In Response To: Re: Halo 3 becomes Forerunner (eva05)

: Hey dude, been a while ^_^

: I was at that world premier Macworld just like you amigo, where they had the
: public multiplayer build of Oni instead of anything related to Halo. ^o^

: I even had my own Halo fan site for a few years there (maybe I didn't get my
: name in the Halo game but I was on the original Halo website ^_-)

: My one scoop interview with them at E3 2k where Jamie and Doug told me all
: about how cool the free roaming elements were...blowing up radar
: installations would allow air flight without worrying about being detected
: in certain areas...helping out/saving other soldiers in battle would yield
: more guys to help you later on (because they weren't dead).

: That was the first time we found out you would spend the majority game alone
: and the player was the only Cyborg. At that time they had been releasing
: only screenies of multiplayer. At the very least I was expecting BOBS ;-)

: But as you say, say lah say lah

Heh.

I don't think anybody's arguing that the focus of Halo - the gameplay itself - has changed over the years; you have only to look back at the Evolution vid to see that.

Where we differ is how we interpret what was said then; you seem to see it as a promise by the developers, one which they failed to deliver on several years down the road... and I see it as an initial gameplan that turned out not to work very well - so they changed it. I don't feel like they ever PROMISED the released game would be as it was in 2000, or 1998, or whenever... it was just where they were. Then, a year later, they were somewhere else.
