I mean come on?!? 9.5? I mean jeez. Look at the review and all the cons! Inevitable bad online multiplayer (because of all the people and all the ubers :P), bad teammate AI, bad Machinima (big fan of Machinima btw) and an obvious unfair advantage to those that have Xbox Live. The game itself is a marketing ploy to buy Xbox Live because only 2 of the pros apply to the actual single-player game and you get campaign achievements for co-op, web integration, etc that will make people with lives miss out. Oh and wait a minute, wasn't there a map editor in Halo 2 for PC? What score did that get again? Oh yes, I believe it was 7! Mix of the old and new my @$$ Jeff. And so, that's what I think. Now let the people speak and be sure to say what you really think. Don't fall victim to the fanboyism and over-marketing!
About the whole GH3 for the computers, there's really no point to it too because there's always Frets On Fire or Guitar Zero for free. Yet, GH3 will obviously be better than them but you still need to weigh in the pros and cons of each like for example, you can import your own songs into FoF and GZ but you have the crowd meter and the background stuff on GH3.
So first off all if you don't know me, I like to stur up controversy (at least on the fourms, nothing hardcore like writing PS3 Sucks on a PS3 or destroying new consoles the day they come out) and I enjoy making comparisons. On that note, I eariler thought about which of the few rhythm games for the consoles out there do you think is going to be better? GH3 or RB? The original commerical guitar game or the challenger that comes out singing? (sorry for the pun). We will soon find out, but what are your predictions?
far cry wont dl for me i swear its so annoyingxfactor19990
Ya, apperantly only people inside the USA can download it. I would usually say d*mn Crytek if it were anyother company, but they're making Crysis so it evens out :P
On the note of the large scale and environments of Crysis, that's what Far Cry brought to the FPS table, an open world environment only seen in the likes of GTA. Alas, now everyone's trying to cash in on the open-world fame of GTA but finally with Crysis we have another chance at a kick ass environment that isn't just another knock off! It will be original from the real-time lighting to the volumetric clouds! Wow, Cry Engine 2! The only problem I realistically see with Crysis is that you'll need a very good computer to enjoy the graphical detail of the game.
And on that note, may I also point out that people were recently saying that Bungie knew that they made mistakes with Halo 2 and will fix this in Halo 3 or something like that? Well need I remind you of the failure that is Halo 2 for PC? Jeez, at least Gears of War for PC will actually add something... And come on, Far Cry was Crytek's first fps game and look how well it did! And now that their paired with the game powerhouse that is EA Games instead of Ubisoft (well, except for the fact that I believe that EA Games bought out a part of Ubisoft a while ago)...
I'll admit that the Halo series single-player campaign has always been weak but I believe that the Crysis multiplayer will surprise a lot of people. It would be sweet to change the suit abilities to sneak up behind someone and kill them or run and gun everyone! That being said, I personally think that Crysis will do better cause what does Halo have? Honestly, its strong point is the multiplayer but other than that...(as I said before, don't kill me fanboys). Alas, at the end of the day Halo 3 will probably sell better because of the massive over-hyping (its own console, energy drink, movie, etc).
