Halo games are really good entertainment, and that's fairly consistent. The story has been super-crappy and really intrusive since Halo 2, and there's been way too much location hopping as of late, but it's always fun causing chain reactions of grenades and beating up grunts. The magneto-aim and barn size reticles seem a bit silly at first, but it keeps you winning, so hey.

I'm not really the best person to speak towards the single player. I generally find the single player in Halo games immensely boring and repetitive and the story absolutely impossible to follow.

But then that is just a my taste kind of thing. I prefer a campaign like Gears of War where its more about fun and being on a roller coaster ride. I had more fun playing Modern Warfare 2 campaign than I do Halo campaigns. I can obviously see why somebody would have the complete opposite view however.

Like a lot of people I fell in love with Halo 2 MP and that carried over to 3 for awhile but at this point like I said, I'm ready for a change. Other fps MP games have evolved to where I prefer them so hopefully Reach also evolves quite a bit.

Is it my imagination, or did DJ Hero win the VGA for Best Soundtrack -- over not only 100+ epic metal tracks in Brutal Legend, but also The Beatles Rock Band?

That's pretty funny, you should do one with a 360 and that girl having sex, and when they're done, make her all nervous because the condom broke, the condom being the 360 getting red ringed.

That ps3 one wasn't very funny at all.

True, PS3 has ONE GAME, as Spike showed us

Prince of Persia is so dissapointing. The last one was great. They didn't need to remake Sands of Time.

The Forgotten Sands trailer was still dumb.

Halo is popular because:

A.) It has a legacy on the Xbox consoles and satisfies fans of the series.
B.) It still controls well as a console fps compared to most series (Hint this is also a large reason why COD is popular)
C.) The single player campaign while it does nothing really for me is liked by quite a number of people due to the AI and the story elements.
D.) Bungie takes the MP part seriously and services their community well.

Its not a grand mystery. Whether you personally like Halo or not, its not too hard to figure out why its a popular series.

As far as Reach, it will come down to the MP on whether I buy. ODST was a bit of scam imo but Reach seems like a legit game from all the info we have and the time spent on the development side. I'm bit tired of traditional Halo MP so I hope they re-work a lot of that stuff and do a lot of the class based stuff that has been rumoured.

Pretty much. It's a fun game, and one of the few console FPS games that features the tight controls I like. I've only played bits and pieces of the single player so I can't comment on it, but the multiplayer is amazing

bork · « **Reply #375 on:** December 14, 2009, 02:00:11 PM »

Halo multiplayer is still the best console FPS out there. I never bothered with the campaigns in Halo 1 or 2, nor did I ever care to. Multi was always where it was at. The game was so popular that it was easy to get 12-16 player LAN games going before Halo 2 took it online.

I miss those days. It was more fun being with a bunch of friends in the same room(s) versus playing online.

Definitely. Some friends and I still get together and do system link with two TVs and two OG Xboxes and do 8-player rocket ball in Halo 2.

I am not sure if God of War 3 is a system seller, but if anything is, it's that.

God of War

God of War a system seller? Maybe if they called it Call of Duty: God of War.

I've been saying it for two E3s now, God of War 3 and GT5 are the only two games with potential to sell big. Well, at least in Western places. Final Fantasy XIII is probably going to be in Japan along with Versus XIII, and depending on how popular that brand still in (and if Versus XIII remains exclusive) it might do fine here. There is also the Agent game from Rockstar, which probably won't be relevant when it comes out in 2011 or something. This is without factoring in the almost assured failure of the saggle diddle stick and whatever minor support sony give sit.

Super sexy. Man. It looks like they evolved the art style a little as well, making it even more comic-style. Maybe Heavy Metal, but still comics.
