Re: I played halo at E3, my thoughts....

In Response To: Re: I played halo at E3, my thoughts.... (Funky J)

: Yes, a larger budget and more powerful hardware are VERY bad things. Tell me,
: what did the PC version have to offer, besides online play and mods,
: neither of which have anything to do with Halo's original story, physics,
: graphics, etc., that the X-box version can't? As far as gameplay, story,
: and graphics are concerned, the X-box is easily as capable as the PC in
: doing all of these things.

: So I guess I'm saying that I don't think Halo had any more potential as a
: game (for me, personally) on the PC than it does on the X-box. From what I
: understand, Microsoft has no say in what Halo will be. Everything I've
: read tells me that Microsoft bought Bungie to develop for the X-box, and
: then left them to do their own thing.

: I guess I shouldn't tell you how to feel about this game, but tell me: how
: did Microsoft fuck up Halo?

They didn't. As one who has actually played Halo and the x-Box let me also add that the Graphics Chipset in the X-box is at least one Generation past the nv20 (Geforce 3) but Nvidia won't tell us any more then that.

and I hate to burst all the PC ppl's bubbles but the Games on the X-box looked better then any Computer games grachics on the Market today and even better then most of the new PC games being shown at E3. The X-box LOOKS AMMAZING!
