LOL! you are so funny!

Oh yeah! PERFECT DARK ZERO
BuddyC said:Whaaaaaaaat? The PS3 isn't even out yet and you're saying its already hit the metaphorical technogical wall?
Confidence Man said:Who really needs to "train" for online? Whenever I come across bots in a server, whether it's CS or PDZ or whatever I always leave. I'd rather not play at all then play with bots.
Cerrius said:oh dear, you got to be kidding me.
16 players, and all we get is Halo 2 in HD?
Confidence Man said:And it seems people have been spoiled by Gears. Nothing will look as good for a long, long time, especially nothing with the scale of a game like Halo.
my guess issublime085 said:So any theories on the X button to get this back on track? Would they do something as drastic as a cover system? Tuck and run? Lean?
Mooreberg said:How likely are we to see games that look better than MGS4 and Crysis two years from now? I don't know if it is because every console is going with PC GPU vendors that are constantly updating their products on the PC side of things, or developers aren't take full advantage of what is there, or what. But for the asking price on these systems the jump in graphics seems a lot less significant than what we saw going from PSOne/N64 to PS2/Xbox/Gamecube.
I'd say Bungie prides themselves on their AI too much that they wouldn't want to half-ass it? I'd much rather they put their resources elsewhere.ORANGUTAN said:pdz had bots why can't halo? even if they're crappy bots at least it's something
Kabouter said:You realise Crysis is coming out in February and Alan Wake will be out in '07 as well right?
PepsimanVsJoe said:So if Halo 3 had good bots nobody would want to play online?
Clearly you have a dizzying intellect

Was in an interview a while back I think, Remedy said the current release date was set for '2007'.Uncle said:Really? Where did you get this from?
Wow looks like the XBDF are out in force.
I did expect to see something very different though, I can understand the Halo 2 HD comments.

talk out of your ass much?

Hmm I don't know how I feel about that. I don't think I'd like it at all. I like my perfectly executed crouch-jumps.shpankey said:my guess isa thrust button, to fly, basically just like Tribes
Uncle said:That's funny because I read an interview from them this month where they said that they don't have no release date to aim for.
Mooreberg said:Have you been playing some of the PC games that have come out since 2004 or just Katamari Damacy? If you think this is a huge leap over a lot of what we've already seen, than keep having fun in dreamland.
Sugarman said:Looks like a next-gen Halo to me, which is freaking awesome. VERY impressed with how a lot of the enviroments remind me of Halo 1. Glad the devs made it clear they're going for a clean/classic look as opposed to the ultra detail in Gears of Wars. Halo's going to be faster paced with a larger scale, I'll gladly accept that if the ground textures don't scream masterpeice in my face.
This is something that people are going to have to realize. Gears is the best looking game ever, moreso than any other 360/PS3 game, including H3, MGS4, FF13, Mass Effect, etc. I have a feeling it's going to retain the graphics crown for quite a while... maybe until Killzone 2 or Splinter Cell 5 which is being made from the ground up for next-gen.. That new promotional ad on my 720p widescreen LCD was unbelievable... it seriously looked like high quality CG.Confidence Man said:And it seems people have been spoiled by Gears.

People expecting graphics to get considerably better than Gears are in for a rude awakening.

Not a Jellyfish said:Haha as long as they bring back open environments in single player will I be happy. halo 2 was just way to linear when compared to the first.

Wollan said:Gears is not the best looking console game shown to date but that's another discussion.
Unison said:Not to derail the thread, but what would you say the best looking console game shown to date is? (please don't say Halo 3).

AltogetherAndrews said:I've been anticipating this meltdown for a while. I've tried to make the argument about scale and enemy density vs immaculate detail quite a few times in regards to comparisons between Gears of War and certain other games, but I guess now that it relates to Halo, it's suddenly a relevant argument. Good times.

We have seen plenty of other UE3 games that will be released well after Gears and none of them really even come close. UT2k7 is the closest and even with that you can see a noticeable jump with Gears.Unison said:This is the first game to use the Unreal Engine 3. I am sure subsequent games that use the same engine (with improvements) will be able to surpass it no problem. :lol
But yeah... GoW looks so much better than these Halo shots that it's not funny.
Wollan, what do you think is the best looking console game then? FF13--a game we've barely seen anything at all of? 13% done, and a completely different genre.Wollan said:Gears is not the best looking console game shown to date but that's another discussion.
Not a Jellyfish said:that screen upsets me. I better be able to wlk to that edge in the game. instead of just a cut scene. :'(
