Halo 3 will get high AA maximum. Why?

1. Because Halo 2 shouldn't have gotten AAA but GS fell for the hype. GS has learnt from their mistakes and won't let brand name and hype affect their scores again.
2. Halo 2 was saved by online multiplayer. Now Halo 3 has nothing big enough to save it like Halo 2 did.
3. The visuals look slightly better than Halo 2.
4. The game is essentially a rehash of Halo 2 with more brutes.
5. Halo gameplay is getting old and boring now. The same predictable gameplay isn't AAA worthy.

Halo 3 won't get AAA, high AA at best. You heard it here first kids.

Thanks for pointing that out. You're the first person on the SW boards to say Halo 3 will flop.

1- there is no way to know that unless you work there

2- multi-player has not even been fully revealed yet

3- those are pre-alpha screenshots, look at the E3 trailer

4- you have not even played it yet so you don't know

5- not for everybody and there is no way to predict what bungie is doing, for all we know they have completly changed the gameplay somehow.

Oh, and not everybody here are kids. Also your post is full of opinions rather than facts.

Ramirez, aka KeyWii, aka Yo_Foo..... Sorry, but you state opinion as fact. People on system wars would be more likely to listen to you if you didn't constantly make outlandish threads to start flame wars and gain attention for yourself. Even if your opinion turns out to be true, I don't care. I'm not someone who bases all their purchases on a AA score. Sorry. /Thread.

1. Gamerankings has Halo 2 at AAA. You fail.
2. Have you even read a preview of Halo 3? Nothing new huh? lol. You fail.
3. The only visuals we have are multiplayer in a game that is not complete. you fail.
4. Its called a sequel. Do you know what that is? And see #2. you fail.

I can only agree on the graphics part, because it hasnt come out yet, but you're right, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption on the "modified gamecube" defenitely looks like it could put up a fight with Halo 3. On that note, once again, it hasnt come out yet.

No it isn't.

It's still too early to say either way. I'll wait until I can play it myself, or at least see lots and lots of gameplay footage.

halo offers the best online for consoles, maybe gears is a little better, but halo is at the top of online for consoles, it wont score low,  if compare it to pc online games it would get killed, but for a console its not gettin any better

Yeah, we all know GS gave Gears a pity AAA when it's ranked 94% at Gamerankings.

I guess everyone was giving it a pity AAA then. :roll:

Halo 3 won't even have next gen gameplay. But regardless Metroid Prime gameplay is many many generations ahead of current games. Hence why it is the best.

lol...when all else fails claim pity and/or bias. Ramirez, why is it that you constantly ignore facts while touting your opinions as fact. check gamerankings.com. GS isn't the only site that rated halo2 high.

Using Casey's new found logic that the previous game sets the precident of what the future game will score, I can only say that out of all games coming out this year, Halo 3 is the only game that's sure to score AAA since Halo 2 scored AAA. See how awesome this logic is when used in the reverse sense?

No not neccessarily less than 9, a game could be hyped AA and get less than 8 and be considered a flop. But it's generally on big games that are likely to get AAA. :) And Halo 2 was so mediocre, Halo 3 can't escape the fate Halo 2 was supposed to get.

First off, MP isn't an FPS. It's an FPA (First person Adventure)

Second, as an FPS, it's gameplay would be generations behind. The lock-on would kill it as a full on FPS and is the reason why MP2's multiplayer sucked.

4. The game is essentially a rehash of Halo 2 with more brutes.
5. Halo gameplay is getting old and boring now. The same predictable gameplay isn't AAA worthy.

Halo 3 won't get AAA, high AA at best. You heard it here first kids.

I can only agree on the graphics part, because it hasnt come out yet, but you're right, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption on the "modified gamecube" defenitely looks like it could put up a fight with Halo 3. On that note, once again, it hasnt come out yet.

