OF ALL TIME

Ask them if they are going to inprove on the death match voice overs...I dont think people using racial slurs and swearing constantly really fits the sci-fi premise.

Then ask them if they redid the tea bag animation.

I don't think its the most anticipated game of all time. It probably is to some...But not me! I am so bad at them, that my friends make me play as a pink and purple elite named piglet...

Of all time... in America.

Of all time... to Xbots

OF ALL TIME IN THE XBOX WORLD!!!

I laugh at #5...

Obviously, he is a PlaystationBoy.

Damn those are some fugly modded 360s

lucky basterds

Of all time? Whoever made that poster obviously missed Christmas when SMB3 came out.

All 35 people who read game mags back then, right mr Rubang?

You guys are such wanna bes, I can't stand it.

It's cool to hate on Halo, so let me lace up mah chucks, snort some drugs, kiss a few mens, and get t the mall, where I can go t Gamestop and make fun of Captain Chief, or whatever.

Kill yourselves.

If you had a valid reason to hate on Halo2, then say it: Maybe you like the Unreal Engine better. Maybe Rainbow six is more your speed.

But face it... What other game sells comics of it self at 30$ after 3 years on the shelves?

The game is balanced, the maps are smart, and the story is pretty damn cool. (If you're into that sort of thing.)

Now, I'm not a huge fan of the GTA series, but I don't bomb every thread saying : LOL< LETS JUST KILL THINGS AND USE CODES SWEET.

You're all juvenile. you're /b/ jokes don't work on joystiq, and you're most likely all fat guys.

Chill out.

in b4 an hero and shit, you retards.

Get the hell over yourself and shut up. Was I hating on Halo? I was saying that whoever made that poster is using some extreme exaggeration, and you know I'm right. Or are you going to argue that this game is more anticipated than SMB3 was? Try, please.

Well said :P

@11
i agree with most things you say but then you take a somewhat well worded and thought out statement and took a shit all over it

i don't think you're really in a position to call anyone juvenile when you resort to calling every a fat guy and retards

It's the most anticipated game of the year 2007 on any platform, I'll give it that much. Please don't say something silly like MGS4 or Smash Bros can touch this game's heat, but it's certainly not the most anticipated game of all time.

@Shmil
Haha!!

@dmbrandon
Someone's a little defensive... I may have missed someone, but I don't think anyone was ripping on the game itself... that ad said it was the most anticipated game of all time... that's what everyone was ripping on... calm down...

Here are my questions:

1) What's the autoaim like?
2) What's the lunge (or lack thereof) like?
3) How's the weapon balance?
4) Which is better now: BR or Carbine?
5) Which is the best "go to gun" that's not like... psychotically powerful (e.g.: Spartan Laser)?

Thanks, if you can answer these.

How many players for multiplayer on a single console? Can we do 4 to a box like Halo's 1 and 2? Or is it going to be crappy 2 to a box like Gears?

@dmbrandon

Heres a decent reason not to like Halo 2's single player. It seemed like they just made it so they could make another Halo and it doesn't seem like the storlyine was planned at all, but i'll give it that it's got good multiplayer and halo 1 was good. But I'm probably not gonna like Halo 3 at all for the single player.

So, did you play the new Gears maps?

"Most Anticipated Game Release Of All Time."

And Halo fans wonder why some people rag the game so much.

It's already got 4 million pre-orders (not sure if that is only counting Gamestop/EBgames data, or not, could be more). So ofcourse there are going to be haters; Namely the people with a 600 dollar PS3 that has no good games yet. While I love my PSP (for all the quirky Japanese games) Sony's motto seems to be "Just wait till X game comes out, then you'll see!" this generation (PSP and PS3) and so we wait....and wait...and wait....until it's too late and we've wasted a boatload of time. I refuse to do that with the PS3, so I'm not buying one for another year or so (though I will rent one to play Ninja Gaiden Sigma). I'm still sorta sad I bought a wii, since the drought is in full swing and there is no hope on the horizon (till atleast november). And by November when smash bro's/mario galaxies comes out, I'm going to have no time to play either. Why? Halo 3! Grand Theft Auto 4! Unreal Tournament 2007! This is the worst possible time for a drought.

GTA3: San Andreas sold 14.88 million on the PS2 and 1.94 million on the XBox for a total of 16.82 million copies. Halo 2 sold 7.89 million copies. I'd say by those numbers alone GTA4 is more highly anticipated than Halo 3. GTA4 will also be on 2 systems meaning it has more potential customers (although 360 owners might prefer Halo 3 and PS3 owners might not exist yet). I'm not knocking the game here. I'm simply talking anticipation.


And why would they want to call it the most anticipated game release of all time? ALL TIME would include the future. They're basically telling you "You'll look forward to this game more than you'll look forward to Halo 4, because Halo 3 will be ruining the franchise and you won't want anymore... suckers."

Things I hate abotu Halo

The aim system (the slow aim in the center and quick aim/movement on the sides is so bad adjusting the sensitivity is rendered pointless)

Auto aim as a OPTION (I dunno I would like to turn it off and enjoy the game altho with the current aim systems thats impossible)

Button mapping(any FPS without it sucks)

Visual/projectile glitches H2 had so many its almost funny the elevator level is sloppy.

Don't get me wrong Halo is a fun game..on the computer...the console versions are so rough around the edges and short sighted when it comes to control I would to see the polish they put into the PC games for H3...wishful thinking since a more polished PC game will sale vista better.....
