That wasn't my problem. My problem was that they know nothing about it, yet they are compairing it to tribes, and adding demerits to their review because of it.

And yet, war3 gets a 9.5, and do we really know THAT much about it? Didn't think so... And they don't have a playable demo...

Just a biased reviewer, if you ask me. You can't penalize a game for what you don't know. If there were any obvious flaws, I could see why the review was like that, but so far we know that halo has kick ass graphics, and a kick ass physics engine, and a whole load of kick ass features (like planes, hover vehicles, dropships, cool water effects, kick ass outdoor and indoor terrains, etc). And the film was meant to portray sertain aspects of Halos gameplay.

Also the "and the indoor environment seemed low in pollys" comment... Again, $100 says he is dead wrong, and that was just a pointless bash. Especially compaired to Tribes2 Buildings, you have to be kidding me!
