for ppl who r saying halo 3 graphix arent that "realistic" well u guys friggin missed the point coz halo was never meant to look realistic but always meant to look like a sci fi graphic novel ( kind of like star wars and 300). the various colored plasma fire the shiny metal surfaces the aliens all bring this epic story of a "science fiction " to friggin life. only difference with star wars and halo is that bungie was kind enough to let us interact with these shiny objects and plasma fire( getting shot in the butt) which in my opinion is more fun to do. if halo 3 loox unrealistic and flashy then mission accomplished for bungie. all those ppl who r coming to this site to bash halo saying graphix arent better r actually generating more buzz for the game since its already overhyped .lol.som friendly advice to those halo haters and sony luvers is that stop talkin bout halo and it will go away sooner than it wud if u keep trying to debunk its graphix and stuff. 2 SIGIL OTAKU: u no the thing i hate more than clowns is .clowns like u that talk bout stuff they havent seen or played or touched or yada yada yada. u obviously havent seen basilisk and hence the "it's usually I am warlord so I fight to kill then they just have action from beginning to end and desperately try to throw in a sub par plot.". desperately try to throw in a subparplot.its adapted from a novel. the story friggin rox .its got romance, action, conspiracy, plot, the most interesting characters ihav ever seen and 2 top it all off the visual style kix ass. i hav no idea which basilisk ur talking about but the basilisk i luv doesnt hav a "so I fight to kill then they just have action from beginning to end and desperately try to throw in a sub par plot.". and if ur into fantasy worlds then "now and then here and there, wolfs rain, fma, gunXsword" offer far greater fantasy than naruto or naruto shipuuden combined.
sigil otaku i can c that ur a halo fan boy. no worries. i am 2. but dude really dont post so many replies on 1 forum . it makes u look like u get paid to put up with ppls nonsense.. halo 3 can defend itself if its wat u claim it to b. (since its ur opinion that u prefer it over other shooters). i didnt luv halo coz of graphix becoz i played combat evolved(halo on pc) at a time when graphix made a greater leap. i luvved it becoz of gameplay and action and any1 who says other wise hasnt played it or simply has bad taste. halo 3 is over rated no doubt. but there is no point in arguing about the rating becoz even if it was a piece of dog crap (which its not) fan boy reviewers wud still giv it 9 up. by the way ur taste in anime sux. sasuke from naruto.yuck . ur those 18 year old bearded dorkx that still watch kiddie shows like naruto and one piece and dbz and transformers. o and if u think ur cooler coz ur watching a "wanna b ninja" anime then u shud feast ur eyeson "basilisk: the book of kouga ninja arts." it wont WASTE ur time like naruto wasted mine. episode yada yada yada: running thru jungle episode yada yada: reached destination but rock boulder in my way episode(im geting tired typing this) yada: its bout removing rock boulder.
1st and fore most im a big halo fan. i hav finished both 1 and 2 on legendary (not in coop). luv the different endings.i hav to say ive got 2 b the most luckiest 1 among u coz i played halo 2 just a month ago 3 was set for release. that meant after that ending i dont hav much time 2 wait for playing 3. graphix r xtremely nice and artistic. luv the huge plains bungie lets us play on. but i hav 2 say that reviewers r buttkissing a lot becoz all games get a user score that is higher than critic score but for halo 3 its the opposite. critix gave it 9.5 while us gamers gav it 9.0. pretty shocking since i thought players wud give it 10. this tells me those reviewers r fanboys doing a great favor for ms becoz sales r greatly influenced by raitings. the rating doesnt hav to b correct. 9.5 will get gamers new to halo curios bout 3. but since i havent played 3 myself i cant comment on wat it shud recieve .(which i havent in this post. infact i wanna play it more)
seriously i hav only played the 360 version but the pc high quality graphix images on this forum has nothing special about them. i run my bioshock on hd and there doesnt seem to b any ,even to the slight alteration) in texture and resolution but i hav heard that the dx 10 version runs smoother where as the 360 version does endure screen tearing when u turn around too fast . that to me is the only difference uptil now.
the best things in life ARENT free.gamespot just proved it to us that it costs $$ by the thousands to actually play just 1 game, though awesom in every aspect, in its highest setting. thankfully god did grant us with the 360.hallelujah
