The_God_of_War said: Don't listen to Aaron Greenburg. If the game is going to have split screen co-op and large, open environments it isn't going to have the best technical graphics, simple as that. I'm far more interested in the gameplay itself and promise of gigantic, epic battles than how shiny it looks. |
Couldn't have said it better.
I actually think Halo 3 looks rather good considering all that's going on. I mean... when you play Firefight on a map like Last Resort and you have 2-3 Brute Choppers, a couple of Ghosts and Wraiths, 5-10 packs of Brutes with Grunts, Snipers, and guys on turrets while 4 guys are blowing stuff up left and right and there are no slow downs it really does show that although not being a graphical masterpiece it's still a technical showcase. (run on much?)
As for the trailer - It looks really good. The lighting and dust effects are there and the textures are decent on the characters but there's still a ton of time left for this to be improved. I guess we'll just wait and see. I'm looking forward to game modes and gameplay mechanics more than anything.
Oh and I forgot... The Elites are back as the main enemy. That alone has me fully excited.
