IGN Xbox360 editors say Halo 3 is not impressive. I just read their thoughts on the game in the podcast...

Damn that sucks i was gonna get Xbox360 but i duno anymore. Because I always rely no IGN for their reviews, they got the best. And usually when they say something, they are right.

They didn't like Halo 3, they say it's graphics and gameplay were the same as Halo 2. Maybe it won't be as good as everyone thought it would be?

Does this news make u rethink halo 3? It sure does make me less hyped about it.

We'll just have to see.  You can never tell much about a game until it comes out and is reviewed IMO.  I'll probably get it, unless it bombs, which is very unlikely.

Thats not what IGN.com says... Taken from: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/803/803489p2.html

"With that, our all-too-brief Halo 3 single-player demo ended, and the lights were brought up. Nearly everyone in attendance agreed that this was the footage that Microsoft should have closed the press conference with, as it surely would have impressed just about everyone in attendance. The game is definitely shaping up nicely, and the single-player campaign looks much better than the multiplayer. We'll be bringing you more information on Halo 3 later this afternoon, as we'll be checking out some different elements during our E3 meeting with Microsoft."

Graphics shouldn't be the main concern. Gameplay is what matters and I feel that Halo 2 didn't have much more to it from 1, H2 felt like a Halo 1.5. I feel that Halo 3 will just be another upgrade. I never felt that Halo brought anything to to the table for a FPS but it always carried a great fanbase that allowed it to be a valuable game since there are always plenty of games. I'm not expecting much for Halo 3.

But then at least I won't be disappointed with its result.

You aren't sure if you're going to buy the game but your name is "Halo3FTW!" and your avatar is Master Chief? I suggest you make a new account.

yeah but you are ignoring the fact that he says that most of the time he agrees with their opinion. Games he likes, they like, games he doesnt like, they tend to bash. So if they say they dont like Halo 3, he has a history of being in accordance with their reviews which would naturally make him think twice about buying the game.

Of course he should try it out to form his own opinion. But sometimes you DO have to listen to reviewers, especially since games go for $60 each this generation. If you bought every game you thought looked cool you would be somewhat disapointed half of the time. Before I buy any game i check out the reviews from all major sites. I look and see what their reviews have in common and i compare their reasons for liking or disliking a game. So far, I have not regretted paying $60 for any game this generation (for me, about 16 months).

But I really hope Halo 3 can live up to all this hype. If you think about it, all the hype comes from the awesomeness of Halo CE...that game was groundbreaking in so many respects. Halo 2 disapointed some gamers, but it also had massive hype thanks to Halo CE. Im afraid it might be the same sitaution here. When I think of Halo I think of CE....not Halo 2. Halo 2 was cool but really how much better can Halo 3 be than Halo 2? Its all based on the same formula from Halo CE. I dont know...I Reallyhope this game shines because it would be a pitty if it didnt.

You may of not been around the gameing community that long or you have but not of notice as much as other people have. But you will learn that not every website is reliable(IGN,GAMESPOT). I dont like IGN because they complain about every little stupid thing sometimes, and like gamespot review games based on a demos and have some one write a something about a game but yet the guy that wrights has never played that game or know nothing about. It makes them look stupid. You cant forget about that fat ass guy that thinks what he thinks is the way everyone should think.

who cares? i don't and neither should yall. Im certainly not a halo fanboy but I played the beta and it was fun...and for me that's all that matters. I don't care what any review says. Its the end of a great series of games; even if the game "plays the same" the story will be great, and the multiplayer is fun. and I emphasize the previous period!

It always seems to me that IGN favours Sony's PS3 more.

Just a feeling from the reviews, previews and everything, you can tell if you read and visit their website a lot.

and btw... (to karnis)...once again Im not a fanboy... Killzone 2 looks (not graphically but mechanically) just as mediocre as the first, which was a failure. The only reason the first game got attention is because playstation-only FPSs are terrible, generally speaking, and it had potential.

I am actually not that big of a halo fan. I liked the last two games, but I wasn't really in awe of them or anything. From the most recent stuff I have seen on halo 3 I am fairly excited. From the videos that I have seen the game is going to be better then I was expecting it to be.

besides talking about Hour Of Victory.... then listen to GS or what other reviews are up about it
