^ All fanboy.

Wow. Can't you tell when someone isn't being serious? He's obviously mocking console gamers who use that line constantly when PC visuals are brought up.

It has been said on so many occasions especially with Crysis.

No, it's really not.

I'm not going to say it's "generic", but it's nowhere near one of the best looking games out there. It looks like it could have come out a year ago.

Wasn't Goldeneye the first one to use two sticks for aiming? I'd say that's pretty revolutionary.

TC failed. Photo mode not representative of actual product?

skrat_01

Now THAT I agree with.

Just what it looks like on my monitor, no question, no lies.

Your monitor must be quite the massive piece of ****, cause no way the game looks that jaggy and flat

...Goldeneye used one stick, I mean, you know, since the N64 had only one.

Two if you count the N64 C buttons as the analog. The GCN actually converted it made them into one, I think its safe to say that Goldeneye was the first that used the dual analog then.

I take it nobody knew that you could plug 2 n64 controllers in, set the controll options to 2.x and you could use one controller in each hand = dual stick.

My monitor is more high quality than your SD or HD TV.

And no that is how the game looks like.

serious?

That is AWESOME. I may just hookup my N64 just to do that.

Also if I remember correctly you could use the C buttons to move and strafe, and the stick to aim.

Also halo 3 runs natively at 640p which means the image gets stretched so that it fits on 720p hdtv's :lol:

hahaa i have the game and it looks better in photomode.

and its funny you only show the dark areas and the areas where the flood took over becuase they over'd gloss those areas.

actully the games looks meh in action and looking at it in person on your hdtv.

any way if you have a problem with me and myopinion just pm i give my gamertag and look at my acheivments i do own the game if you think im some random fanboy.

[QUOTE="skrat_01"][QUOTE="Pro_wrestler"][QUOTE="skrat_01"]

Hahaha.

This is Halarious.

The pics are nice, but Halo 3 is FAR from graphically underrated, and compared to MANY games its visuals are VERY average.

And those images are bumped up with AA when uploaded thankyouverymuch.

Pro_wrestler

Ok thanks for your opinion but once you mention *Visuals* is when your whole arguement became opinionated. For the most part "Graphics" are a technical term and some may be right to say that its not the best in that department but that doesn't say that Halo 3 has underrated visuals because 'visuals' includes its art-direction which I think is better any other FPS' this year, including Bioshock--I haven't played through the full version of Bioshock yet so I'm going to assume that it doesn't have large varied open enviorments like most FPS lack.

So what have I learned today in System Wars? Halo 3's visuals are more beautiful than your Crysis, Gears of War, COD4 or Killzone 2(Especially COD4 and KZ2)--"Photomode adds AA to Halo 3 screens" is the new posting trend when trying to bash Halo 3(At least provide a valid source saying so).

sigh, nice over analysis.

Halos art direction is 'MEH' compared to many games (yes Bioshock included), and that doesn't stop the graphics AND visuals from being average.

And Halo 3 DOESN'T have 'large open environment's - It features long corridors, that grow progressively larger when you are outdoors. Just like Halo CE.

And no Halos visuals are not as good as many of those games (minus COD4), and its graphics are sure as hell not as good . And no Photo mode DOES add AA. It is blatantly obvious, and hell I know first hand - as I was playing the game on my Xbox 5 minutes ago.

This thread proves Halo fanboys are all the same.

The game looks average, compared to other FPSs out this year. Get over it.
Grasping for straws.

Point is..Games like Bioshock, Gears, Killzone 2 etc aren't like Halo 3. Sure its linear but it has more than one thing going on besides "Goon 1, Goon 2, Goon 3 attack in group A in a closed corridor" and Halo 3 still manages to look good or better in some ways. I wasn't aware that BioShock or Gears had a couple of 50 foot mechanical robot while simultaneously accounting for more than 20 or 30 other AI on screen be it in air or on ground. So given all that I just mentioned about Halo 3, what makes those above games more graphically impressive than Halo 3 since that seems to be the general thought on these boards.


"But but it doesn't have 1 million polysgons and 200xAA on that branch in the left corner"
So what, doesn't take away from the fact that all you can argue againts is how it may not be technically impressive in comparison to other games(which you have no way of proving) and that once you mention visuals is when your talking opinion..and as far as how Halo 3 looks, its more beautiful..In my opinion(Something you don't get) than all those games I mentioned..accept it cause theres no way to change what someone thinks.
*Waits on you to start preaching some non-sense*



You're right about the whole opinion thing (obviously) but technically speaking, Halo 3 does not look as good as Crysis, Gears of War, COD 4 etc.

Considering all the opinion talk your going on about, you may want to ask yourself why you're arguing with somebody who is also sharing his personal opinion. *Looks at your comment about preaching*
