I have a question to you guys: Do you honestly think that Halo Chronicles is going to be a cash in? Think about it.


MS made a new studio, so they are serious about it- they would've just licensed some studio to do it if not (like VP party animals)

-you've got a couple of the members of Bungie coming over to work (like franky)

- Peter Jackson- movie director

- Corrine Yu- gearbox dude

* this is where the rumor of gearbox developing halo 4 came out from. He actually is leaving the company

- Ryan Payton- producer at Kojima Productions

- Kenneth Scott- art director from Id Software

thats what we know so far

whose to say there aren't more?


Guys, this isn't Peter Jackson's Halo Project either, it's "let's take a bunch of good people from the industry and have them make a game" project.

Keep your eyes on this. This is in no way Halo Kart

[QUOTE="krp008"]

[QUOTE="ff7cloudking"]Live is a rip off, only because you have to pay. So I voted for PS3FragTycoon

Yet mllions of nerds pay $10 or whatever a month to play ONE game alone online, WOW... While 360 owners pay $50 a year to play hundreds

$50 =/= hundreds of games

$50 + ISP cost = ability to play games online with 360 regardless of what additinal features you use.

XBLG - XBLS = what you pay for.

Wouldn't the same be applied for the PS3?

and you know, so of us leech off of wifi, lol

GTA IV is untouchable when it comes to little details, there was such a huge amount of care put into the city, just a few examples would be how cops chase criminals through the street, if you wait until the criminal is cornered, then distract the officer, the guy will make a run for it! Or if you use a drink machine, Niko will then throw the can to the floor, which you can then pick up and throw at peds. Or how, if you push a guy into a railing, they'll grab onto it to keep their balance. Its amazing.

This.

No questions asked, the two games with the most attention to detail have been GTA4 and MGS4.

No other game even comes close to them.

again, explain to me how MGS4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPeSnVmQyG8 is more detailed than halo

my main problem with MGS4 is that it essentially has 2 good acts and the rest are meh. Besides that it's a pretty damn short game. On my 2nd playthough i beat it in about 6 hours (i think).

(the acts are shadow moses and the middle east btw).

Still one of the best games this gen. But Halo 3 is the most hated game on this forum. It has less flaws than MGS4 really. And I'm still playing Halo 3 that got released a year ago. Im done with MGS4 (although i play it once in a while)

makes you wonder why they wouldn't take the time to let the character not gave to walk in a circle to turn around?

Seriously though, GTA4 is very, very detailed.... for a sandbox style game.

Xbox 360 > DS3 controller

this applies to everything accept fighting games and some sidescrollers, mainly the stiff completely 2d ones. things like bionic commando is irrelevant.

That being said, the d-pad on the 360 is actually probably better for switching weapons and stuff, what you actually do with it. It's just for movement its too clunky.

The wiimote is absolutely horrible for FPS games. It's good when you're stable though.

That being said, m/k isn't as good as it's made out to be either. Yea, the actually aiming is pretty damn good, but you pretty much only press forward and left and right. You barely ever use the ack direction (because it's just so hard to reach).


While the mouse is good, everything else is crap.

Overall it's just what feels more comfortable.

Wait, so you mention gears of war when it comes to attention to detail but not halo? Are you for real? Gears is textures galore with mid level attention to detail.


Just look at this- and dont forget that halo's levels are immensely larger than Gear's

seriously now. And unlike a lot of games (like oblivion or crysis) it's not just the same stuff repeated. Everything is hand placed.

gears has about as much detail as the parts in halo which you have to glitch out of in theater mode to access.

talk about a corridor shooter, lol.

but seriously, on uwe boll, he's not bad. The medieval film he did and Postal were pretty good, especially the latter. The only reason why critics dont like him is because he goes into more of the fantasy and offensive, gamers dont like him because he makes video game movies that have no relation to the games at all
