Well I'll be damned the day I see fans of the 360 start preaching "game play over graphics", after receiving the same argument back when XBOX was first released. If anything, it's even more ironic that it's being said about Halo. Anyway, Halo 3 obviously has the better graphics, and I could care less how big the improvement is as long as it's noticeable. I'd hate for all the future titles on the 360 to be expected to look like Gears of War. Bungie did a good enough job, assuming they delivered on every (if not almost) other aspect of the game.

No disrespect to Mac users and fans, but I doubt GameSpot would be giving Vista the [amount] of attention they've given it, had it not the effect on PC gaming it's going to have, something MACs will have none of. This is a gaming website. To really hate on the Vista [here] is a very predictable waste of time, especially when your MACs won't be using it, only lowering the necessity for you to read this feature and over/critically analyze Vista as if you planned on using it in the first place. MAC users should actually appreciate Microsoft's attempt to 'dolly up' Vista [even if borrowing from, or being inspired by OSX], because it shows they're trying to help influence those of you who are potential Windows users. They say imitation is the best form of flattery, but of course, ignorance is bliss. There's more bickering about how the thing looks, price and what people think they [and everyone else that owns a computer] need it for than there is about the actual technology at hand.

I'm getting Windows Vista Ultimate this weekend. If it weren't for the complete and utter steal/deal I was getting it for (which I almost missed by 12 hours) I wouldn't have seen myself with Vista even in 2008. For the price, it's impossible I wouldn't be getting what I paid for, and even more so, that it wouldn't have been worth it. I'm looking very forward to my personal Vista experience, and seeing the retail prices as well as GameSpot's, so far, features on the OS, only make me feel better about it.
