[QUOTE="Messiahbolical-"][QUOTE="Doctor-McNinja"][QUOTE="Messiahbolical-"] The majority of people didn't complain at all though. The biggest complaint about Halo 2 was that it changed too much from Halo 1. Therefore, like i just said, to say 'halo 2 was exactly the same as halo 1' is ridiculous, as it wasn't. It was different enough for people to complain that it was TOO different. 2 was the worse Halo out of CE, 2, and 3 IMO. I liked CE the best, then 3. But it's not like 2 was bad. I didn't think it changed much at all TBH. The biggest change was dual wielding but that's not saying much. It had a new engine, so the whole gameplay mechanic changed. It also took on a more serious visual tone. Everything just 'felt' different because of the new engine, from jumping to meleeing to throwing grenades.
Why are you asking me? I thought you said it was obvious to you that I haven't played it. I will tell you I haven't played a lot of it, mostly co-op firefight and a bit of the campaign at a friend's house... but the reason I say it doesn't feel much different is because you're a normal ODST... not a spartan. You're not supposed to feel like Master Chief but in ODST you don't feel much different at all. Aside from the lack of radar and a few other disadvantages, you still have the ODST visor that helps you out and balances it so you don't feel much weaker than MC if at all. I don't know, maybe it's just me or maybe I'll need to play through the entire campaign to really feel a difference... but from what I played if it wasn't for the visor differences, I'm not sure if I'd know I was even playing as an ODST or Master Chief.
Just the thought that Bungie is making it lets me know it will be good. I'm hoping the 360's price is down again by the time it comes out though. Then maybe I'll buy one.
Lol true. It wasn't that great besides firefight... And it definitely should have been cheaper, or downloadable...
And I know there isn't much information but you have to keep it in the context of who Bungie is.
Their games are already being thrown off to the side and its not like they are blind from noticing it, and they are gonna have to try much harder with Reach, which I expect them to.
I don't think Halo games are being thrown off to a side, halo 3 probably still has the most played MP this gen and ODST sold in its first week more than most games sell in a lifetime. I think they know Halo became a fad so they are trying to milk it the most before they think about making anything different. Reach is going to be more of the same I bet. Well Bungie's not gonna be milking Halo cause Reach is the last game. Anyways, to a company, would you rather stick with something that's tried and works or spend a lot of money on a new IP that might not sell well?

Well that's the reason Hollywood stagnated recently doing remakes of foreign movies and classics. I don't care if the company only wants money but for the users it surely sucks that innovation could become little by little a thing of the past.
