Wasn't Tip of the Spear a level in Gears 2?  They could have probably come up with a name that wasn't used by the Xbox's other great shooter... haha. And yes, the game looks great!


LOL.

Just curious. Why is everyone talking about the game looking great? It's cool that people think the graphics are great, but I was more impressed to find out that the sense of scale and enemy number count is greater than we thought. It's gonna be insanely amazing watching the 360 pull this off.

thats a big improvement over halo 3. well halo 3 had some of the worst graphics i have ever seen, but i still dont like the sci fi feel of the game.

Are you kidding me?  Saying Halo 3 has some of the worst graphics ever is pretty hilarious considering you have Dragon Age Origins as your avatar.  That game on consoles was way worse graphically than Halo 3.


dargon age origins has bad graphics, but the graphics of halo 3 didnt allow me to enjoy the campaign properly. the game was fun especially co-op but the graphics and art style really turned me off(may i point out that i played it 3 months ago)

That may be a good reason why, considering it came out almost 3 years ago, now :p

That is a nice looking gif, such a shame its to big to be allowed in your sig. Halo Reach has good graphics, not great but the shear scale trumps most games. Having 60 enemies at once is some of the biggest battles I have seen. Zombie and hack n slash games likes N3 don't count as there is no practically AI for those games.

Left for dead =p!!  Don't tell me the enemies have to be alive now.



 

I think Halo 3 gets unfairly slated in the graphics department. In the campaign at least it had some really nice outside environment graphics and great draw distances.

I know it's opinion. But Halo 3's art was amazing. And some of the outdoor draw distances still arent beaten today on consoles.

Well Halo: CE and Halo 2 were one of the best looking games at their releasedate so people expeced that aswell for Halo 3.....and if you compare Halo 3 graphic wise with a game that released one year before called Gears of war.......



 

Looks amazing, and may I point out. Best looking sky ever?

the enviorments werent bad, but i hated the spaceships, the look of the guns, the aliens, the buggies. i also didnt like the colors and the lightning in the game, but it looks like bungie fixed some of those problems. i enjoyed the multiplayer more then the campaign merely because i didnt see aliens, i liked the old school feeling the game had, reminded me of half life. but i just dont like sci fi games.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

I don't remember that trailer. You had to remind me just now. and I still don't remember.

 

I guess everyones out.
