Topic: Halo 3!

What a breath of fresh air!  I never understand the white hot anger flung at Halo.  Yeah it's not the best thing ever but it's fun as hell.

Halo on casual mode is one of the best ways to start learning how to master the FPS.
I play on Heroic (Hard), myself, but everyone has their favorite setting.
For Co-Op, though, Legendary is the way to go...although you gotta make sure that you don't die, and also that your teammate doesn't die, because if one dies, its back to the Checkpoint.

This website belongs to the best Halo player in the country. He is nine years old, and this proves how broken the gameplay mechanics of Halo is. This child isn't even old enough to be playing this game! I have played both Halo 1 and 2, Halo 1 is good, but Halo 2 sucks my stinger missle laucher.

What people don't realize is Halo is just a typical run of the mill first person shooter with online play that has prepubescent idiots, and "wigger" kids playing it.

Because, you know, he isn't just a great gamer, or something...

What if counter-strike was in halo's shoes?

Wouldn't that game be overrated as well?

SO if halo was to actually be released on the pc wouldn't it's butt be kicked since the pc has a whole bunch of those fpses out there?

Just because there are some people online that may be retarded doesnt make the the game bad as a whole.  There is going to be people you dont like on ANY online game.

Actually its not a flaw of Halos game mechanics but more like that lil kid is the perfect balance of natural talent lots of time spent and simply being younger than all his competition. Its a known fact that all human reaction times slow as you age so him being that young gives him a natural advantage outside of any skill he might have.

Cheer up!  When you turn 80, and all your teeth fall out, you can have all the ice cream you want, I think.

It's not that im angry about it, it's just that no game deserves this much hype. Halo is far from revolutionary.

I finally got a chance to play the game today, and I can honestly say it's the same crap I played a few years ago in Halo 2. Metroid Prime 3 has waaaay better graphics, Halo 3 has a piss poor physics system too. I also see that they left that cute little auto-aim feature in the game for all the kiddies to enjoy! 

It's fun at times yeah, but this game is nothing special.
Like I said.. Goldeneye!

What are you talking about auto-aim?  There's only semi-auto aiming, and its pretty much a necessity these days for console shooters.

I've played a decent amount of multiplayer in the first two Halos, and a the first 2-3 levels in each too.  I really just can't get into it.  I find multiplayer in Goldeneye, Timesplitters 2, and classic Doom much more fun.  But I do adore Halo's predecessor series, Marathon.  Those games were absolutely phenomenal from a storytelling, level design, and atmospherics standpoint.  Shame only 0.1% of Halo fanatics have ever given Marathon a chance, especially considering just how similar the two series are.

Someday I'll pick up an Xbox and play through the first two Halos.  I really do want to know what the big deal is.

Saying that Halo 3 has worse graphics than the newest metroid is just a LIE.  It makes the rest of your post seem bias and stupid.  SO does your ridiculous anger level.

Games don't get to Halo level without being revolutionary. Peer. E. Ud.
