: I am impressed with Halo's graphics. There might be other games with graphics
: of equal quality, but that doesn't mean that Halo is going to be just
: another game on the shelf. I don't know of any other game where the player
: can switch from going on foot to driving a jeep to flying a plane. The
: graphics are not the most picturesque, but the game play looks
: unparalleled in the range of tactics that can be used at one time. I want
: to play this game to use tactics instead of relying on the lone wolf of
: unreal tournament to take a flag and run back with it.
: I also have another comment: Why is it we still play marathon, and myth after
: they have been around for several years and the boxes are collecting dust.
: We play them because the game play and story lines are unbelievable and
: not matched. Not because of how pretty it is when a pfhor’s corpse sails
: down a hallway. However much fun that is.
Having just come back from the Fanfest, I thought I should point out that Halo's graphics are REALLY amazing. If you think they aren't picturesque, wait until you see the valleys, waterfalls, meteorites streaking through the night sky, glowing Covenant energy shields left lying around after a battle, clouds of black grenade smoke billowing up, and a whole lot more. And if you think a dying Pfhor corpse looks cool, imagine it flailing it's arms and legs before it hits a boulder and dies in a purple-stained heap. :-) :-)
