I'm pretty sure he means 'phat'. An understandable mistake on the reporter's behalf.

Sean Connery materialized the first video games with his mind.

No, it was Chuck Norris' left leg, his right leg created consoles.

Are you sure that's the end of the quote? By the level of Sony product placement that was in that movie, I'd expect something more along the lines of "Every James Bond needs his mighty PLAYSTATION3".

I'm surprised Sony wasn't plastered on the guns too.
It made me not like the film.

Doesn't help that the film itself was broke.

Connery>Brosnan>Moore>Dalton>Craig>Lazenby.

But that's not an insult. I actually like all of them except for Lazenby.

I thought this was a great bond film. I am so releaved they got away from a dead formula.

Sean Connery is still the mackingest individual bond. Who can top "Well, hello Pusshy!?"

Though I agree the movie's script was lacking, I thought he was a more interesting Bond than we have been given in the last few incarnations.

If he's into a "big fat story line", surely he hasn't "honed his shooting skills against the Covenant".

Actually, the Halo universe has a quite expansive backstory to it and offers an abundance of information for those who look into it. Post your hate elsewhere troll.

Lots of games have extensive backstories but little to no in-game development.

Sort of like Star Wars: Pod Racer?

(Frankly though, Halo's problem was never the storyline, it's more about the level design. Copy-pasting to make levels larger is marginally worse than random battles every 5 steps in my list of worst methods to artificially lengthen game time)

yeah, but the multiplayer in halo3 is pretty darn good. I like the items, and the controls are as good as a console shooter could probably ever get

Agreed- I don't care how 'complicated' the Halo backstory is- it's silly drivel. The first time an alien ran away screaming in high pitched english, I literally nearly fell off my chair laughing AT the game. I never expected anything that stupid. Since then, the games have provided plenty of other 'just how dumb are writers?' moments.

Halo's story is a joke and you're not a troll for thinking so. At least the multiplayer is fun.

ummm what do the grunts have anything to do with the actual plot? And I completely disagree with you, Halo story line is pretty damn good. And you defiantly appreciate it more if you read the books and comics. Sure it doesn't have the best plot in the world, but it's still highly enjoyable.

The story states that Craig is "quite into ones that have a big fat story line".

Why would the article's author assume he plays a game whose biggest negative is it's sub-par story and lack of character development? Wouldn't a Half-Life or Bioshock reference be more appropriate?

The "He'd already honed his shooting skills against the Covenant" comment seemed a bit out of place to me.

In order to get any real story or plot out of Halo, you kinda have to read the books and such, since they forgot to put any real plot into the games themselves.

Its weird how halo fans always defend the games by pointing out that the books have a great plot.

Why they decided not to explain any of this great plot in the actually games is beyond me.

maybe it's because no matter how hard we try to explain it, you're not really going to care and you're going to continue hating on Halo 3.

I thought Craig was a great Bond. In my opinion, Casino Royale was one of the better Bonds.

[Especially compared to Die Another Day]

Die Another Day was possibly the worse Bond ever(and I've seen all of them but Live and Let Die) I heard that Pierce Brosnan wanted to make another big exlosion spectacular, but moving to Daniel Craig gave them the reason to "refresh" the series so I'm glad they did.

Oh heavens no ogvor! Brosnan's contract was up, and he said he didn't care if they brought him back or not, because he was sick of just having sex, delivering one-liners, and dodging explosions. He wanted a big fat plot, like the old classics, and even said his favorite was From Russia With Love!

The producers were actually trying to get a younger American actor to play Bond, (they seriously considered Heath Ledger) and they wanted the next movie to take place in America, and there were some big arguments about whether they should make the series more American or keep it "international." I was ready to give up on the series entirely after the clusterfuck that was Die Another Day's plot and "editing." I have no idea how they pulled their heads out of their asses and actually made a decent relaunching of the series. Now I'm finally looking forward to a sequel again.

Based on the title, I was expecting it to be that the new Bond films would feature Bond on a PS3 playing Heavenly Sword.

If Casino Royale didn't already proove it, Daniel Craig is the best Bond, it's now official.

Casino Royale was good until it was 20 minutes of romantic music and panning of gorgeous euro vistas.

Seriously, wtf.

Goldeneye is still IMO the best Bond, and I have seen all but maybe 2 of them.

Although I really like GoldenEye, to me it was a fairly weak relaunching of the series, which died when they ran out of ideas from Ian Fleming's unfinished stories and had to start writing on their own. I think they got more back on track with Tomorrow Never Dies, but then went batshit crazy with the mess of Die Another Day.

tomorrow never dies was just a rehash of the spy who loved me, which, while good, was a rehash of you only live twice

You guys really didnt have a problem with Casino Royale? The man was a terrible Bond. First off, this guy is supposed to be the youngest James Bond in any of the movies, he looks like he's 40. And hes Blonde. Then the movie is set in our time so everyone is walking around with cell phones and seem more technologically advanced then Bond. And to top it off the man passes up some puss once he gets some info on her and she was begging for it. None of the other Bonds would of passed up some ho. I thought the movie was terrible I couldn't even finish it, thank god I got for free and didn't waste any money on it.

That's possibly one of the dumbest reasons to not like Daniel Craig.

Because he doesn't think with his dick, he's the worst bond ever.

Seriously do all of us a favor and go outside and shoot yourself.

Whatever, I think that Daniel Craig was the best Bond. I liked that he wasn't a chauvinist. If you miss that about Bond, there are like 300 previous Bond movies for you to cry your shoulder on.

Also, whoever made it sound like you think Heath Ledger is American - He's Australian. But whoever thought of Americanizing James Bond is a dumbass. What would be the point? Us Americans cannot be suave. It isn't possible. At best we can be "cool." SOMETIMES.
