Actually im a succesfuly tertiary student so my english levels are at a high standard, so once again you make an inaccurate accusation as per usual, how about you stop attacking, and more analysis which you have not done at all, did you spot the reference there?

KorruptRaiden

This is so much BS my eyes watered. Seriously. I got you being in the 14-18 range. You read as a person from my own age group. I got you as maybe a C or B student, you aren't illiterate but you need work. That is, if you are still in school. Hell, I am a dropout and I come off as well read compared to some of your posts. I bet the people would appreciate it if you stopped lying and just played it straight. Your claims are so hard to beleive I think people would burrow under the streets to avoid youu at this point. You did a great job of makijng yourself a nuisance.

Just for ****s and giggles I looked up KorruptRaiden's Halo 3 stats. Apparently he regularly plays a game he doesn't like more than a fan, like me. In fact, he's played roughly a thousand more matches than I have...

Just something to roll around in the old noggin.

ahaha hes played 1400 more games than me, this makes everything he said even more confusing

Are you being serious? I'm not sure if you're making fun of me or not. Well, whether you're being sincere or sarcastic, I'll take a shot at your post. First off, I can't prove your opinion is wrong, at least not on something as subjective as your evaluation of a piece of art. However, as I've noted before, I can make some judgment of the rationale behind your opinion.

Palantas

I was being utterly serious. You're quite notorious in these forums for doing...what you do. I've seen you do...what you do. From what I've read now and in the past, I would dare say that you either have or are pursuing a career in politics, seeing as such polished debate skills are rarely seen outside that field. Anyway...

I'm going to have to do this in separate posts.

[QUOTE="Palantas"] Half of your post real estate is given over to complaints about the floating nature of the game's gravity. Does the word "nitpick" come to mind? Would it have dramatically affected your gaming experience if you jumped half as high and slightly faster?

I don't see complaints about the floaty nature of the game as "nitpicking" because it really does filter down into a lot of aspects of the gameplay. If it were just "OMG, I can jump really high", there would hardly be a problem. Besides, my complaint wasn't about the jumping. It was about the fact that I didn't feel like I was anything more than a levitating pair of arms as a result of the "floaty" nature of the game. Half-Life 2 also had this problem, minus the jumping.

[QUOTE="Palantas"] Why the hell should the guns recoil? Did the guns recoil in Doom? Quake? Unreal? Real-world weapons modeling is found in a completely different sub-genre of shooter.

Maybe I wasn't clear about this. It's not so much the lack of recoil that bothers me, but rather the shooting itself. The sounds, the feel, and the overall experience of shooting things in Halo. I don't want to say that it doesn't feel "real", because it would be kind of preposterous to expect a game about a super-soldier in space to be any more real than it's premise, but I would say that, to me, it just doesn't feel fun. For a game under the genre of First-Person Shooter, that's a biggie, given the fact that shooting is a good 95% of what you do in the game.

The graphics complaint is one of the oddest ones levied at Halo 3, and from my estimation, more of a gaming forum meme than a conclusion bred of serious analysis. It's also one taken to ridiculous extremes: Halo 3 has the worst graphics of any game you've seen on 360? Then you haven't seen that many games. Palantas

First of all, I never said it was the worst looking game on 360. I said it was among the worst I'd seen on Xbox 360. In this, I am adamant. The game, with the exception of Master Chief and a couple of other main characters, is really not a treat to the eyes. The environments are largely mediocre, with few redeeming qualities. The trees looked good. Sorry, but it's really the only thing that stood out to me. And no, I don't claim to have played a million and one Xbox 360 games. I'm quite sure there are worse games. I just haven't played many of them.

So why do you care if people defend the game? That doesn't affect your playing experience. Furthermore, why are you theorizing about why people like it? You've taken a very popular game, and instead of concluding that it's popular because people legitimately enjoy the game, you've concluded that they like and defend the game for other reasons. Occam's razor disagrees with you. You also neglect to mention the game's enormous critical acclaim. Have the critics somehow been subverted by Halo's sinister appeal just like the gaming masses? And there you have it. I hope you enjoyed my post.Palantas

I did find it hard to believe that people could genuinely love a game that's so painfully average. And this point, I give to you. I was wrong to theorize that the entire Halo community is made up of douchebags, but it's just what I'm conditioned to expect (and usually recieve) whenever one of my friends forces me to play an online match with him and I accidentally blurt out something like "Dude, let's go play Modern Warfare instead" onto my microphone.