Halo 3 won't even have next gen gameplay. But regardless Metroid Prime gameplay is many many generations ahead of current games. Hence why it is the best.

First off, MP isn't an FPS. It's an FPA (First person Adventure)

Second, as an FPS, it's gameplay would be generations behind. The lock-on would kill it as a full on FPS and is the reason why MP2's multiplayer sucked.

Did I say Metroid Prime was an FPS kiddo? No I didn't. He brought up MP3, not me.

And as an adventure game it's gameplay is generations ahead. Argue all you want kiddo but those are the facts.



Are we comparing Halo and Metroid Prime again? *sighs*

How can they be compared? Halo is completely inferior to Metroid Prime. There simply is no contest. Comparing Halo to Metroid Prime would just be completely unfair to Halo.

[QUOTE="Darth matt"]What does Flop mean these days? This word is so over-used by fan-boys it has no more meaning to me. Sorry.-Ramirez-

in these forums it means a hyped game getting lower than a 9.0 score.

No not neccessarily less than 9, a game could be hyped AA and get less than 8 and be considered a flop. But it's generally on big games that are likely to get AAA. :) And Halo 2 was so mediocre, Halo 3 can't escape the fate Halo 2 was supposed to get.

Ramirez, why is it that every time I read one of your threads I picture you to be that guy sitting at his computer with the uber character in WoW from the South Park episode, "Make Love, Not Warcraft".

Right, firstly Halo 3 could flop but the pressure that Microsoft have put on Bungie will most likely make this game at least an AAA. It will be interesting to see what its like when the beta comes around, but to be honest this game isn't really on my hype list, Halo was just a shooter that came around at the right time.

Kiddo? Please, I'm probably a lot older than you, judging from the maturity of your posts.

And the point I was making (which you obviously didn't get) was that you shouldn't compare MP to an FPS, in this case, Halo 3, because it isn't in the same genre. Get it now?

As an adventure game, it is awesome, but generations ahead? last gen you could've made that claim, but not this gen. And those are not facts. You can say they are all you wish, but they aren't. They're your personal opinions. :wink:

You know, that's an excellent point. Perhaps a "flop" should be 6.9 or below... A "disappointment" can be between 7 to 7.9, and nothing that gets an 8 or over cannot be considered a flop. Who's with me?

EDIT: Whoops, "can" needed to be "cannot"

[QUOTE="shsonline"][QUOTE="-Ramirez-"][QUOTE="The_Game21x"]

[QUOTE="-Ramirez-"][QUOTE="DrPepper1998"][QUOTE="-Ramirez-"]Halo 3 will get high AA maximum. Why?

1. Because Halo 2 shouldn't have gotten AAA but GS fell for the hype. GS has learnt from their mistakes and won't let brand name and hype affect their scores again.
2. Halo 2 was saved by online multiplayer. Now Halo 3 has nothing big enough to save it like Halo 2 did.
3. The visuals look slightly better than Halo 2.
4. The game is essentially a rehash of Halo 2 with more brutes.
5. Halo gameplay is getting old and boring now. The same predictable gameplay isn't AAA worthy.

I have a gut feeling that MP3 could possibly be the best game in the last 5 years. From what Gamepro said about the intuitive controls and rediculously good graphics, I just don't know how another Sci-Fi First person could live up to it. Call me a fanboy, but no matter what, the game is going to make a huge splash in the genre.

If Halo 3's level design is anything like the previous two then perhaps.

Even as an FPS Metroid Prime is probably better than Halo. Even with lock-on, Prime is still more challenging and requires more skill than Halo. Halo even has n00b auto-aim which makes it completely inferior to PC FPS games.

And yes it is generations ahead I'm afraid kiddo. That's if you've played it of course which I doubt you have. Most games are defined by the action adventure genre, Prime doesn't have a definitive genre, that is how advanced it is.

Level design defines the MP series, and you could make the same argument for Halo. Both of them look like they'll live up to that.
