I agree with 'nsic and Endah

In Response To: Re: Halo World - To Matt (Forensic)

I kept my mouth shut long ago when people were going on and on about how accurate and absolutely perfect Halo was going to be. I think I finally blew a gasket when folks were claiming that the flag blowing at the end of the first Halo trailer was hyper-realistic... that each and every billow of the flag was being computed in real-time, etc etc.

I don't have a problem with a game having such wonderful things added, but I do have a problem with fans of a game raising the bar so much that the game designers will never win at the end.

This kinda all goes back to my original caveat when folks first started screaming that Halo was/is vaporware. I very simply stated that we haven't seen the game in real life. We still haven't really... we've seen no gameplay, just alot of very nifty movies. That doesn't mean I'm dissing the programmers, it just means they haven't worked it out enough to show it to all of us. When they do, I'll pass judgement on whether Halo rocks or not. That doesn't mean I don't have faith in them rocking my world. I'll put money down that it *will* rock.

Excuse the rambling...
