The game is delayed indefinitely, they didn't nail shit. Come off it. Not even MS thought they could sell the game they showed. Looking like a game from 6th generation isn't what good art style means. 

Yeah, I don't get this 'artstyle' argument. Halo has always had the most bland, generic art direction I've ever seen for a sci-fi shooter. you know what had great and interesting art direction? Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite. Those games had style. Halo's 'style' has always been 'generic space shooter.' It's got a Halo look and feel, but even back in 2001 I thought it was bland and unoriginal and completely forgettable. 

and that was before I knew what art direction even was. I was a dumb kid of 15 who was on board with all the 'uber realistic photoreal graphics' train, caring so much about fidelity, and even back then I was like "Man, this game looks boring." and I didn't even know why at the time. 

Ok. I could understand saying this about Halo 2. I can understand saying this about the 343 games. Hell, I can even understand saying this about Halo 1. 

But Halo 3? ODST? REEEEE-ach? You, sir, have pulled the last jenga block. Have stepped on the wrong toe. Have blurted out the only opinion to be factually incorrect in the entire universe of ideas, and that's saying a lot because some people find FRIENDS funny. I will .... do something .... sometime .... to make you wish you had never said such filthy words, well ... written such filthy words. Trust me.
