Can't believe how blown out of proportion this topic is, but in all honesty, that's racism in a nutshell. And the people on this message board are just as guilty because the way the react to it.
One guy says something, who is obviously misguided, then next thing you know you have 20 more people following in his footsteps, only taking the opposite position.
Everybody is acting like this person's opinion has become the general consensus, when that couldn't be any f...
Bungie = 1 trick pony
I find it ironic that the first halo was titled Combat Evolved, because if there is one thing that series hasn't done, its evolve.
And if you look at all their games prior to Halo, there is nothing really notable. Oni on PS2, Quake rip off on MAC(thats right, originally Bungie was Mac exclusive)
Black on White crime is higher than White on White crime, but that does pale in comparison to Black on Black crime. The problem that I have w/ these racial arguements is all too often they omit societal factors, such as, if you were to study a group of people from the same income gap, you would notice that it is more influential to behavior than race. I think, often times, races role is overstated.
On the topic of Racism in games, however, I think it is sad that we only questio...
The way I see it, the 360 only has like 2 real exclusives this year - Forza3 and Halo ODST, which is a glorified expansion pack, nowhere near 60$(unless you missed out on the DLC, you might as well buy it, but if you're that hardcore of a Halo fan, you probably already have the DLC)
And why does everyone forget Fat Princess!? That game puts the 3 hr long shadow complex to shame. Fat Princess has tons of replayability and depth, it is addicting as hell! Not to mention online and...
So basically, just rent it, don't waste your money buying it unless you want the DLC.
At least L4D2 has replayability.
I almost wouldn't care if it did, Gears2 was a monumental dissapointment in my eyes - they totally cut the balls off the shotgun and introduced a bunch of boring weapons. Gears2 just didn't have the balance that 1 had.
Bestselling huh? LMAO - what bestsellers list are you referring to?
And if the books are so great, why can't they come up w/ a 1/2 way decent plot for the game? Halo's SP capmaign's are always highly scrutinized for never living up to their promise.
COD6 FTW
The only reason Halo is being adapted is because it sold alot of copies, not because its actually an interesting story, which it totally isn't.
It's the same way with Gears, I read an early draft of one of the scripts for Gears on Kotaku.com, and it sounded like a Rambo movie w/ monsters instead of terrorists.
On the subject of Halo, the story is just plain generic - no interesting protagonist, too many bland settings; don't even get me started on the whole alien...
The thing about the unreal engine is it has to work on so many different platforms, I doubt it will be able to surpass the Guerilla Games or Naughty Dog engines - they have the advantage of being tailored for one specific peice of hardware.
Honestly though, I feel the same way about halo I feel about windows- they just keep repackaging the same software and releasing a new version every year.
Hopefully Halo:Reach will be Window7 quality.
PS4? XBOX720? That's so 5 minutes ago, I'm about to preorder my PS5 and my XBOX 1080.
I really think this is a shoe-in for game of the year, unless COD pulls something out of its ass. Sure, COD will probably sell more, but the gameplay itself doesn't really look like it has improved as much as Uncharted 2.
I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the graphics of this game TBH. Escpecially those epic looking boss fights, they really take the graphics up a notch. Almost reminds me of SotC.
Don't you ever get tired of pretending your console of choice is gods gift to the world? What is it about the PS3 you find so offensive, because you lose a lot of cred when you have to get so defensive over something you claim to find so insignificant. If I didn't know better, I would think you're just butthurt because you don't have one. Maybe you should suck up to your parents a little more.
And you are a fool for thinking wasting your parent's money on full priced games. Lik...
Really, I never would have geussed this game was held in such high regards as FF, but in its defense, sometimes a simple game can be just as effective.
I loved the way that this game was so hardcore, I'm sure a lot of people have fond memories of struggling through this game. Everytime you beat a level it was a small triumph, especially that cart level or whatever it was.
Wow, nothing like a little KZ2 article to get the 360 owners all defensive.
After seeing how much GG have progressed w/ just the map packs, I can't wait to see how much improved a KZ3 would be. That map beach head is frickin crazy - there are so many effects going on around you at once, you really feel like your in the middle of a storm. You can see the wind swirling blowing the rain around, sparks flying everywhere, smoldering fires and smoke, one of the most impressive MP map...
I wonder if Sony is going to talk about their motion sensing tech - media molecule would be a shoe in to dev a game for that.
I don't think this author realizes how massive HD movies are - all that uncompressed audio and video can day nearly a day to download on a standard hi speed connection(3-4 mbps).
Fact of the matter is, if you want to watch an HD movie, Blu Ray is still the best option you have. Downloads are still pretty far off, I can only imagine how expenisive the internet service would have to be that would allow you to DL this type of media efficiently, I'm sure you'd be better off just bu...
Turtles in Time? R U serious? You're going to waste your money on that game when you could just get the emulator!?
I will agree that TiT is the best Turtles game, and the suped up graphics and multiplayer is enticing, but c'mon, FAT Princess is easily the network GOTY.
-Anyone like the acronym for this game?
