I know it's not final yet, but the game play in the alpha build video just released. Looks like it has too much of the newbie Halo 2 game play in it. The reason Halo 1 was so popular was that it didn't have the crazy run and gun antics that a lot of fps had but its wasn't as harsh as Rainbow Six. It was the perfect blend of the two game types and if you wanted to run around like an idiot and charge a skilled player blindly you got put down quickly. Halo 1 had a lot of strategy to the weapons and gameplay. Halo 2 threw that out the window for a more newbie conscious and mainstream game which majorly pissed off the hardcore halo fans the online feature is the only thing that saved it but weaken grenade, shotguns, pistil, and the removal of the assault rifle completely turned the game into a spray and pray free-for-all. The was no reward for being careful no reward taking carful aim with headshot you just pumped as many clips into you enemies as possible until the fell dead. If you got the jump on someone in halo 1 they were dead in halo 2 you can fire the first few rounds into and opponents head and they could still turn and kill you. The huge halo LAN parties that use to go on lasted for the entire life of the game. I never heard anyone say that they were ever tired of halo 1 multiplayer my friends got tired of halo 2 in two weeks. So im worried for this game I hope they really listen to the hardcore halo fans and not just the ones that jumped on at part 2.

Here are some picks

You officially fail because here are the new screen for Mass Effect.

Man this should put to rest the downgrade rumors.

Joystiq posted an article saying over 2000 fanboys have already sighed the petition. Does this prove once and for all the PS3 fanboys are the worst of them all. Because this type of bi**hing and moaning is unprecedented.

I"m sorry but why isn't anyone declaring their ownage over MotorStorm. It flopped big time 7.9 you got to be kidding me. Do cows think the can hide behind the Home announcement and not face up to their ownage. Home is great and all but until you guys have a unified friends list and can invite and jump in and out of each others games PSN impresses me "Not so much". Remember we had a unified friends list and jump in and out of each others games on xbox 1 so you guys still have a long way to go. Sony still has a lot of work to do. And by the way if Sony is going to plaster ads everywhere so PSN can stay free I think all stick to my 50 dollars a year. I hate it when I download something and I have to wait for the stupid commercial to go off. 1up.com is bad about this ,so is IGN, and let's not even talk about G4tv

Come on cows you have to be kidding me! You can't compare those two launches it's a d**n joke too. On launch day of the 360 at midnight I walked out of the store with Call of duty 2 , Condemned criminal origins , Project Gotham 3, Perfect dark zero, and Madden 06. All you cows had was Resistance that's It nothing else. The rest of the line up was just garbage. Call of duty 2 is better than resistance by itself. And the PSN doesn't even equal the version of xbox live on the original xbox. Come on cows just try to debate this it's laughable.