It's been a pleasure.

I agree totally with you here. This post did make a lot of sense to me, I noticed a hell of a lot of things in this game are made to look good only when you pss them at the speed of light hurrying along in the gameplay. Stand still enough and you will start seeing pretty odd textures here and there and some ugly spots. Also, you can at times SEE were the computer generated graphics end and the painting begins in certain backgrounds, not that I didn't like that, but it always bugged me as it looks extremely odd.

I did find it hard to believe that people could genuinely love a game that's so painfully average. And this point, I give to you.

Making_Pudding

This here is a point I support. In order for Halo 3 to be good, you have to be able to cope with a community literally made of overcompetitive little kids. Older gamers whine about and harrass younger players. Younger players whine and harrass everyone about everything. People are way too ready to compare stats, something I wish I had the ability to play without.

I always beleive Social H3 playlists would be infinitely better if it tracked absolutely NOTHING stats wise. Sure you still get XP and lose XP normally, but ranting and raging about stats would be gone mid-match. None of that 'I HAVE A 1.5 K/D SO SHUT UP I MUST BE RIGHT MY STATS ARE BETTER NOOB' crap. Sure people will just resort to talking about Ranked K/D, but the gameplay would be better off too seeing as how players would not have to worry about any stats looking bad.

See what I mean? I hope I explained that properly. I find it tricky to explain to some people, my freind still doesn't get it. I ended up giving up on Halo 3 and turning it in in the end. I just couldn't handle the overcompetitve douchebaggery that made itself part of the game.

The day I decided to turn it in was the same day someone responded to something I said with: "Trash talking is a part of the game F***OT! It messes with peoples heads so don't F***IN tell me what not to say cuz I am MLG and I am up to date with F***IN tactical s*** like this s***. So get F***ed b****."

That very statement convinced me the community was ruined beyond repair and manage to be the con that outweighed all the pros. I do not regret my choice, even though it slims my online choices considerably since that is all about 60% of XBL does online from time to time.

resistance 2's graphics own halo 3's graphics by a long shot, resistance 2 owns halo with the online competative, the online CO-OP. and about everything in the game.

now Killzone 2 owns resistance 2 in graphics, gameplay, online, everything.

Killzone 2>Resistance 2>Halo 3.

And if you Halo fans really really like the damn game (not that its that bad) then go and play it, of course if you have the patience to play with 8 year olds, thats cool.

damn this thread is getting out of hand, what ever, back to Killzone.

Killzone is just Ps3's Halo 3. Don't lie to yourself. You got a great deal out of it, you get to play the Ps3's version of the Halo 3 experience. No matter what kind of denial you feel, Ps3 + Threat of Halo3 being too popular = Killzone 2.... Ps3 wouldn't have K2 is H3 wasn't a great game that required a similarly great title to compete with it. So when you really think, K2 = H3, if it didn't the game would have been abandoned before release. It was built to be like Halo popularity and hype wise and succeeded with style.

your entire argument was fairly reasonable up until the point where u said, 'the entire halo community is made up of **********,' those kind of generalisations really annoy me, simply because you find your fair share of aggrevating people on all games. Granted halo's community ranks amoung (if not the) worst, but CoD 4 definately has its low points. But saying that the 'entire' community is aggrevating just doesnt fly

Then dont play pick-up games, play with friends, that was hard.. wasnt it? There is kids on every game im getting tired of fanboys using that excuse, the majority of online gamers are kids, not adults. Halo doesnt depend on graphics to make it a good game, its all about the gameplay, unlike Sony's games. They rely on graphics only and put gameplay last which is why LIVE rules over PSN and always will.

Please define, you say Halo has a good campaign and good online but nothing else? What else is there? Im sorry but COD4 has nothing more than what Halo has, if anything, it has less. The lobby system isnt as good, cant remake maps, no theater to edit clips, cant customize armor, and is exremely repetive.

What makes Halo so painfully average and COD so fresh and vibrant? COD is the same game rehashed every single year. Modern Warfare 2 will be exactly like Modern Warfare 1 with new maps and different guns. YAY ~_~. You cannot even prove why you would say something like halo is average. Halo may not be the best game and it is far from perfect but it has qualities that make it the longest lasting FPS thus far. Halo 3 has had the highest average population count since its release and has held the highest avg pop count for the longest on the 360. What does that say? People said COD4, Gears 2, and many other shooters would take over but what has happened time and time again? They failed miserably.

