The on 24 July 2009

har har...If I had the time right now I'd make a photoshop quick montage of an Oblvion sword and maybe a horse in a Halo ODST screen, but I'm kinda relaxing right now :P

Damnit though. I just spent 2000 dollhairs on a new high end 46er from the(epically superior) brand Samsung....and I'll be damned if this takes advantage of that monstrous splurge.

Very few games are natively 1080P. Only MGS 4 and Wipeout HD come to mind...

not even close

OT: no one would have probably noticed unless the guys from the B3D forums that is.

Why would it run at a different resolution to halo 3? It comes with halo 3's multiplayer content plus some new maps. It wouldn't make sense to have one resolution in the single player and one in the multiplayer...

And anyway, who cares? It didn't make halo 3 a bad game and it wont make this one bad either.

It's not about the resolution and graphics. The gameplay is what makes Halo a great game for its fans.

640p or 720p. Who really cares?

Damn man. Hate of halo is strong with you.

If you read the Bungie interview on VGchartz homepage you will find out that Halo ODST is as long as Halo 3 if not longer if you take your time with the story.

Also last time I checked this game will have 4 player split screen coop. Anyone that is not a graphics whore will accept a 4 payer coop trade off for lower resolution. Besides graphics have shown to not matter as much as gameplay this gen. Only a few die hards are left putting slow motion Killzone 2 gifs in their sig...rest of us don't really care.

And if one is a die hard graphics whore...WTH would you have a console? PS3 or 360...

You don't have to be a total graphics whore to want and appreciate good graphics. And spare us the "graphics don't matter" motto, that's not even valid for the Wii these days, so c'mon... If the game has 4-split screen that's ok if it runs at lower res on that mode, the thing is the main game is the one running at 640p, so really there's no trade off, it's just plain poor. Halo 3 is a 2 year old game which in 2007 looked just a little better than 2004 Halo 2, so basically Halo ODST has 2004 enhanced graphics. Big deal or not for the game? that's a total different argument, but it will certainly look dated.

Don't talk about things you have no clue about.

Here's Halo 2

 

 

Halo 3--Notice the simply amazing draw distances, and the near perfect lighting.  This game is very beautifull, and each pic is in game.

 

 

And lastly...

You just got served...

Oh no I won't get this game because it is not 720p and it is same resolution as Halo 3. /sarcasm

Whoa...that crow pic looks almost lifelike. Halo 3 is amazing....
