I mean the beta did look really bad and besides a few new guns and maps there is nothing new. Forza 2 is basically Forza 1.5, is Halo 3 just Halo 2.5?. Are Bungie cut out for it anymore?, let's look at the evidence.NickJayD
I really do not enjoy replying to these type of threads because how naive people are in here. The biggest change was the controls and the addition of equipment which altered the gameplay considerably. It was like the big change from Halo to Halo 2, the hi jacking vehicles and duel wielding, only this is much bigger.
Halo, great single player campaign got everyone hyped for the sequel
Halo 2, terrible campaign that destroyed peoples enthusiasm for the Halo storyline, just awful story telling and ending. Very nice multiplayer
Halo 2's campaign was far more complex and deeper than Halo's campaign - was it better? Yes - was it more fun? No. The original Halo casted a fairly large shadow, and Bungie just didn't have the time to create the game everyone wanted it to be - but the game was still amazing none-the-less.Halo 3, terrible last gen graphics for the multiplayer beta and old gameplay that has scared many people into believing this game is going to suck. Can Halo 3 deliver the best gaming expierience and graphics for 360 ?, it shouldbe able to asthe most hyped game for the system, but all sign point to being a flop.
Old... old gameplay? I believe what makes Halo amazing IS the gameplay, Halo received a 10 in gameplay, Halo 2 also received a 10 in gameplay, I wonder what Halo 3 is going to get? The gameplay is pure non-stop fun, whether you're with your friends, or even family you ca play a four player split screen action of non stop fun. Or, play some co-op with some friends. Why do you think hundreds of thousands of people STILL play Halo 2 online?Nothing at all about the single player graphics, why?, because they're not up to par probably, if you've got a game you're proud of, you will show it off. We saw RE5 two years ago, loads of pics and video of Crysis every week,yet three months away from launch and still nothing on Halo 3 single player graphics, VERY STRANGE AND WORRYING. I think Bungie have run out of ideas and don't have the skills of a developer like Epic to deliver the graphics that lemmings want. Turn 10 let us all down with Forza 2, be honest you expected a lot more, Bungie are doing the same as the beta has shown. And it's not just me, look here for beta players who no longer care about Halo 3
Clearly you don't know Bungie Studios- you're just a thirteen year old who thinks he knows what he is talking about, but you don't have a clue in the world. Bungie has always been tight-lipped about the single player, from Marathon to Halo 2 - always have and always will buddy. As for the graphics - they look great considering it's a BETA and the game can now go through 4 months of pure polish.
I'm afraid you've never seen any campaign footage, but only alpha and beta footage of multiplayer to judge Halo 3 on teh graphics which is in my opinion, retarded. I'll take Bungie's word for it when they say things like the following: "What is going to strike people is scale - that's real stuff way out there, we pushed it as far as we could push it." "You know, if people showed just a pre-rendered movie, then there's always going to be speculation about well, yeah sure your engine not going to be able to do that - and what I think we're trying to show firmly is that our engine can do the stuff we say it's going to do and it's doing it right now." "This is the game, this is the engine, this is what Halo 3 is going to look like."
I want it to be great, sadly I think it's going to be rubbish. Bungie already made big mistakes with Halo 2 single player and Halo 3 beta, what makes you think they won't mess up the rest of Halo 3?
You're closeminded - and naive. Halo 3 is going to be amazing whether you like it or not. Bungie Studios has realized the mistakes they have made in Halo 2, they're going to fix them and improve upon what was great in Halo 2. For the multiplayer... read my quote from the Bungie.net staff. We've nly seen a mere glimpse of what is to comoe in Halo 3. You've seen all the new armour customizations, you've heard about teh four player co-op. Halo 3 is being working on with guys who did the movies LOTR and King Kong, they're helping Bungie by doing some ofthe cinematics. Bungie Studios has a MUCH larger crew this time around with around 100 guys, and they have an unlimittted budget (plus snacks!). Halo 3 has been in development for 2 and a half years now, so they're not being rushed.
