Bungie isn't releasing Halo 3 with the same charachters, weapons, and story, that was why TP flopped.

Tell me one character in TP that was reused besides the ones with the triforce. Also tell me one weapon that was the same...

Master Sword, Iron boots, all tunics, your bow, boomerang, you name a weapon or character from OoT and its in TP.

Wrong about tunics, Iron boots weren't magnatized in OOT. Boomerang and bow has been in plenty of Zelda games, same with Master Sword. 3 recycled weapons are in Halo also: Needler, Plasma Grenades, Energy Pistol. so there, Zelda and Halo recycle weapons. Owned much?



almost every game in halo as been recycled... the only ones that i can think off the top of my head that weren't recycled are the brute plasma gun, brute grenade gun, covenant carbine, covenant sniper rifle, smg, and plasma sword...everything else is in Halo: CE for example shot gun, sniper rifle, battle rifle, pistol, needler, 2 covenant plasma guns, grenade, plasma grenade, rocket launcher.  Am I missing anything else?

Okay, Bungie [and Microsoft] isn't going to let their huge franshise go out without a bang, as Marty O'Donnel [Music Composer for Bungie Studios] stated that Halo 3 is going to be like 'The Return of the King'. Frankie [Bungie.net Content Monkey] stated that in Halo 3, 'you're going to finish all the fights that you started in Halo 1'. They sound pretty confident that their game is going to kick some serious ass, right?

Not to mention due to the fact that Joseph Staten [Director of cinematics for Bungie(And wrote the story for Halo)] also stated that three levels were cut due to not enough time and he was dissapointed because of this. However, with Halo 3 been in development for quite some time now[It'll be three years on November 9th], and they know about their mistakes as well from Halo 2, I can not see Halo 3 getting less then AAA or less than a 9.6 for that matter. I could be wrong, but Bungie Studios won't dissapoint their fans this time around.

I don't mean to interrupt, but every gun in Halo 2 was changed to a large degree from Halo. Such as the pistol from Halo, in Halo 2 the pistol had no scope, and didn't fire the high-powered ammunition, instead the pistol is much smaller and pretty much worthless. The Assualt Rifle from Halo was replaced by the small and rapid firing Sub Machine Gun which can be duel wielded. The Battle Rifle was a new Human rifle which was not like any gun in Halo, I see it as Halo Pistol and Assualt Rifle combined to make the lethal Battle Rifle.

The Plasma Rifle was toned down hugely, and the paralyzing effect was removed, and with the Plasma Pistol, its homing in was increased hugely and was toned down as well. The Carbine was a new Covenant Rifle that was put in the game to counter the Battle Rifle, the Fuel-Rod Cannon which you couldn't use in Halo, you can use in Halo 2. Same with the Plasma Sword, which was feared in Halo. The Rocket Launcher in Halo 2 was toned down a littler bit, had a faster delay of firing and had a auto-lock on vehicles, which was a huge improvement. The Brute Plasma Rifle is similiar to the Plasma Rifle but has a more rarid fire and is a bit more powerful than the Plasma rifle.

The Brute Grenade Launcher is also a new weapon in Halo 2 which combined the explosive power of grenades and added a blade on the gun which is lethal for melee attacks. The Sniper Rifle in Halo 2 nearly the same but has a better scope, the Covenant were given a Sniper Rifle, named teh Beam Rifle, which was to counter the Sniper Rifle.

The Needler was toned down but had a more rapid and faster fire which made it more useful in multiplayer and single player. And the shotgun was given a shorter barrel which gave it a shorter firing distance but also made it more lethal in close quarters. Just wanted to show you the improvements that were made from Halo to Halo 2. But hey, if you think they're recycled, fine, you are entitled to your opinion.

I thought flops were games with scores under what they were hyped or having bad scores...

[QUOTE="amtentori"]This is not flamebait but rather consider it motivation for an intelligent discussion.

i believe that other FPS will overshadow whatever halo 3 brings to the table in terms of gameplay. even rfom will make it harder for rfom to get a higher score. i have yet to play rfom and i havent obviously played halo 3 but im sure that they are both great.

lets begin with the good and the bad about rfom. the game has good graphics, detailed and varied environments, diverse weapons, good ai, good online mp with up to 40 ppl and no lag, etc. what score did it get? 8.6 why? it was a generic fps.. a good one that did everything well but failed to bring anything new. another example is zelda tp, the best zelda game ever made in many ways but its familiarity with previous zelda games and a cookie cutter formula got it a score of 8.8.
other games on the 360 will also hurt halos score. gears is an awesome as is rainbow six vegas. how good do halos graphics have to be to give us the wow factor that gears gave us? will halo have better team tactics than vegas? will halo 3 be as interactive as bioshock? will it be as vast as mass effect?

halo 3 is not an original ip anymore... how much can it satisfy us apart from the fact that its halo and we are finishing the fight?

tell me.. what will halo 3 bring to the table apart from possibly slightly superior graphics? how much can it bring to the fps genre that has been done before or that will be done this year before it? how good can fps multiplayer get?

a part of me wants halo to be a great game because i plan on playing it someday and hopefully further justify a purchase of a 360, another part of me wants halo to get a low score to behold the chaos that would ensue in system wars.

what do you think?