What in the hell is wrong with people in that we become so focused on graphics more so than gameplay. Is it wrong that I still have plenty of fun playing Dreamcast and PS2 games? Looks can only take you so far. It applies to life and it applies to games.

Found some more LOL-worthy material in the thread:

[QUOTE="Lance_Kalzas"]

How is the game dying?

KorruptRaiden

I based it on the fact that so many people i know have had enough of it, the mythic map packs are drawing people back, but it will die eventually. You guys dont think very efficiently lol.

It's startling how you are unable to separate your opinions and impressions from facts. What defines a good game? The games you like, obviously. What defines a hardcore gamer? You do, obviously. What did Palantas say in the thread? Whatever you think he said, obviously. In spite of the fact that hundreds of thousands of people play Halo every day, you've decided it's dying, because some people you know stopped playing it. It's like it doesn't even occur to you that the people you know might not be an accurate scientific sampling of Xbox Live.

Yes, the Halo player base will eventually die off, much in the same way as our sun will someday grow cold and dark. You realize that people still make mods for Doom? People still play Rocket Arena for Quake? Quake III and Unreal Tournament still have large communities? Popular shooters stick around for a very, very long time, in spite of what opinions of yours you've turned into divine revelation in your mind.

This site wont let me write **** so i'll write fog. Halo sucks, et cetera...

Good contribution. Your analysis was about as in-depth as Raiden's; you're just less verbose.

Nocturnal15

If you choose to deny that my opinion is what it is, it's your problem, not mine. I have little reason to explain my reasoning, especially since I've already done so in this thread. You've chosen to ignore it.

Also, you have no way of knowing what Modern Warfare 2 will be like. I very much doubt that you work for Activision or Infinity Ward. If past events are any indication, the odds are in my favor. As you probably already know, Infinity Ward is the developer for Modern Warfare 2. These are the guys that made the jump from World War II to modern warfare. These are the guys that made Call of Duty 2 and then, 2 years later, released what would become the best-selling FPS ever made after only one year on store shelves. These guys have never missed their mark, and I don't think they're about to start slacking now. Call of Duty 4 can hardly be called a "rehashed" game, when you consider the differences between it and IW's previous effort.

World at War, on the other hand...rehashed it is. That's why I rented it, beat it, and sent it back. Treyarch would be more apt as a map-maker than a full-fledged developer. This is why I always say that Call of Duty is released once every two years, not annually.

And another thing. I've already mentioned why I think that Halo is still on top. The Call of Duty community is fractured into two games.

There's three types of Call of Duty players. There's the "sheep"; those who will buy the next Call of Duty no matter who develops it or what the setting is or if it's even playable; there's the Infinity Ward fanboys, who are quite aware of who develops each game and are very, very reluctant to try anything that has Treyarch's fingerprints on it; there's the "we'll wait and see how good it is" guy who doesn't necessarily have a favorite developer, but is fairly optimistic whenever a new Call of Duty game is announced, and ultimately always ends up buying it. As you can probably guess, the sheep are in the majority. But also be aware that when Modern Warfare 2 hits, all three types of Call of Duty players will likely be reunited once more. I trust this will be more than enough to dethrone Halo.

But you're right in that Halo's ability to maintain such a high average through so many game releases is pretty amazing. It's my firm belief that Microsoft is putting something in our water.

LOL, JAYKAY, JAYKAY. :D

Halo is amazing. Every game was fantastic. It is addicting, satisfying game play with an edge of your seat story line and unlimited possibilities to do online. When it comes to forge, custom games to make that are extremely flexible to any game rules you want, tons of game modes to choose from that would suit you best for online, video play back ability that enables you to view any angle of your battles, and these are just add ons to an ALREADY amazing game from the beginning of its series. So if people can't see that, then you are very dense my friend.

Maybe it will end up being GoTY. Afterall 300+ million of you bought the damn game.....

Just thought I say what I thought about it.

i think halo is a great game, but...i think you mean its made over "$300 mil"...not sold 300 copies. That staticstic was made in about 2007, so it should be around $600 mil

how do u figure that?

