I love a good story, be it from a book, film or game but there is nothing that can pull you into a new world quite like a good game. Who can forget there first ride in a Warthog, or their first glimpse of Rapture, or seeing their first zombie in res evil, or taking down Liquid with a stinger...I think games have already proven that they are a worthy (if not superior) form of story telling.
"It’s clear to me that Grand Theft Auto and BioShock have more in common with a tea party for teddy bears than they do with the plays of Shakespeare"...I'm sorry, I'm all for people having different opinions but this is just a stupid statement.
I just bought an Elite to play this game and it does not dissapoint. The only graphical 'problem' (for lack of a better word) is on the facial animation, everything else is beautiful. I think this game has enough past Halo features to make it a trilogy but also has enough in it to stand alone. This is definatly one of the top 5 games of all time, posibaly one of the best value for money games ever, there is so much to do :)
The graphics are improved slightly in Halo 3, but you can tell a lot of the effort went into the A.I physics, Gameplay and other features that make Halo one of the all time greatest games.
to Naked_Snake : you say " I just think it sounds rather childish to wish we could all grow up to make them". Thats what I do :) and it is the best career you could think of :)
