I don't think it's ownage... just what he's saying is true. People wanna knitpick but Halo 3 is amazing end of story.

And 9.5 is AAA average on sites is pretty much all the ownage any fanboy needs

G4 doesn't do PC games so obviously Halo 3 is amazing to them if they can't compare it old FPS. unlike many Halo haters i'm not knocking the game i've always said it's a good game, it's just not the best game or most original and i can live without it, i've said it many times Halo is a good game. but it's not original and i like other FPS more.

It was pretty funny but he lost all respect when he said the first halo was revolutionary -_- that just comes off as him being another fanboy because it doesn't have the best control scheme, it wasn't revolutionary when it came out. Noted it was fun and not a bad game at all but it does not deserve its massive hype.

No, he's saying that people who don't like Halo 3 because of minor flaws that they constantly complain about should suck a dick.

Who the hell are you to decide that? I bet you didn't even play it when it came out. Halo CE was just as revolutionary as games like MGS....

People nitpick at all games , why should Halo 3 be exempt ? Great scores are irrelevant. If people can criticise Metal Gear Solid 2 , Zelda TP , Bioshock , God of War , GTA SA , Gears of War, etc ..... then why not Halo 3 ?

Um it was revolutionary for a console FPS. It also invented regenrating health and was the first FPS game to really get vehicles right. Those kinds of innovations are revolutionary for the FPS genra.

I'm not gonna discus this right now. But most Gaming journalists agree with me. But know this: IF you think MGS was revolutionary( note the IF part) then there's no reason to think of Halo as being not revolutionary....

Goldeneye for the 64 was the FPS console revolution you were looking for not Halo, vehicle control in Halo is nothing to brag about.

If there's going to be any dick suckage around, Sessler's going to be there to watch. :lol:

He is dennouncing those who play the game for the purpose of hating it instead of playing the game for the purpose of... play. I think its fair to say that the former is quite immoral and is devoid of ethics.

Nothing that we say can change your opinion, and I sure as hell am not gonna say the same goddamn thing I say about Halo for the millionth time. You just want bring Halo down for the sake of it. And I would bet my house that not only have you not played Halo CE more than an hour, you have never had an xbox to begin with.

So lets just drop it.......

I was expecting a rational explanation of why everyone is entitled to their opinions and perhaps an explanation of why Halo 3 is a 5 star game rather than "Because it is Halo!!!111". Instead it was just an angry rant by a guy who has the same mindset as Bill O'Reilly and Hannity whose only really rebuttal was an insult.

I had the original Xbox for 2 years, in that time i had and completed Halo Combat Evolved and Halo 2 and have recently played and completed Halo 3 on my best friends 360 and guess what i still think it is a good game but it certainly gets overhyped and still defended to the death when the word 'overhyped' comes into play.

Take a good look everyone, its a lemming ... and its fugly (Attitude) ... fun is subjective matey, it was a decent experiance but average to this generation ... put that in your *** and SHOVE IT.

Its not ok to bash Halo , but then lemmings have a stab at UT3/Crysis/Far Cry 2/Killzone its all well and good, because these games is not teh "WORLD WECORDS SEWWERZ LOLZ" ...

as someone said before, what an Unprofessional attitude, credibility 0 , Fanboyism limitless.

It was an average Shooter *Experiance* , with ALOT of mini-game FPS online modes.

I'm sorry but when using Gamespot as a source of facts for an argument about a 360 game that gamespot is notorious for being overly biased towards it makes me sad.

It was the first popular game to do regenerating health, yes. That's pretty much all it deserves credit for. The vehicles were a nice touch as well, yet the controls weren't exactly spot-on in Halo: CE and it's the same way in Halo 2 and 3. Plenty of other FPS before Halo had vehicles that handled just as well.

Those two "innovations" are not exactly a revolutionary for the FPS genre, yet the regenerating health did add it's own little touch to it. (However, if Halo had not been as popular, I doubt it would've stuck with some of the games in the genre).

Gamerankings shows that Halo 3 has an average pf 94% and 35the best game of all time.

Now its your turn to bring down the Halo franchise again, please continue...
