Halo 3 tidbits

[Rejinx]

If we're talking FPSs, the PC wins hands down.  My fav is the battlefield series.  I am still playing the mods for 1942 and 2142 is .   if I had to pick FPSs for consoles I would go with 007 games, but that is just because I get  everytime I play Halo 1 or 2.

My only hope is that they fix the balance on multiplayer gameplay.  It also sucks playing Halo 2 online (xbox connect) and being trash talked by a bunch of 14 year old punks (unlike the kicka** teens that frequent this site).  Hopefully they can make it a bit more than run-n-gun.

I'm glad that they made the Spartans look more like the originals again. 

For those who haven't played the first two for more than 10 minutes, I recommend you play the game through before you judge it.  If you play it for just one thing, you'll most likely be sorely dissappointed.  Otherwise, look out for interesting architecture, in-game voice acting, and hippos.  Yes, hippos.  They're on the spent shotgun shell casings.

I used to stay away from the new consoles and the hype, but the Wii and 360 are really pushing my to buy new for some reason.  I guess they still are managing to make somewhat new stuff after all.  At least there likely won't be another game crash any time soon.

Here's a video of some players discussing some Halo3 multiplayer post-impressions.

that is going to be the biggest thing holding back microsoft and xbox.  xbox live is supposed to be the shining gem of features of the 360, but when i played freakin world championship poker on the original xbox, i got called every name in the book (win or lose).  there is no way that kindof gaming environment will be able to sell to a bigger market than it has now.

I only play with people I know. Or Capt Nintendo goes out and makes good friends then I join.

Looks like Halo 3 Legendary Edition has got a price increase...

Oh well, whatever floats your boat. I think it makes more sense to get a DS Lite for $130 instead of just a singular game.

I thought you didn't care about Halo.

Saw it on Joystiq, made me laugh, thought I'd share.

That sucks but I will still prolly get it.

Isn't this game out yet?

The only good thing I see coming from it is even shinier Red VS. Blue episodes.

[phoenix1967]

The standard copy is all I need. I rarely (if ever) buy the limited editions of any game.

Shortly after i first got my Xbox, I traded Halo for Sega GT 2002. Never regretted it either, 'nuff said lol. Of course that doesn't mean I won't give Halo 3 a fair chance, and that Legendary edition kicks ass. I'd buy it, has to be one of the coolest game paraphenilia ideas I've ever seen.

Halo is a really good console first person shooter, but that's like being the smartest kid in the retarded class, or the hottest girl in Wal-mart.
