Haloverated Posted 12-16-2007
Alright, I''ll get down to it, the name of the site is Haloverated (Combination of Halo and Overrated), so here are my ideas on Halo 3, and the series. I didn't own a Xbox, so I never owned Halo or Halo 2. However, on occasion, very rare occasion I would play these games. They were alright, and provided hype for the upcoming Halo 3, obviously, in my opinion, too much hype. I didn't receive the Beta of Halo 3 because I wasn't interested in paying money for Crackdown, a game for which I had no care for. However, my friend had it, and the graphics resembled Halo 2, maybe a bit better, but not much. The first couple days after playing his Halo 3 Beta he talked about how kick ass it was, however, as a weak went by he talked about the game being less than expecting, and boring. Later on, about a week and a half of owning the Beta his Xbox 360 crashed, the Beta had ruined his Hard Drive. after the Beta, shortly before the release of Halo 3, the full game,I was informed the graphics in the "Real Thing" would be amazing, much better than the Beta. I purchased Halo 3 midnight, the first day it was out. Of course I had to wait in a line of "Halo Lovers," or "Halo Loving Bastards." However, I was not in line because I was an enthusiast of the Halo trilogy, I had just been to lazy to Pre-Order Halo 3, and I didn't want to end up waiting on a sold out, back ordered game. Once I arrived home with Halo 3 I went to sleep, many people played it and then skipped school the next day, I didn't. I went to school, and when I got home, I played for the first time, the graphics were the same as they were in the Beta. That is what I first noticed, how un-optimized the graphics were for such a powerful system. This was very disappointing to me since I own a High Definition Television, not the largest one available, but its decent, and how am I supposed to show off how beautiful it makes games look if the game looks like shit. Gears of War, one of the early releases for the 360, released over a year before Halo 3 still, using the Unreal 3 Engine, has better graphics than Halo 3, embarrassing. So, I started playing and noticed how easy it was in multi player (I didn't bother staring Campaign because I really don't give a fuck, I wouldn't have purchased Xbox Live if I wasn't going to use it). This was disappointing because I didn't own Halo or Halo 2, and the game play was so easy which demonstrates any one can be good at Halo 3. I don't like games which are so easy. In Gears of War I had to develop skill, and only people with skills got kills, its a whole different story in Halo 3. Also, I played only an hour or two, and leveled up very quick, I want a goal to look forward too, and that is being a level 50, I want it to take a while. Again, comparing to Gears of War, there was a Seriously Achievement, you had to work toward 10,000 kills in ranked games, a very time devoted achievement. Besides, these complaints I found Halo 3 a mediocre game, that was until they updated the Play list for Team Slayer. In the games first weak there was an option in Team Slayer, you could play basic Team Slayer, or veto this and play Shotty Sniper Team Slayer, I loved having the option because I loved Shotty Sniper. An update in the play list almost abolished Shotty Sniper, the frequency is rare now. This was the last straw for me, how much can you fuck up a game, I don't care if people didn't like Shotty Sniper, and I'm aware many didn't, but I liked having the option. After I realized the lack of Shotty Sniper I stopped playing Halo 3, or at least playing it frequently, I rather play Gears of War. You guys can comment and say what you want, but in my opinion, Halo 3 is disappointing.
