New Halo 4 Multiplayer Video and Halo 2 Anniversary Announcement.

[QUOTE="casharmy"]

[QUOTE="T-razor1"]

Lets get something clear. Are you talking about straight up visuals or "looks bad" meaning gameplay? If you're talking about the latter I will admit that the whole ordinance drops stuff will feel a bit off in a Halo game but I'm sure I'll adjust.

If you're talking about straight up visuals I don't see how it looks bad. I'm seeing improvements in lighting alone that gives it a really nice look. I'm also seeing an improvement in particle effects and just an overall bump in polygons at least in the spartans. Also you didn't think some of those Spartan Ops maps looked great? C'mon now bro.

Ninja-Hippo

I think it is alot easier for me to be honest (in a negative way) about sony games because people don't make assumptions that I trying to bash the system when I am UBER harsh in my opinion.

when you say 'C'mon now bro' :P It makes me not want to tell you what I honestly think. I am probably a harsher critic than you are...alot harsher if you really think me saying this is unbelievable. In this entire generation of games only demon's Souls have brought me total fulfillment and exceeded my expectations for a game on all levels.

I am guessing you are a halo fan, but I would buy a high quality exclusive for any system I own but I am not going to preach to you about my standards or what I think is good and not. Sony looks like they are on summer vacation this year and Halo 4 is honestly the biggest exclusive to look foward to on consoles over all...to me everything looks very 'cheap' in quality.

And to clarify...I was looking at the whole thing (graphics + gameplay + animaions ect)

I genuinely think that when it comes to Halo you have some sort of uber-cynical goggles that you just can't take off.

Yes, I do.........your problem is you assume I ever take them off at all. +1 for making one correct analisis of me, -2 for trying to make the argument that is has anything to do with Halo in particualr.

I wear those same glasses all the time for every game I look at.

Sorry if that is hard for you to accept, my standards are the same, Bro...I have said negative things about games on all the systems I own, I don't pick brand names to hate like you think.

"Every video, every interview, every screen, your opinion is always negative. Looks like nothing. What's so special? What looks good about that?"

:|

Ninja..Ninja..Ninja where oh where are you getting this from? Please for the love of god stop projecting. What you are saying here is a COMPLETE and uter untruth.

Where are you pulling this from? "what's so special?"? I have never said that "looks like noting"? Complete fabrication on your part. Are you thinking of any random Sony fanboy who ever bashed this game and are now trying to apply that to me? People wonder why I lash out in posts sometime. let me tell you NOTHING gets uner my skin more than when people make up things to try to make some kind of despeate point.

Let me tell you in the most plite way I can, I have said none of the things you are talking about bro just stop. Every Screen? every interview? dude I hardly even post in halo theads, I have even defended halo from what I looked as blind fanboy bashing from sony fans. You are completely off base and you need to stop projecting that mentality to everyone who doesn't praise MS. I think sony is a better game company than MS but I am no fanboy and it doesn't give you any right to make these wild and false claims.

Damn! Halo 4 is beautiful!

Plagueless

How are you in any better postion than me, being the fanboy that you are and only owning a xbox360 when I own a 360, PC and PS3? I am not happy if any system I own doesn't have games I can look foward to playing. keep living in your fanboy bubble. both consoles look bad this year to me.

Don't care about Halo 2 Ani, unless it's the same reskinned MP.

The graphics look much better than Reach, but I'm hating all the extra crap they are adding on to the multiplayer. KEEP IT SIMPLE!

They are turning Halo in CoD. :(

I'm not surprised at the Halo 2 HD remake announcement either, but that's not a bad thing. It will sell well, and it's good fan service.

Halo 2 remake is a dumb idea. The campaign was weak. That game was multiplayer through and through, and seeing as they're obviously not going to re-master that in HD but will instead just remake the maps for Halo 4, i can't think of any reason why you'd but the anniversary and not just download the maps. Ninja-Hippo

Always great when a series copies COD..lulz..Heil68

Yeah like Killzone 3! LMAO

Highly scripted? I remember that demo, and I don't see what was so great about it. But yeah, Halo 2's campaign sucked.

Can't wait to try out the Scattershot.

Wish there was a beta though. :[

Notice the big blue square in the bottom right corner?

That's a trailer :|

You dont buy a trailer... ( maybe xbox gamers do? ) The blue button takes you to the page where you buy Halo 2 for PC.

So they're techincally going to remake H2 maps for people to buy? Because no sane person would buy Halo 2 for the single player.

Halo 2 was my most favorite campaign! Remake would be great!

I can hear your nervous laughter.

I don't think you understand what Gaijin means, it's anyone who is not from Japan and they look down on Gaijin. Heads up, I'm pretty sure your a Gaijin too, not sure why your picking on the western countries here, your probably from one of them anyway.

You bashing of western countries makes no sense. Your probably not even Japanese. Also I don't think sites get paid for reviews per se, but I do think there are biased ones and they listen more to ad pressure and hype than anything else.

Just about any game that get's a lot of ad time or is hyped really big will always get a high score. But Halo might legitmentaly score well here.

Oh boo-hoo a slight grammar error, who are you Stevo? Your from the west too I'm sure, I don't know why you think Japanese culture is superior, if your not born in Japan you are a Gaijin if you go there, even if you live there and become naturalized and everything, you will still be seen as a Gaijin and looked down upon.

Western culture has it's flaws, but we are still good and I don't see why you are so hateful towards it. Like I said your probably not even Japanese, your just a western kid who is obsessed with Japanese pop culture like Anime or whatever.

[QUOTE="k2theswiss"][QUOTE="AcidSoldner"] The classic playlist was brought up twice and taken down each time. People b!tched to Bungie for one, they got it and it was taken down once they realized it was a small vocal minority that wanted it and traffic was super low. Once 343i took over the same whiners b!tched that Bungie had betrayed them by taking down the classic playlist so 343i reinstated it and, again, took it down due to no one giving a f*ck.

Halo 2 is still up on GFWL (small community though), Halo 3 is still kicking with 15,000 or so, and Reach has 72,000 on right now. There is no reason for a "classic" playlist in Halo 4 when the previous 3 games in the series are still readily available to play.

If your born or raised outside of Japan you are still considered a Gaijin regardless, only people who are Japanese and born and raised in Japan are considered to be Japanese by their culture.

Technically Japan is considered to be a "western" culture by UN standards, it's a Democracy with a free market, however I don't think its superior to the us. In some areas perhaps, but not all.

I just don't understand why you dislike western societies even though you live in them. You wouldn't be accepted in your own ancestral homeland.
