Lets be honest here, Halo 3 doesn't have to be the best looking game when it comes out... it doesn't even have to bring anything new to the table in terms of game play. It simply has to be optimized for widescreen HDTVs and bring the Halo combat that so many have come to enjoy. I'm more of a PS kind of guy, I like RPGs and story driven action games, but Halo 3 is reason enough for me to get a 360. Halo 2 doesn't look so hot on my 40" Samsung LCD, LN-T4066f, and I'm eager to get the HD counterpart for some late night death matching!!!
