Who said IGN wasn't impressed with Halo 3, or anyone for that matter?

Most major previews for Halo 3(by major meaning:Gamespot, IGN, Joystiq, etc.)

Joystiq: Once the game popped up, we noticed that it looked, frankly (no pun intended) a lot more gorgeous than the multiplayer beta. We're not talking Crysis levels of photorealistic details here, but pretty close.

We weren't shown nearly enough to critique the single-player game, but so far it looks promising. We left Frankie to collapse into his gaming-induced coma, while we continued dreaming about possibly (hopefully?) being able to actually finish the fight.

IGN: If you've got any qualms about the visual fidelity of the single-player game, let's just put those to rest right off the bat.

Nearly everyone in attendance agreed that this was the footage that Microsoft should have closed the press conference with, as it surely would have impressed just about everyone in attendance. The game is definitely shaping up nicely, and the single-player campaign looks much better than the multiplayer

Gamespot: Well, what we saw wasn't quite final, but the graphics were undeniably better and more advanced than those seen in the beta. The game pops out right at you. The visuals are clear and crisp, as well as bright and colorful.

Bungie has the next couple of months to polish and bug fix, though what we saw looked to be almost ready for primetime. All we can say is that it's going to be a long 11 weeks until September 25.


Fanboys can hate, but what they miss kills them, in this case Halo 3

LET'S FINISH THIS FIGHT CHIEF!

September 25th

You should know that fanboys have selective reading. The few that have the capability to read, I mean.

some pople just aren't as hyped as for Halo 3 as the Halo fanboys are. It should be good, and I will buy it, I'm much looking forward to something newer like Bioshock (or even MP3 if it's done right)

This is System Wars - lots of people don't even bother to check facts and take what is said on other forums as truths. And then there are of course quite a few people who outright lie to make the competitors look bad.

"We're not talking Crysis levels of photorealistic details here, but pretty close." Read the post next time, it was right in the first "paragraph."

Ain't it funny how he's gone from being a Sony fanatic to a Hermit overnight? This guy ALWAYS makes me laugh. See, stuff like this and your sig-quote...yeah.

I don't think anyone is saying that the game doesnt look good. Most just say that it looks pretty much average - good. I don't know about you guys but I was expecting Halo 3 to be amazing on ALL levels. It just sounds like most gaming sites are MUCH more excited about other games rather than Halo 3. How does a game like Halo 3, which is the most hyped game in the past 3 years, be lost in the crowd of all the other games. Most sites didnt even talk about halo 3 all that much. That shows me they arent all that excited about it.They talkedmore about games like COD4, Killzone 2 and othersuch games.They think it will be good but nothing mind blowing. David at IGNxbox360 thinks its not much better looking than Halo 2.


"Halo 3 was... Halo. If you like the series, then I'm sure you'll like the final installment of the trilogy. I can't say that I see anything really new to the game, though, which is why I'm strongly considering passing the chance to play it. The graphics and gameplay seem unchanged from the last game, and while the music is still good... well, this is a videogame, not a soundtrack."

Yep, hes an undercover cow, just doesnt want to admit it, Ive seen many of his posts before. Hermit or Cow, I guess it doesnt matter really.

If that's so, he's the worst undercover 'agent' I have ever seen in my life. It's the equivalent of a German soldier, in full Wehrmacht apparel, adopting a British accent and saying he's English.

Maybe because there isn't really much to talk about right now. I mean, basically all they showed to the public was the trailer, which was..good. and then the CLOSED DOOR demo, which they can only really describe to us.
