IMO the first halo sucked, how the hell did it make it to 4?   probably the same reason they keep remaking shows like "Power Rangers."

dont know bout you yuk but i loved the series but hated Halo 2. yes call of duty took the cake and battlefield kicked CoD to the curb but honestly sometimes i like to kick back and be able to run around with a shield and the need to watch for the occasional laser sniper and the hunter pairs :aok


irish how did the first Halo suck? it came before any other good console games were there for Xbox. the storyline was good the gameplay was a bit tacticless (shoot them before they kill you) for a fps but it was still good overall. and who didnt like running for your life in the warthog at the very end? :rofl

IMO any game where it takes 50 bullets to kill someone is t3h suck.   all that game (and CoD for that matter) was was a bunch of ppl hopping around to avoid being shot (because that takes so much skill  :rolleyes:).   so, IMO, it sucked, bad.    the best FPS in my opinion was still Bond, with the setting to one shot kills. (can't remember what that was called  :headscratch:     golden gun maybe?)

Infinity ward is no longer in control of Call of duty after that fiasco with Activision back in 09. Now its simply tryarch and whoever makes the warhammer games.

Halo was one of the biggest overrated fps's ive ever played. And this is coming from someone who had a 3.57 K/D ratio.

I enjoyed Killzone much better. better graphics, and it felt more realistic, even for  a futuristic shooter. plus i loved the clan options in KZ2, which they sadly butchered in KZ3.  :(

Are you joking that game is flawless.  Did you play it when it first came out on PC it was state of the art.

Your correction: you're HIGH!!

more of this overused "Epic" bullspit?   come on now.    even if it was good in your opinion, i doubt it was far from epic.   and as far as what xBox is today?   xbox sucks   paperweight IMO.   just a crappy piece of plastic.   and, yes, halo sucks.

Alright, we are all entitled to our own opinions but why was it junk?  You can't say it is crap for no reason.

lol my first time ever playing Halo on Xbox live I went 20 something and 3 on Halo Reach. That's where people who fail at CoD and Battlefield go.  :neener:

I read that the main reason that Hollywood hasn't gotten in on the act is that in the games the Master Chief is never seen out of his helmet and suit. They say while this is great for video games, it doesn't work very well with movies. I wouldn't think it would be that big of a deal to have an actor depict both in and out of the armor. Just look at how successful Iron Man was, seems like pretty much the same thing.

That is incorrect. Go to the Modern Warfare 3 website and look at the bottom of the page  :rolleyes:

The founders of IW and a chunk of their staff left the company and Activision to start Respawn Entertainment. IW still exists and is still involved with CoD.

On topic: I used to be the kind of Halo fan that would preorder the game as soon as it was announced, but that was when it was Bungie's game. 343 definitely seems like a dedicated staff that takes the Halo story very seriously, but 343 has no portfolio other than comics, books, and animated shorts. When Microsoft starts stepping up the hype and 343 demonstrates that they're making a solid game, I might get suckered into buying day one, but as of now I'm just waiting.

But I'm more interested in what Bungie's up to than what's going to happen with Halo.

If Barney the big purple dinosaur from the kids show was replaced by Ernie the tiny green snot bubble, is it still Barney?

Infinity Ward is just a name now. All the key minds behind the original game up until Modern Warfare 1 are all gone.

oh, well, let me refrase. what i said.

The TRUE Infinity ward no longer has control of the call of duty franchise. Now its just all the unimportant people that got left behind from the original, along with Treyarch. :rolleyes:
MW3 will fail for one big reason, they have treyarch behind the wheel. Laziest devs ive ever seen when it comes to fixing bugs.glitches/etc.
Even if the true IW was around, it wouldnt matter, COD died after 3. 4 was the breaking point.



On another note, I read the Head Devs devs joined EA to create the team "Martyrdom"

I really wonder if MW3 is going to be the end of the whole Modern Warfare storyline.
I'm not wasting money on MW3, if anything, I'll either brow it from a friend or download a torrent to see the storyline. Then it's off to the recycle bin.

Back on topic: Halo 3 was always fun to play with a couple of friends. I'm not a console person but pretty much all my friends are, and anytime I hang with them, it's either Halo or Gears of War. It's a nice break from more realistic shooters. Jumping 20ft in the air and blasting a guy on the way down is amusing to watch. :)
