Re: Honestly...I'm disappointed

In Response To: Re: Honestly...I'm disappointed (Dax01)


: Joke post?

Uhhh… no.

Proof is in the pudding. Let's see:

Halo 3:

Film support: Marathon had this in 1994.
Multiplayer Co-op: Marathon had this in 1995.
Forge: Marathon had this in 1996, and was a fully featured level editor letting you create your own levels, not just place objects like Halo 3's forge does.

Major tech innovations bring Halo 3 up to par with features we've expected since 1996. I can exempt online co-op, since internet play is very different than LAN play, but the fact that Forge doesn't let you actually create levels evens this out.

Better graphics: no complaints here.

Remind me what Halo 3 brought to the table that was new that Halo 2 didn't have besides these? What about an added FUN FACTOR? Equipment?

ODST:

Tech the same as Halo 3.

Firefight: Horde mode but worse.

If you can say with a straight face that Bungie's recent releases haven't stagnated much more than their older titles in terms of moving forward, then you're out of your mind.

Bungie, Reach is your chance to save face. Pull it together and impress! (And you don't need 16+ players to do that).

The future of me buying and playing Bungie products rests on what you do with Reach. Feel lucky I'm giving you so many chances: most others in my situation have just resorted to piracy.