Dude I made a Halo thread for people like you, use that is instead of this crap. lol

And I love the idea that Halo 3 shouldn't exist or has nothng. That's like saying Lord of the Rings: Return of the King shouldn't have been mad as a book or movie because what's the point, it will all be the same and nothing will be different and it can't satisfy blah blah blah.... Halo 3 is a part ofa franchise that may even continue after this one who knows. People love the Master Chief, people love the Halo world and honestly, Halo's stories having been boring to me but that alone shows how amazing the gameplay is. The stories mean little to me but I love the Gameplay SO MUCH so that I can still call Halo one of the top games of all time IMO and franchises IMO.

Saying it will flop is obviously flamebait cause it is a very stupid remark that only invites hatred and bitterness in posts.

You sound like another person hating the fact that Halo is not on their console of choice and not exclusive to their console of choice. Please people get over it...Halo 3 will not Flop. It may do a 8.5 but we Halo people honestly don't care. I don't care if it gets 2.0 I just love this game so much and it's gameplay. You obviously don't because if you loved it's gameplay you wouldn't be making your comments.



i dont hate halo and ive played, beaten  and enjoyed halo 1 and 2.  Did you even read my post? regardless of the score halo 3 will be a quality game and will sell well. the purpose of my thread is that halo 3 might not get the score fanboys want it to get. its not flamebait as im not sure it will either. im trying to start intelligent discussion. the better halo 3 is the better. only extreme blind fanboys want to see bad games. the more good games we get the better..i dont care what system they are on.

Halo 3 isn't the only sequel that hasn't brought much new stuff to the table.  Heck, there's quite a few games out there like that and they still score reasonably well.

I didn't say I did.  And from what I can infer from Halo 2, Halo 3 won't change drastically.  Not many sequels do if the previous game(s) has/have been successful.

how does common sense say that halo 3 can't score below a 9 here?

I didn't say that. I said that it won't flop. But considering the recent gamespot interview with Bungie, I'm pretty certain that they're putting forth the effort to assure that it will indeed be AAA...

they're recycled weapons..yes they were modified to a degree no one denies that.  I like halo but the point I can see TC implying is right.  It's gotten a little dull.  Yes I'm sure Halo 3 will have new things to offer but will it be a significant difference?  We just have to wait and see.  I'm still going to pick it up but I'm enjoying alot of quality FPS on pc as it is.  I'm bored of Halo 2 and I hope Halo 3 can bring back some of that juice I liked to drink so much

You sound like another person hating the fact that Halo is not on their console of choice and not exclusive to their console of choice. Please people get over it...Halo 3 will not Flop. It may do a 8.5 but we Halo people honestly don't care. I don't care if it gets 2.0 I just love this game so much and it's gameplay. You obviously don't because if you loved it's gameplay you wouldn't be making your comments.



i dont hate halo and ive played, beaten and enjoyed halo 1 and 2. Did you even read my post? regardless of the score halo 3 will be a quality game and will sell well. the purpose of my thread is that halo 3 might not get the score fanboys want it to get. its not flamebait as im not sure it will either. im trying to start intelligent discussion. the better halo 3 is the better. only extreme blind fanboys want to see bad games. the more good games we get the better..i dont care what system they are on.



i think he has a reading comprehension problem... poor soul... i fear for him when he hits college

There is no way Halo will flop. To many fans to let it flop. SpruceCaboose


See thats another thing too. I can understand why there are so many fans ever since the first HALO but if HALO 3 did flop there will be too many fanboys denying it and even if they knew it flopped they are still going to try and justify their opinion on saying how its better than any other game or some crap like that.

Halo 3 isn't the only sequel that hasn't brought much new stuff to the table. Heck, there's quite a few games out there like that and they still score reasonably well.

Ptolemaueus

oh so you have already played halo3 then?

I didn't say I did. And from what I can infer from Halo 2, Halo 3 won't change drastically. Not many sequels do if the previous game(s) has/have been successful.

you should really read the halo3 updates at bungie.com..if you did you would know that there are alot of major changes that will be done in halo3 to differ itself from halo2.

Well, excuse me for not knowing about this.

sorry i didnt mean to sound like an ass..just filling you in

It might. If Zelda flopped, anything is possible.TrueReligion_
Just because Gamespot gave it a flopping score of an 8.8, it doesn't mean it sucks, nor should you listen to just one editor. But if you must, at least listen to more then just one gamepsot editor, you'd realize overall it got a AAA score. Zelda: TP is hardly a flop in my book.

Very true, so in the end, regardless of how good or bad Halo 3 ends up being, it will be a success. With that said, I do believe that Halo 3 won't disappoint and will even "wow" us, but that's just me hoping.

I can not see Halo 3 getting less then AAA or less than a 9.6 for that matter. I could be wrong, but Bungie Studios won't dissapoint their fans this time around.

Spartan070
don't keep your hopes up for the latter expectation...

Bungie has never disappointed its true fans, only the stragling whiners that cry because they hate this asanine thing.

by the time Halo 3 comes out, there will be many games that will have scored AAA, and they will look just as good (if not better). to get a 9.6 ( the new 10) you need superior everything, be it graphics, online, etc.
