Whilst I wouldn't compare it to Gears of War, or the forthcoming Bioshock, it certainly is a whole lot prettier than Halo 2.

Thank-fully, the games visuals have been cleaned up and it shows straight off the bat, the lighting is looking fantastic, the AA has been turned up and the game just feels a whole lot smoother. Other then that, the multiplayer is practically the same as the beta with the exception of a few tweaks that you can only notice after picking up the controller.

So when was keeping the core of the multiplayer the same a bad thing ? Like many have said before its a sequel its not supposed to be different from the game before it.

Actually I'm perfectly fine with that. I didn't think the beta graphics were as terrible as most were saying. To hear that it runs smoother than before with more tweaks is great news. Thanks. :D

Topic name saying: "Halo single player looks worse the bioshock and multi looks the same as the beta" of course it's single wont be as good as Bioshock, Halo is a Multiplayer game and Bioshock (like Prime) is a single player game, and the Beta wasn't bad so smoother gameplay and a few twicks means it will be good.

You were pretty selective with your quotes. How 'bout these from the same article:

"The graphics in the single player campaign looked a whole heap better then the beta we played a few months ago, in fact it looked FANTASTIC especially later in the level when this HUGE mother ship just comes from behind you, and flies above your head and heads straight. The ship is no more then 20 feet above you, and you can see extreme detail on the craft, it literally brought almost everyone in the presentation on their knees with a loud AWEEEEE."

"All in all I was impressed with Halo 3, although it doesn't differ much from Halo 2 gameplay wise, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. I just am worried that the fact that it's feeling like the same game again will cause people to start getting tired of it after a while. Ahh who am I kidding, this is Halo, people wont get tired of it.

The single player looks fantastic and will be sure to please and the multiplayer is at its ****c best, it feels a lot more like Halo 1 and Halo 2 joined together to make one mega Halo game. September 25th couldn't come any sooner."

I can quote some more if you want.

1: Halo never really was about the graphics. It was about the Gameplay. It's artsyle is where it counts. But...graphics do help. And luckily halo 3 has that:

The graphics in the single player campaign looked a whole heap better then the beta we played a few months ago, in fact it looked FANTASTIC especially later in the level when this HUGE mother ship just comes from behind you, and flies above your head and heads straight. The ship is no more then 20 feet above you, and you can see extreme detail on the craft, it literally brought almost everyone in the presentation on their knees with a loud AWEEEEE.

2: The rest of that first sentance: it certainly is a whole lot prettier than Halo 2.The lighting textures and draw distance have all been enhanced, and the outdoor levels that we were shown seem massive in comparison to what we saw in either Halo: Combat Evolved or in Halo 2.

3: He wasn't talking about about BETA graphics. He was talking about how the controls and gameplay were similar to the BETA: Thank-fully, the games visuals have been cleaned up and it shows straight off the bat, the lighting is looking fantastic, the AA has been turned up and the game just feels a whole lot smoother.

Atleast it won't have host advantage... But Halo 3 can have N64 graphics and it will still sell like hot cakes.

The art style completely destroys Killzone's monochrome color scheme.

TC, I'm in no way a Halo fan (furthest thing from that actually) but Halo isn't about super amazing graphics. The game looks great, the story is ending, this game is going to be epic whether it looks like a N64 game or Gears of War. When graphics look as good as they do already, any more upgrades does minimal things for the game. I'd take superior physics over simply great graphics.
