Guerilla games created nice graphics on Red Faction: Guerilla, but they're not that good. Just look at Resident Evil 5.

Guerilla games didnt make Red faction.. they made KILLZONE 2.. o-O


Yeah lol. And what did RE5 had to do with it?

Ripped :)

Halo was a graphical powerhouse last gen.

How quickly people forget...


quoted for being true.

But this is like saying MS is milking Halo. So far, there are 3 original Halo games on the market. In 8 years, this is not that much. There were 8 Maddens.^^

There is ONE other Halo game, that used the Halo brand and transfered it to a completly different genre --> Halo Wars.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

The multiplayer beta for Reach will almost assuredly not be taking place this fall. ODST will come with a code to join the beta when it does start.

Nintendo is hiring?

Seriously, you have to admit that Nintendo is a slightly better developer than Bungie, especially considering they've been developing for 28 years to Bungie's 18 (although people have only cared about Bungie for the last 8 years, when they've been making Halo). In fact, Bungie probably isn't in the top five.

Back on topic, Halo 3 wasn't exactly a graphical powerhouse. It didn't look bad, it looked very good, but it was nothing amazing. Hopefully their new game will look better than Halo 3, but by that time, a lot of better looking games will probably be out.

Well, this sounds good. Sounds like they want someone from Crytek :P

And whilst Halo 3 might not have the greatest graphics around, don't forget Bungie's previous technical acheievements. I believe Halo 2 was one of the first games to incorporate normal mapping (first being Far Cry, made by Crytek).

By 'people', you must mean console gamers, because  Bungie was well known to the pc community, and revered by the Mac one well before Halo came around.

But they only made a couple of 'Myth' games rite? Was they on Mac too?

Ask a typical Halo fan what Bungie's first game was, 90% would say "Halo".

Halo was what put Bungie on the map, and it's not PC gamers singing their praises now, it's 360 gamers.
