| Yeah, I totally agree. I have this theory that the only reason people go nuts for it is because it was the first game of its kind for consoles, while PC's have more or less seen games like it for awhile. Not graphically, obviously, but in regard to gameplay and SciFi shooter elements.
I love my 360 and I'll probably (eventually) get Halo 3, but it really isn't that special when compared to the hose of PC games that game before it. Flag this | Edit this post |

| "Did you stop playing Doom after Doom 2? Did you stop playing MoH after Allied Assault? Did you completely miss FFs XI, X-2, and Dirge of Cerberus?"
See, now that was my mistake for assuming people would be able to infer I was speaking of those series of games, not individual games themselves. My bad, I'll assume you are uncapable of rational thought from now on. That was in response to the specific comment that few games have lived up to the hype or caused a stir as much as Halo. All the game series I have listed have far surpassed the hype that Halo has recieved. It doesn't matter whether the end results were crappy games, but the hype surrounding them was huge.
"Or are you just high?"
Not right now, but if that changes I'll make sure to let you know. Flag this | Edit this post |

| "Halo has always been a pinnacle for all FPS games, either on consoles or on the PC."
Half-Life, Quake, Team Fortress, SOCOM, MGS....any of these ringing any bells?
"Those that respond it to be "boring" or "over-hypes" are usually easily tagged as PS2/3 fanbois, without exception."
I think it's extremely over-hyped and I don't even own a PS2/PS3. In fact, I own a 360 and have no intention of getting it.
"Few games before, or since (especially since) have lived up to the extreme hype or even created such a stir as Halo."
Refer to list above, but go ahead and add in Final Fantasy, Doom, Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto etc etc etc...
"For me personally, Halo's the only single player FPS I've ever had the desire to play more than once. Most who play it feel the same. If you must be "special" and disagree, at least don't be such a goob about it."
It's the internet; it's full of 'goobs' and proud of it. Maybe you shouldn't take every negative comment about YOUR favorite game series as an indictment of your self-worth. It's just a game. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | As man with a 2500pt Imperial Guard Army and 2000pt space wolf army, I have a great hatred of the Tyranids. That being said, even I think Dark Eldar is lame and it should be the 'nids in this expansion. Either way, DoW rocks, can't wait for this. Flag this | Edit this post |

| "We have a responsibility to our kids and our communities to protect against the effects of games that depict ultra-violent actions.." said the man behind Total Recall and The Terminator.
Something doesn't seem right about that quote...hang on, I got it:
"We Parents have a responsibility to our their kids and our their communities to protect against the effects of games that depict ultra-violent actions."
Ahhh, much better. Flag this | Edit this post |

Wow...I don't mind winning, but I'd rather it be because I was the best and not because you've apparently been hexed by a witch or shaman of some kind. That really sucks man. I wish we could figure a fair and honest way out so you could compete here. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Yeah, same here. I just didn't have time to get mine done between the Video Challenge and the fragging contest. Machinima takes a little more than a week to get everything together, especially if you want to be really good. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | No problem trog, sorry. I was in a pretty foul mood when I read your comments, so I somehow missed the tongue and cheek bits. My bad. You're comments are dead-on in regard to performance on the 7600 and the price of the x6800, however I'm holding off all judgements until the 2nd video. I just wanted to the first one to be the basic product overview. The real meat will be in part 2. Flag this | Edit this post |
