is what a sequal does. They could have added a few new weapons and MP maps. Instead they have done a lot more.

And to your last reply. How does a fun game with exelent online play thatspredecessor still has around 60000 unique players online at any one time deserve nothing? Thats just being a troll.

thats your opinion and your entitled to it. But unlike you, alot of people are pumped for this game. Millions of people to be more accurate. If you dont care about Halo 3, then why make a thread about it bashing it? Why not hype a game that your looking forward to instead? Lame.

Ah, you're a bi-product of the whole 'it has to be innovative and new to be fun' phase of the video game industry. I'm sorry to tell you, but if that's how things worked in real life, we'd only be getting 'fun' games every four or five years.

And why do any of those other games deserve to do well (except Bioshock) COD4 seems like people just like it for the grahpics, is it really different from the other COD series, it is just set in modern times that's all. Ok perks, create a class, on the topic of unoriginal isn't COD4 more like battlefield anyways. COD4 took the matchmaking system from Halo anyways. All you say in your pathetic post is that Halo 3 graphics suck, just live with the fact that it is going to be the best selling game this year.

Has it come to the point that now if a sequel doesn't play differently than its predecessor, it's not a good game? I don't understand the logic in this. If a game plays extremely well (as Halo does), why would you change it? Make tweaks, yes, but change it completely? No thanks. People buy SEQUELS because they want a game that they're familiar with, at least on some level. Does the game have to be exactly the same? No. But if it didn't play similarly, it wouldn't be a sequel, it'd be a new game. So you're better off praising Bioshock because it doesn't play like Halo than you are criticizing Halo 3 because it does.

Yeah no kidding, and if you were a Halo fan you'd relize that the reason people still play Halo 2 is because how fun it is, and how the controles work so perfectly, not because it has the best graphics. And seeing the screen shots of single player that graphics look amazing.

This thread is funny and ridiculous. Seriously we are judging screen shots here people. If a demo comes out thats where we will see how the game is. From playing the multiplayer beta i know Halo 3 is gonna be great like the last two. The beta had me hooked just like Halo 2 did with its online. The graphics were great for a beta too. I saw the E3 video in HD on my 360 and i'll say this those screen shots don't do the game justice cause the vid looked fantastic and better than those screen shots.

You're completely wrong in that if they didn't care about the quality of the game and just wanted the money, we'd be on Halo 5 by now. :)

Oh wait, what's this? It sucks because the graphics are apparently bad? Oh, sweet Jesus.....

A) It looks pretty damn good.

B) Graphics don't make a game.

They know you'll buy it no matter what, the only thing that matters is money, trying to make a genre defining game, or even one that pushed the 360 was never on their minds. Bioshock will sell only a quarter of the copies of Halo 3, yet it will be twice the game that this lazy cash in will be.

Halo 3 deserves to flop because it does nothing new and looks average.

wow, I never knew you played the retail version. Your saying lazy upgrade over Halo 2 when the game was clearly in the works for 3 years. Well, I think Killzone 2 deserves to flop because it doesnt look anything special that I havent seen before. You sir cannot be a Halo fan if you want the game to flop

You might want to reconsider that HD-DVD drive, it's going the way of the betamax - A blu-ray supporter :)

That has nothing to do with the topic smart one:roll:. The only way Ill ever go Blu Ray is if Universal goes Blu Ray. They have all my moives I want

As a fan of Halo it pains me to say this, but Halo 3 looks average, I mean the least it should do is look as good as games like Gears of war, Bioshock, COD4. But it doesn't, it looks worse.

As 360's biggest game it should surpass those games and be challenging Crysis, Killzone 2 in the graphics department, but it's a million miles away from those games. Why is this? Are Bungie lazy?, Bioshock has stolen Halo 3's thunder, it's not Halo 3 scoring the perfect 10's, it's Bioshock.

Oh goddamnit. Get the Killzone pictures out of the thread, nothing good can come of it.

All that really needs to be said is, Halo isn't Bioshock. Halo doesn't need to be, it's got it's own formula and Bungie is improving on that to make the best Halo game that can.

I was quite surprised though, Ctrl+F "Generic". Phrase not found. O:

First of all, you just posted concept art (although KZ2 does look great). Second of all, KZ2 could receive a 10 from every source that reviews it, and it still wouldn't deserve the blind hype it's getting. Relax, wait until next year, and then go enjoy your Killzone 2. Until then, watch 360 owners play Halo 3.

Hell, there's a difference between looking good and playing good. If the game plays well (Halo), graphics are secondary. When a game doesn't play well (Killzone 1), the graphics are all people have to cling to.

Besides, millions of gamers want to finish the main Halo story, so isn't that reason enough to buy the game? No everyone thinks Halo 3 is going to be the greatest game ever, but plenty of people are at least interested in it. For that reason alone, Halo 3 deserves to do well.
