[QUOTE="Rhubarb9"][QUOTE="II-FBIsniper-II"] Any credibility you had just went down the drain in a single post. Nice job.shadow_hosi

its so true, we are so used to lag-free cheat-free environments

...*sigh* Know what, I'm not even going to bother anymore.

Meh...sales=/=quality. Each game has progressively gone downhill. Halo 3 plays at a sluggish pace compared to the other 2. They give things like power drains, regenerators, and bubble shields for people who are terrible at shooting.

why is unfortunantly for them? what do your standards have to them?

GTA4 did that quite a while ago way before the PC version came.Yes it's still 2 systems but many people dont keep in mind that,

PS3+360 console sales \=\ as many different people.

Cuz obviously there will be many people who bought both. Some 360 owners may have got it for their PS3's so you just cant say that GTA4 needs to sell 10 million on one console to be as proportionately popular as halo..

Even though I own the game I'm no where near a fan. Actually I was disappointed with it. It's really not my type of game. However I'm happy that there is some good news in the gaming community as of late. Hopefully good news starts coming left and right for all platforms and consoles.

[QUOTE="Master-Thief-09"]In before Wii Sports, in before Wii isn't next gen.rofflecopter_
wii sports sold 0 at retail in the u.s., it came with the wii, also...it isnt hd

Not every country. Wii has two titles at retail that pass that. Mario kart and wiiplay. And smash is probably going to hit 10 mil before halo does. So my friend you lose this thread. Better luck next thread.

[QUOTE="Master-Thief-09"][QUOTE="6matt6"] The physics blow any game out of the water? REALLY?ujjval16
Speaking of water, the water physics/effects are the best I've seen this gen. (on consoles, don't know about PC)

idk bioshocks water effect were amazing and better than halo's IMO

I gotta disagree with you there. Mainly because I thought the exact same thing as I played through Bioshock for the first time. Upon closer inspection however I found that the water system in bioshock isnt as ''dynamic'' as halos. its water system was really just a few layers of high rez textures, it was pretty static.Whislt in halo, the water actually conforms and ripples around objects it flows past or are thrown into it.

HOWEVER that was with the old unreal engine 3, think about the unreal 3.5s new water physics (ala GEARS 2) and how they'll look in Bioshock 2!!

that'll ''blow halo out of the water'' for sure :P

(no pun intended)

So a game with an average 9.3 rating and the most played Xbox Live game for 2008 is just "Meh"?

Lol. Have you played Halo: CE and Halo 3 in succession? Halo: CE is the slowest paced out of all the Halos.

I hate Halo 3. Can't stand how floaty it feels and how unsatisfying shooting is.

Nah, I see his point. It takes a lot longer for fights to be resolved in 3 than in 1 or 2. It's slight, but I feel as if the game is going at 9/10 its previous speed.

Um, not only was that not his point (look at his reference to Halo 3's equipment), the reason the battles felt longer was simply because the scale of each one was increased by a large amount, especially with Halo 3. I was talking about the single player there. In multiplayer, it's much more obvious. It's as if Halo: CE's multiplayer and Halo 3's are two different games. I should know. I am the resident Halo fanboy here.

I felt that Halo 3 was so overrated......but whatever. It's a Halo game, so it will sell a ton of copies.

The best part of that game was that hammer weapon - now, THAT was fun. Oh yeah, and running down guys using the ghost. That was pretty cool too. But aside from that, I felt the single-player experience was disappointing. Did anybody else get bothered by the fact that the game kept having you cover the same ground again and again? I guess Bungie did that to help fit the game on DVD.

And I didn't like the multiplayer experience mostly because I believe in quick kills, and shields are just plain lame. I tried to enjoy the multiplayer, but I just couldn't get into it like I did with COD 4. Oh well. Just not my cup of tea.

Very soon, what like 5 months? VGchartz, yeah I went there, have it pegged at 8.99 million sold, so I don't think 10 million sold will be a reality anytime soon even if though it is differently going to happen at some point or another during the 360's lifespan.

Halo 3 is dead? If PD0 so-called "failed", why would you rate it a 9.0 out of 10? That's some pretty harsh rating fr a complete failure of a game. :roll:

Even better, Gamespot gave it a 9.0, but I would give it a 7.0. Also, Syferonik gave it a 9.0 because he played the online multiplayer for months.

Because Halo is a great game, with great gameplay in a great campaign, great multiplayer, great story, and with great graphics. It excelled in pretty much all aspects. Oh, and to top it all of it was just damn fun to play.

Ah, couldn't have said it better myself. Though I'd replace "great" with "superb". ;)

edit: changed amazing to superb, since not everything was amazing. :P
