I know people talk about this all the time, but I just got the beta and man they are some good graphics, IMO better than any-other 360 game bar GEOW. You have to play this game in HD it's amazing, trust me.

I totally agree, My friend took a picture of GOW and compared it with some Halo 3 ingame shots...In some instances halo 3 looked better.

I still think fight night looks better then halo or gears ...

Anyways, onto subject, ya there pretty good. The only problem i find is that there is only so much they can do, becuase some things about the game are sorta cartoony (like the suits, not in a bad way, just sort of that "out there" design) so just in my head, it will never look as good as gears or fight night, becuase there is nothing human about then to identify with. Still good, it just has its limitations.

Athough i am a big fan of the textures in the game.

The lighting is just beautiful, and the colour is so vibrant I don't see why some people say the graphics are not that good, morons.

It looks nice but I don't agree that it is the best looking game.

I agree with you 100 percent. The great thing about Halo's graphics is the artwork..very unique in many aspects.

You can really change how the suits look they will always kind of look cartoony but there is a lot of detail on them.  What really stands out in halo 3 is the lighting and the gorgeous environments.

on my hd t.v., halo 3 does NOT look that great. I was defending the graphics until I played the beta and i can confirm that the graphics ARE mediocre. When I play gears right afterwards the difference is overwhelming. But the game IS still fun.

No gaming sight can tell you any different than what you percieve.

Though I  usualy wont judge on a beta or demo, I have to agree that the graphics so far are quite underwhelming. Sure many games look better after the demo. But this is Halo 3, what MS trains people to drool for so they should have made it look stunning from the get go. Just my thought, and yes I have a 42" LCD

ya but you also can't have somthing like fight night or gears w/ 16 ppl running around a giant area w/ tons of explosions and grass blowing in the wind and stuff like that. halo 3 has all that going on, and it has great visuals, plus there are all these subtle little details in halo 3 that i can't realy explain, but they make the environments look and feel alive, as if it has history, and ppl have actually been there and lived in it. so IMO the art direction alone puts it above something like gears.

Says the dude who gave Gears 1.0 and has tons of Ps2 and PS3 games. Play the game, or shutup. Most of us will like you to do the latter.

Yeah, theres an improvement but its a hop forward rather than a lep.  I think people were expecting there to be a huge leap forward in graphics.  This is not the case, as can be seen in your screenshot comparison link.  There is obviously some improvements on the graphics but clearly the energy of this development team went into gameplay.  My opinion based on camparing the 2 games.  Halo 3 looks to be good enough!  Especially with this idea of increasing player speed!

I agree 100%, however I wish the suits had some reflection (That is what makes the suits look cartoony).

I like the graphics and Bungie will make it better by the time they release the game.  Halo 3 is a great game and cannot stop playing the beta.  The gameplay rocks it is the best part of the game and cannot wait to play the campaign in September.

when I saw the beta screens I weren't all that impressed but once I tried it out and played it myself i got very pleased as it looks so much better in motion, though I would like it if the environment felt more alive, like seeing sand/snow sweeping across the land from the wind and that the time of the day would change as you play, with that said I'm still very happy with how it is and I know the final product will be even better :)

I hate the way the gun fire looks in all these screenshots, it's not too big of a deal but gears of war fire-blasts seem sooo much better

I'll third that. If the suits were shiny they'd be counterproductive. The suits are meant to aid in a combat situation but shiny would just be screaming to get shot at

Halo 3's graphics are a solid mediocre: better than some but not nearly as good as others.
