| weezy said: wasted my time typing this on another thread but here it goes + edits played Halo 3 about 2 days ago and was about as unimpressed as i could get..after Gears of War...halo doesnt compare. no run button? ya? lets "walk" through this "chaotic" adventure "do do do walking around and blowing shit up, oh look? chaos cometh! do do do.." HELLO DEVS???! STEP YOUR GAME UP. graphics??? talk about just throwing a shiney coat on Halo 2 with "nicer" explosion effects. physics???? definate "upgrade" from past halo's. when blowing ppl up, they be flying. weezy gives it 2, "Bungie needs to take notes from Cliffy B." thumbs down |
Yeah those last-gen body physics (the windmilling deaths) are a carbon copy of Halo 2. Next-gen rag doll physics are becoming industry standard for next-gen FPS. To leave them out (as they did in the Beta) would be astonishingly poor on the devs part.
I was so sick of over-playing Halo 2 that the only thing that could have possibly got me to buy Halo 3 would have been a COMPLETELY new experience. Instead it looks as though Bungie was afraid of changing their tried and tested formula. So it looks....well....almost the same!
And the Bubble grenades! They have those in Resistance: Fall of Man! I could not belive my eyes when I saw those things.