No no, you didn't calculate the two year inflation; 600 bil.

Good contribution. Your analysis was about as in-depth as Raiden's; you're just less verbose.

Oh god. Tell me thats reportable. I got a warning for that sort of thing already, what was it. Censor dodging? Something like that. Dear god, I thought I wasn the biggest idiot on these forums. Now KorruptRaiden and this 'smghottie' (strangely Halo 3 sounding name) come and rob me of my ability to play the fool.

Geez, How is an honest fellah like myself supposed to play an idiot on a forum when so many proffesionals keep showing up... Also, I now envy Palantas's vocabulary. If I hadn't used him to dam up the flames this guys post caused I probably would be on my fourth warning. -.-

That's your opinion. I find Halo 3 to be possibly the best shooter on the 360. Period.

I agree

resistance 2's graphics own halo 3's graphics by a long shot, resistance 2 owns halo with the online competative, the online CO-OP. and about everything in the game.

now Killzone 2 owns resistance 2 in graphics, gameplay, online, everything.

Killzone 2>Resistance 2>Halo 3.

And if you Halo fans really really like the damn game (not that its that bad) then go and play it, of course if you have the patience to play with 8 year olds, thats cool.

damn this thread is getting out of hand, what ever, back to Killzone.

phynixblack

Killzone is just Ps3's Halo 3. Don't lie to yourself. You got a great deal out of it, you get to play the Ps3's version of the Halo 3 experience. No matter what kind of denial you feel, Ps3 + Threat of Halo3 being too popular = Killzone 2.... Ps3 wouldn't have K2 is H3 wasn't a great game that required a similarly great title to compete with it. So when you really think, K2 = H3, if it didn't the game would have been abandoned before release. It was built to be like Halo popularity and hype wise and succeeded with style.

no dude, killzone 2 isnt even trying to comete with halo 3, theres nothing to compete about either, HALO3 got owned by COD4 a long time ago. you see we PS3 owners dont need halo 3, for the fact its not a great game, we got much better games than halo 3, just that Xbots have nothing to play other than that and gears. halo 3 was hyped up sooooo much it didnt deserve the reviews, halo 3 deserves at most an 8. the game's graphics are horrible, the story line and campaign are noot so great, only the online is pretty decent but i played better online games.

the only game that tryed to compete with halo 3 was Haze, but **** Haze.

w/e just go and play halo if you like it, i mean if u like a shooter with so many colors and rainbows....

Halo 3 is worth having and all...i guess. But I mean the online play in matchmaking is just sooo boring I dont see how people actually enjoy that. I'd rather watch someone play cod5 online than play halo 3 online myself.

I would expect Killzone 2 to be better than Halo 3. It came out a year and a half later. Technology does improve but that doesn't mean Halo 3 sucks. The graphics are not horrible. If you think that, then clearly you have not seen games that would be considered to have horrible graphics on the Xbox 360 in comparison.

I really wouldnt say Halo 3 graphics are horrible. Granted they aren't top of the line, but certainly not terrible. The only areas it really seems weak in is human faces and anti aliasing.

Regardless, graphics alone don't decide a game's quality.

geese, way to become a troll in one post, and how did halo 3 get 'owned' if its still in the top 5 xbox live games? do u consider that terrible? cause damn those are pretty high standards...and we have nothing else to play other than gears and halo...u just mentioned CoD in your last sentence, no to mention the fact that if u actually looked at the games played of each of the members here, i doubt u would see halo 3 and gears as the only games played, but nah good comment :roll:, a fanboy troll, they are so smart and loved

Hmm, what I meant was that Halo 3 graphics are great. They're rated pretty highly with most people including critics but certainly not the best. As an example, Bioshock, Gears 1/2 and likely COD4 graphics are better. My comment refers to the fact that if you think Halo 3 graphics are horrible, then your standards and expectations are likely excessively high? How good should they be? Personally this isn't what makes a game better to me. I hope this helps.

Lance_Kalzas

It's typical gamer binary thinking. If a game doesn't have the best graphics, then the graphics suck. There's no way that a game could be 8/10 on visual presentation; that's impossible. :roll: There is a host of games, including shooters, on 360 that don't look as good as Halo 3.

If it isn't Crysis or KZ2, the graphics are crap! xD *End Sarcasm*
