In Response To: Re: Gamespot misses mark with Halo!!!! (BIGwooly)

: I'd like to know where Halo 'fails' as a FPS. What is Halo lacking as a FPS
: that deems it worthy of only 3rd place?

: Is it because you can only carry 2 weapons, as I've heard some complain
: about? **Well, chalk that one up to the realism factor, boys.**

: Is it because some weapons that were 'supposedly' going to be in the game
: aren't in the game? **Every game goes through stages where ideas are
: entertained for a period of time, and only the best are kept.**

: I could go on and on, listing items some people are viewing as shortcomings
: of the game, and refuting each and every one.

: It amazes me how Bungie can develop the most advanced (hands-down) FPS ever,
: and yet people quickly forget all the things that make it so advanced.
: MGS2 is a very solid game (forgive the pun), but when you consider all the
: innovative additions that Halo touts, MGS2 is not even in the same league.

: I understand Tony Hawk is a great game, but where is the innovation? What
: great new, never-done-before features can it tout? I don't want to diss
: the ppl who like skateboarding games, but come on. What if a buddy and I
: went out and developed the best new Pac-Man game to come along in years.
: Just because it's the in its genre, should it be rated a better game than
: Halo? See my point?

: GOTY should go to the absolute best game. The game everybody wants to play.
: The game everybody has been waiting for. The two games that come to mind
: are MGS2 and Halo. How many thousands of websites and forums and fansites
: and so on are dedicated to Tony Hawk? Now compare to Halo, or MGS2.

: Halo deserves GOTY. And if not Halo for some inconceivable reason, then I
: still think the advanced gameplay that MGS2 offers should earn it GOTY.

: BIGwooly
: •you've just been woolied•

I can defnatly see your point in this , and I agree.
Halo ,has bean bashed for not having bots in multyplayer, some claim that the framrate isent stable ,others say its short ,others say its repetetive in some levels..etc.

But all of this is hidden by the huge shadow that halo makes with its inovation and breaktrough inovating tecnolagies.
So many that I do not dare to mantion any.

Im not making any new points here so ill just shut up.
