Gollum1 0 Posted November 1, 2004 It seems like the guy who did the storyline really is spanking the juices out of the story and making a really good one. You can tell by the movie like commerical. Lol, some dumbass parent will think it's a animated movie commerical like Toy Story :P!!!! Yeah what a DUMBASS parent, probably doesn't know a thing about Halo the XBOX GAME and assumes it's an ANIMATED MOVIE since the commercial looks like it! Some people just aren't as smart and informed as us teen Interweb denizens, I guess! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master_Chief 0 Posted November 1, 2004 It seems like the guy who did the storyline really is spanking the juices out of the story and making a really good one. Actually, the whole story for Halo, Halo 2 and the 3 books was written before Halo was made. It was called the 'Halo Bible' and it contains all the plots/character backgrounds. This is how Star Wars was written IIRC. Would be an interesting read... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackdog~ 0 Posted November 8, 2004 Halo sucks, from my experience. It's all about Half-Life 2 and you can't deny that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpecOp9 0 Posted November 8, 2004 Well at least he said "in my opinion" and did'nt flat out say Halo sucks. Â Because it's obvious in this world, that's not the case. Anyway, things sure went by fast. Â Tomorrow is game release...those who care, probably already know that. There are MANY MANY more screenshots at Gamespot.com now. Â But, tomorrow at 8 in the morning I will be outside of my Target store ready to be the first to buy Halo 2. Quote[/b] ]Huh? [Gareth Gates must die] and I think Batdog was just relating the release of Halo 2 to new years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skul 0 Posted November 8, 2004 Ehh, a few weeks to go before the REAL New Year, though. I'm definitely gonna be getting Halo 2. I need to get more memory if I'm gonna get Half-Life 2 to run at a decent resolution and framerate. If I can get Doom 3 to run as smooth as butter, then Half-Life 2 should flow like a dream, since it's been designed in such a way that even lower-end PCs can run it at a half-decent framerate.

AdmiralKarlDonuts 0 Posted November 10, 2004 Heh, I was in a 16-player launch party a couple of hours ago - a solid 3 hours of carnage. Lots of cool shit but all the same fun as the original. Though I thought it was dumb that they renamed Blood Gulch to something stupid (I forget what), though the level is a lot bigger and the bases are bigger with multiple levels and stuff. Battle Creek somehow became "Beaver Creek"....I dunno what that's all about but it's still friggin great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gandalf the white 0 Posted November 10, 2004 I heard bad things about the AI. Is it really that...stupid? Halo AI was one of the best compared to "other" games . or atleast as best as possible with a 733 MHZ chip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Frenchman 0 Posted November 11, 2004 I am hearing alot of bad stuff about both SP and MP: *Lots of glitches *crappy MP set up *dont die from high falls *unpolished level sections Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakerod 254 Posted November 11, 2004 Don't Die from high falls. sometimes when a vehicle hits you, you don't die. MP setup isnt that bad it is a bit more confusing. There are A LOT of great pros tho too. Maps are huge which is fun. Assault Rifle Rocks You can kick people off of vehicles More vehicles Blood Gulch map is a lot cooler New weapons are fairly good (some of them piss me off) That coming from someone who said "Id kill myself before I liked any HALO game" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m21man 0 Posted November 11, 2004 Quote[/b] ]OFP anyone?? :P Yeah, we all love the way that an AI driver handles a vehicle in close quarters . "Left! Left! LEFT AND FAST, DAMMIT! MOVE!!! RPG! RPG! MOVE!!! NOOOOOOO---" *BOOM!* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
