Halo3 ? Or Not

without saying nothing about the ending all i can say is that it blatantly leaves you waiting for halo 3.

kinda like they did at the movie "Mission to Mars"

Halo3 ? Or Not
« Reply #91 on: November 08, 2004, 11:23:00 PM »

I will be shocked if Halo 3 is not an XBox 2 launch title.

That being said I think Halo is grossly overrated and I have no intentions of buying Halo 2.  Half Life and it's many iterations make for much better LAN games.  Console shooters are somewhat inferior in general, and Halo specifically gets really boring.  Vehicles are over-powers in multiplayer, and the campaign is overtly repetetive.

Half-Life 2 will own Halo 2 all day long.  And Half-Life 2 will have a number of strong mods to increase gameplay because it was built and designed around a SDK and a heavily moddable engine.  Playing Halo today is no different than Halo at launch.  Halo 2 doesn't even have all the features that were promised in the initial launch of Halo.

Why does everyone worship this game?  I assume it's largely a younger crowd who doesn't have a good gaming rig and was first really broken into the FPS scene with Halo.

I'm not even a big fan of the FPS scene, but I've been playing them all since Wolfenstein on my 286.

I think halo 2 is very fun online.  It has nothing to with not being able to aford a nice PC.  I have a top of the line Alienware PC that is about 6 months old so there almost no limitations with the games and resolutions  I can use.   I have a nice 5.1 suround and a 20" screen on my PC.  In my mind it is a very nice gaming rig.

As for playing somthing like Haloo 2 online.  I have a 73" widscren TV with a very high end suround system.  I prefer playing on the bigscreen sitting back with my feet up in the recliner.  This is a much more comfortable way to play.  The suround system on the PC can't even come close to what the home stereo can do.

Pingrr,

Since money doesn't appear to be a huge object for you, I highly suggest you give me some.

I looked into the front projection systems but the way the room is layed out a rear projection system was definatly the way to go.   It is also nice to have the computer in a different room so you can watch movies while somone else uses the computer.

I think that Halo 3 is already in the works and has been for quite some time.  Yes Bungie denies this but I don;t think they would want to publicly talk about this because it could hurt Halo 2 sales.

Those are what I was talking about when I said front projection systems.  They are nice but shadows from people walking around could be cause issues along with light in the room.  The room is a relativly brite room in the day.  DLP projectors usualy need to have a darker room than a bigscreen TV.  I looked into DLP's with some very high lumens ratings but they were still afected by lite more than the other TV's.

Those systems are very nice but just not a good fit for this room.  I'll try and take a picture and it should make more sence why I couldn't fit that big of a TV in this room.

Why is this thread still going?  Bungie has already admitted that Halo3 is in development for XBOX Next.

The last article I read said that Bungie wants to move on to a WWII game and won't talk about when and if Halo 3 might be developed.

Also keep in mind that last October, MS's Steve Ballmer said that Bungie was already "working on Halo 2 and Halo 3."


That is a quote from the link.
