Wrong. Graphics, story, and models are ALWAYS part of the review.

Of course! It's months away from release! Jeez...

Could you see how, maybe, there are reasons why Bungie doesn't WANT you to see someone actually playing it? Perhaps there is no definite HUD yet, and they don't want to mislead anyone. Perhaps they haven't worked on the single player game enough to decide on which tactics to highlight. Perhaps they themselves are still debating what has been debated out here for a long time: FPS? Yes or no? You say that if they ran a filmed game session, they would have OWNED the show. I think they came darn close, and the "presentation" was a blast to watch.

How do you know what Bungie would want to hide? I would guess *countless* games were modified during development because someone, at some point, said, "Amazing <fill in the blank>! Why didn't I think of that?!"

And, yes I saw the film, three times. Like I said before, it fills in some of the blanks and gives me a clearer picture of the final product.
