Darren Kitchen Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I stood in line with Wess last night to pick up Halo3. I don't own an xbox but figured I'd be there to support my bro. Glad I brought the camera though, captured a little bite of the ridiculousness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I hope you can get it in the UK as a Digital Download (when it comes out) so i dont have to face madness Also, Why did that guy jump through a window? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I think it's silly, the way people go about the release of new stuff. But to each their own of course. The guy rushed out and into the car because he found himself surrounded by a lot of gamer geeks who were aching to get their hands on his recently acquired game. He must've felt threatened. And seriously, who wouldn't? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puredistortion Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 That is what the pranksters at MIT got up to LOL. Found it on digg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snubs Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I actually heard Halo 3 was good compared to the other two. Needless to say, Ii've never taken the time to go out and buy an X-box 360 for those games... Awesome video, absolutely hilarious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothCriminal Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I pre-ordered it, got it around 4 PM and loved it ever sense. I highly recommend the game. I haven't played too much of the campaign yet (only the first level), but the multi player alone is worth it. The gameplay is amazing!!

Snubs Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I've heard tons of people saying it was a great game... My little brother got it the first day and already beat it. He said it was the best of the three so far... Do you guys agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 Wess got it and I've spent a few hours watching him play. It looks beautiful and I've got to say the AI's creativity in fighting is some of the best I've seen. There are a ton of little things that will make you laugh. On top of that its absolutely gorgeous in HD. Oh and and flood are nasty little creepy things that remind me of the headcrabs in HL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the way of innovation of course. Not to flame but I don't think the first one was all that innovative. Then again I'm a bit bias coming from the PC platform. We've had Halo killers for years before the xbox was even conceived. I will however give it credit for bringing the FPS genre to the unwashed masses. I'll even go as far as to say Halo was the Goldeneye of the myspace generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nophix Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I think I'll buy it if they release it on PC. I just can't justify buying a 360 that will sit around as much as our Wii does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rFayjW98ciLoNQLDZmFRKD Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I went out and bought a 360 and a copy of halo 3 on Tuesday, my mother is not to happy about it :-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck waiting two and a half years (thats what happened with Halo 2, plus you had to downgrade to Vista to play it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Kitchen Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 I don't want it to sound like I hate FPS on console, because I don't. In fact, the console has something over the PC when it comes to the FPS genre. It's the party factor and barrier to entry. If I wanted to have a 4 player fragfest in my dorm doom I'd need 4 beefy computers on a LAN, where as with console it's a simple likely under $500 for the hardware, controllers, and game. Throw that on a TV, grab some beer, and pile on the couch. PC just can't touch that. Then again with a PC you can double jump off a lift with a flack cannon and get 3 kills doing a 360 before you even land on the mega damage.... ...just sayin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proskater123 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Ive ALWAYS, ALWAYS been with the console for two resones. like darren said, you don't have to spend so much money to play with others, and you don't have to upgrade every time a new generation of games come out. I remember when 1 ghz 1 moniter was "THE THING" now every one has 8 cores, GHZ up the butt and 22 moniters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
