And what is Counter-Strike if not headshot after headshot, whoever can master the headshot and gets the jump on their opponent gets the kill. FPS online is just a bunch of bunny-hopping fools no matter what game you play. TheSystemLord1maybe you havent played CS 1.6 in a while but you get penalized for hopping, you would be dead after one hop usually. and when you get shot you get slowed down with each shot, in halo you are basically invincible until that shield runs out, you dont really get slowed down at all and can hop to dodge snipers to your hearts content, not so in CS 1.6

But I wont be able to play it with my friendsJuugothen get it for ps2 or cough up the extra $50 for the 360 controller, its not like you will waste money you gonna buy more 360 games in the future right ? or you just dont got that kind of money right now or what ?
Yea Halo was originally a 3rd person shooter turned FPS on the PC. People were all over it, then Microsoft offered Bungie some money and they took it and did the game on consoles. Bungie is a PC developer first, hence why the game scored so high, it gave consoles a glimpse of PC FPS. TheSystemLord1its not like they didnt know how to make console games or something, they made oni and it scored better on ps2. halo is hardly a glimpse of pc, when i started on pc FPS i could tell quickly why everyone said they were better. and people were not all over it when they showed it at first, people barely knew about it til it hit xbox. what halo did was bring the best graphics consoles had seen till that point and great vehicles.
lets put it this way if halo 3 was a pc game day 1 and not 360 timed exclusive, it would get most likely get pumeled by UT3 and pretty much any decent pc FPS[QUOTE="Chris-Hansen"][QUOTE="TheSystemLord1"]How are people saying Halo is overratede? It has gotten above 90% on every gaming site out there, every magazine as well...hell it was EGM's first ever perfect 10. Halo wars is a whole different beast this is true, but that doesn't mean its going to suck. I for one think it will be amazing. Starcraft's world is better than Halo's though, at least right now, which is why I wanted World of Starcraft. The fact is, that if Halo Wars does end up looking better than Starcraft 2, and scores comparitively (a difference of .3 either way is comparable), then PC gamers need to step back and realize that Blizzard's cartoony art styles are old and not going to be tolerated much longer.TheSystemLord1
Halo was originally developed for the PC until Microsoft bought bungie and made them put it on Xbox
what does that have to do with the fact that it doesnt come to pc on day 1 ? it was probably for the better because the only thing it really did to seperate itself was add vehicles in a meaningful way and nice vehicle physics, the gunplay on CS 1.6 reqiures more skill.im not saying halo is a bad series its just not the best FPS of all time like people are making it out to be, its not even in the top 10 IMO.i loved halo 1, halo 2 was disappointing, and halo 3 seems to be more of the same from what i played so far at my neighbors the past few days. but CS has better gunplay IMO, halo is pretty much whoever sees who first gets the kill, or whover throws the sticky grenade first gets the kill.
[QUOTE="Chris-Hansen"][QUOTE="TallicaFan2005"][QUOTE="mike7677"]I was wondering if he was going to lambaste Steve Jobs and Apple for kicking him out. Or did he leave voluntarily?TallicaFan2005
Wiki: Wozniak ended his full time employment with Apple for good on February 6, 1987, nine years after setting up the company. However he still remains an employee (including receiving a paycheck)[4][1] and a stockholder [5]. He also still has connections with Steve Jobs.
so in other words he is like a billionaire by now with all of apple's recent success.I think Apple has been succesful long before the iPod, but yeah. Apple rules.
they are worth so much more now than they ever were, this guy probably uses benjamins as toilet paper.How are people saying Halo is overratede?

[QUOTE="Chris-Hansen"][QUOTE="Tasman_basic"][QUOTE="Meu2k7"]RTS games are already highly CPU dependant. If you want Realistic graphical RTS beyond CoH then your just going to have to wait a few years, making them both GPU and CPU intense would be a bad move.
It looks fine.

