Title: ok Halo 1 and 2 are still great
Post by: abrader on October 01, 2007, 05:23:03 AM: Halo 1 - LOOKS AS GOOD AS Halo3. Machine pistol with the zoom sight was an awesome handgun....play it on Legendary and every pin down feels like a hollywood movie.

Halo 2 - Campaign has its great moments - but more importantly, this game brought Halo online.

I have been playing Halo 1 and 2 this weekend instead of Halo 3 - why? I wanted a story refresher...

The result observation? These are the three best video games I have owned in my entire life. They do just about everything right and are king of their genre easially.

I think Killzone 2 will OWN Halo 3 in modes/content - but cant it nail the core satisfying Halo gameplay mechanics that make us want to play the game again and again over and over?

I need to refresh on Killzone 1 - but I dont think its as close.....not nearly...

halo 3 surpassed my expectation, promised little and delivered.

halo 1 is near perfection

I highly doubt Killzone 2 will do anything new or even do anything better than Halo 3 does.

Planetside on consoles pretty much.

The 'sources' are bullshit though and if KZ2 does anything remotely similar, I'll eat Willco's underwear.

Halo 2's single player was an abomination to the name. Online was great until I stopped playing it every night, at which point I guess I was no longer welcome to play.

I haven't played Halo 3 yet.

Post by: brawndolicious on October 01, 2007, 07:33:55 PM: I can't see GG doing something like that AND having it functional. I mean, if this was something they based the entire game around and that it was hyped from the first day this game was announced, then I would expect to see it but I wouldn't expect to see it done right.
