In Response To: Re: Hyp(ocrit)es Hurt ({BZ}SINginius) > Hmm... could it have been a movie of Multiplayer gameplay? Basically, everything but the ambient life was more or less scripted. I think, in terms of style, it reflects single player most closely but in terms of gameplay it is more multiplayer. What do I mean? Well, the speech, pauses, tactics, exploration, etc. are all too complex for single player but they were all too dramatic and goal/story (the scene did follow a "story") orientated to be multiplayer (a lot of the behavior is inconsistent with a multiplayer game, too). Again, the most convincing part is that Bungie didn't say anything. If they had said "This is a filmed multiplayer session." it would have been all over... Halo would have gotten Best of Action, Best of Show, etc. from everyone. Instead they said, "This is how we hope Halo will play... but these are all scripted sequences." so obviously some people are going to be dubious if Halo will actually play like that or not. If they had shown off a playtest of a multiplayer game or even Mofocross... I bet they'd get even more acclaim. Sure it would have looked less pretty (presentation-wise), but we already know Halo's pretty! Some of the most exciting moments at E3, at least for me, was the chance to play quick and dirty beta's regardless of polish or presentation. Trying Oni and Capcom vs SNK was a blast despite all the issues. Ah well, back to nightmares about wall-hugging hippos and midgets made up to look like KISS. | |