Have you seen World in Conflict?
SC2 looks like War3 did when it came out. That is to say nice but nothing special. Who cares anyway you don't play graphics you play the game.
On an interesting note:
Acording to Hermits Halo3 can't look like it does, that makes it last gen, but SC2 can look like that and it's ok.
Point is they are as big a pack of hypocrites as the Cows and Lems put together.
Oh right how silly of me *smacks forehead*. Halo's never been about good gameplay for 7 years now people have only ranted about the graphics! Nintendo must be in the **** then aswell eh? The next Mario game looks like as marginal an improvemnt as Halo 3 does so it must suck too then. You've only been around for a short time and already it's obviouse your one of the more narrow minded and blind haters out there. **** SW it's full or **** who say one thing and act another way. Halo 3 didn't floor people with it;s graphics so it's a flop but when SC2, the sequal to a game that when another poster (I belive it was Waynehead) asked what a Zerg was got roasted for weeks, coes out all looks decidely plain thats fine.
You want it both ways and thats what childern do, no surprise the average mental age in SW is about 14.
wow talk about the pot calling the kettle black:lol:, you go on a rant insulting other people calling them tards and ****heads and then go on a rant that makes no sense whatsover and you have the audacity to critisize other people's maturity ? ARE YOU FREAKIN SERIOUS MAN ?the game was suppose to live up to the trailer, IT DIDNT EVEN COME CLOSE TO EITHER OF THEM ! talk about hypocrite you people give the cows heat about killzone 2 will not live up to the trailer and when karma bites you in the @$$ you go on massive damage control now that halo 3 looks like halo 2 in HD and even the lems ARE SAYING THIS.
were you seriously comparing a wii game to a 360 game ? SERIOUSLY DUDE ? that had to of been a joke post cus i dont believe it, wii was never suppose to be a graphics showcase and is a marginal upgrade over GC. 360 is suppose to have the best graphics this gen and gears showed what it can do, and now that they have to process twice as much than what they had to with gears the visuals take a hit, GET OVER IT.
[QUOTE="NorthlandMan"][QUOTE="phatkav"]Or get Halo Wars instead, from the trailerit looked far more realistic Still the gameplay in Starcraft 2 would be 100 times better already, if Halo Wars is good,if it is bad ...[QUOTE="greg_splicer"][QUOTE="Supafly1"]Get banned graphics whore.Tasman_basic
Get Halo Wars instead of Starcraft 2? That has to be a joke.
LMFAO Halo Wars. On the one hand we have a mediocre spinoff of a mediocre FPS that you can play with analogue sticks. On the oher hand we have the sequel to the best RTS game ever amde tough choiceOMFG the dickheads are out in full force today. Halo's sales and fan base are a pretty good indication that it is not mediocre. Your gonna say, yeah but it only gets 60% on PC, good job retard 4 year old games don't get good scores more so when they are poor ports like Halo CE and Halo 2. The world doesn't care what you think or like becuase your a 15 year old no body and only likely to grow up into an adult nobody.
As for Halo:Wars, what can go wrong? The chances of it being bad right now are not much it's in a great universe, the Halo universe becuase I know you'll have trouble figuring that out. It's by a great dev' Age of Empires isn't SC popular but it is a criticaly acclaimed serise. They can't realy go to bad on that one.
I'm sure SC2 will be the more popular game and get all the people singing about how great it is and that fine for all the RTS players out there but honestly, so what? It's not going to mae money like WoW it's probably not going to make money like Halo either. It might not even be better than Halo Wars. You yourself obviously know that populartiy doesn't make a game great so what to say just because more people will get/play SC that it will be better?
SC basically created online gaming or made it popular and to this day is still played and people actually get paid to play the game and it is their life and job and they play it for like 18 hours straight in asia . looks like someone hit a nerve on you, cus halo definately is mediocre at best when compared to all FPS with the empire state building sized hitboxes and aim assist it hardly takes skill, and halo never had a great universe and story it was only easy to pick up and play than unreal or quake or other FPS. halo wars will only try to imitate and cannaot compete with the originator.either way enjoy your suspension :)
