343 impressed me. Though i dislike the COD integration into Halo. That's not what Halo is and it never was. Wanting to modernize Halo is one thing, but IMO these additions strip Halo of it's core value: skill. Halo's multiplayer experience has always been somewhat directly correlated with skill and skill alone. Everyone for the most part started out with equal footing and as the game played out, it was skill that distinguished the winners from the losers. Sure to some degree that could be said about all games. But in games like modern warfare where one streak grants you the ability to takedown "X" number of people that isn't so. Yes the subtle addition of perks aren't that game changing, but they do detract from the "feel" of Halo's classic MP. In many situations, it can give an advantage in combat against other players, and skill may not play as large as a role as it used to. It makes the game casual-friendly IMO. Some might prefer the variation, but IMO, Halo would have been better off without the armor abilities, perks, etc. On the high point of things though there is "Pro Slayer" which for the most part is 343i's MLG slayer. No radar, no ordnance, No armor abilities, everyone has to start out with the selection of 3 same weapons loadouts, etc. Kill cam has to go though it's a horrid horrid features for any competitive multiplayer mode. I do applaud 343 for catering to all Halo fans though, as they obviously made "pro slayer" for the classic guys without all the bloated perks. Supposedly though i've heard that MLG will indeed make their own "playlist" which i certainly hope they do. I have mixed feelings about the game as far as multiplayer is concerned. For single player it's like seeing a friend i haven't seen in years. It's good to have Chief back into the scene of video gaming.

To be completely honest these stupid graphics comparisons for 3rd party games are a complete waste as there is not enough difference in either games almost 99% of the time to justify buying it for either system. Your basis should be on the controller or what system you have. Now i want to see an exclusive vs exclusive comparison. That is where ps3 takes the cake. Their exclusives far out pace the 360s.

actually the 360 graphics on 3rd party games are usually better than the ps3 due to harder coding for the ps3 and the better xenos gpu in the 360. I have both systems im not biased it's just facts. As of lately i've been loving my ps3 cause the exclusives are absolutely amazing. Vs the 360s same ole same ole.
