I'm just missing out on all the halo 3 stuff.

except for the game thats going to be amazing.

This game annoys the hell out of me. Not to start a giant flame war between halo fanboys (You just can't reason with them) but halo is an overrated game. Bioshock was amazing because it was an innovative shooter rather a run and gun type. Now those games do have their Pro's but Halo 3 is just a polished Halo 2 with new multilayer maps.

With so many FPS games out there it's basically a hype-fest with every game. And it just so happens that Halo was the one that got the most hype.

Halo 1 = Amazing. It was a great, finely tuned Console Shooter.
Halo 2 = Same as Halo 1 only with different maps and an overpowered weapon.
Halo 3 = I'm PREDICTING that it will be hyped to all hell and be loved by Halo fans.

I'm gonna wait for The Orange Box, and UT3 to blow my mind. But that's just my 2 cents.

AAAAAHHHH!!! anti-halo person :crosses self: eh, your assessment of the games are right, but some of the new features and levels in H3 look amazing, and the graphics are much improved.

[The Pope]

That's it right there. People think Halo is new and improved just by its graphics alone which can't save a game. It must have a good story (campaign) which Halo doesn't. I mean come on, I played through the campaign without knowing what the hell I was doing and what the story was because Bungie couldn't keep me interested. And that is where Bioshock excels over Halo. It has a captivating story which compels you to continue, and makes you want to keep progressing though.

OMG 4 player online Co-op! Big deal. The only thing I used Co-op for was glitching which wasn't very fun. and then you have Multiplayer. I played the beta and it was the same as Halo 2 except more polished. The maps are less then stellar, but alas this is just my opinion.

If you want a real Multiplayer experience wait for UT3.

dude, i wasnt just saying graphics, i was also saying features, like the man cannon :drools: and for me, if you go into the back story of halo, the books, and stuff on www.halo.bungie.net, there is a lot in the story, whitch i like, so it did keep me occupied

[The Pope]

I didn't say "you" I said people in general think that. And in my opinion Halo didn't convey a story that kept me interested at all. But many think it's awesome which they should If they like that stuff. This is all just my opinion, so don't take it as a shot at you.

ah, ok, i read it as an attack against my sexy half dwarf self
