According to System Wars:

Halo 3 looks like Halo 2

Halo Reach looks like Halo 3

what we can deduce from these regular comments made against Halo?

1)Reach, flat-out sucks, graphically

2)The Original Xbox was a freaking beast

3)Fanboys are just plain dumb

good thread though, I see the Intel picture and I knew what the thread was about:)

Halo has not been about the graphics even though I think they will look good. ITs been about the game play. Which is has. Just like the N64 Golden eye that its gameplay and movements are based on. FUN its what gaming is about. :)

From the technical standpoint Reach looks quite good for the console game. Textures are quite high-res and polycount is incredible. But from the artistical standpoint it looks awfully boring. Why the environment textures are so ugly, despite being high-res? Seriously, look at those gray walls:

It is something comparable to a 2003 game, but not 2010!

Yea guys didn't you know? Graphics are all in the color saturation.

That's why killzone 2 looks like pong :P

It's just Bungie needs some guys that have a degree in arts. And better texture artists.

For comparison, every Valve game since HL2 looks great artistically, despite Source engine being an painfully outdated piece of software.

That particular map takes place next to a decommisioned ship. Are decommisioned ships not supposed to look like a giant rig of metallic structures now?

It looks great, art is opinion and it's my opinion that it looks great.

Play the game before judging its damn visuals from some suspect BETA pics(also low quality bullshots) that don't even look like the actual finnished game. Players don't love it for nothing. And i ain't defending the game, my common sense is taking over, which is something that seems rare on these forums.

What, gamers buy games to look at them now a days? 'The hell, might as well rent a movie and watch it in HD, for a couple of days, rather then buying a game. Saves a lot a hard earned $, or just but a fantastic graphic demo. Or, even better, sell everything and go around the world. Plenty of fantastic visuals.

Even "decent" graphics are subjective, it seems, the expectations are getting bigger and bigger for each's perspective, man, nothing is good in exaggeration, and that simple factual saying applies to anything. Am i wrong? Tell me that one becoming more and more exaggerated regarding expectations is a good thing.

Can't wait to see what on Earth is going to happen to gaming in 20 years, with this type of mentality from devs and gamers alike.

Erm any game has sweet graphics when you use bullshots. Even the rather mediocre looking Halo: Reach.

For example:

hd5870corei7
that is such a blatant bullshot,good choice anyway, on topic, those screens are from the multiplayer beta and whoever said it doesn't have AA is totally wrong, Halo reach does have AA and runs in 720p "Our contention is that it is indeed 720p in that there are 720 progressive lines of resolution. However, as per our analysis of the original alpha footage posted from Bungie's first ViDoc, horizontal resolution is slightly cut down, giving native rendering at 1152x720." http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-vs-halo-reach-beta-article you have to actually play Halo reach to realise how good this game looks in motion and to experience the sheer scale of each level, it may not be graphics king material but it sure is a good looking game.

Halo 3 didn't have the greatest graphics either (not graphics king status, anyway), but that didn't stop it from being one of the best-selling games of this generation and far and away the best-selling exclusive of this generation. I guess what I'm trying to say is...so what? (And this post is even coming from someone that isn't a big Halo fan by any stretch; I haven't really enjoyed a Halo game since Combat Evolved.)

Some people just can't be convinced that graphics aren't the be-all, end-all of a good game. Graphics can contribute to a good game, but they can't save a bad one.
