[QUOTE=imasillypiggys;25047344]like i said not worth arguing over but whatever i will anyway i guess besides the [B]realistic and deep characters[/B], the mystery of the game (i think this mite be why you think its not good because it doesnt tell you everything and you have to figure it out later) the original environment and the great way they have you see the story through the eyes of the hero i guess it does kinda suck[/QUOTE] Yes, because a theoretical physicist with no military experience taking on alien dictators is so realistic :downs:
I agree, calling the characters realistic/deep is, put bluntly, quite dumb. If Halo has realistic/deep characters, I have no acne.

you don't know that because gordon freeman has no back story at all the only knowledge any one has about him is that he went to MIT
i really like halo but there are many alien invasion videogames and i would admit that halo is alot deeper then most alien invasion games its just that there is alot of it and ps half life is original cause not to many video games have it were you lost to an alien race and have to be rebels to fight back
Gordon is a "nerd" that fights againgst a occupation force composed of different races of aliens. He has no prior military training. Chief is a super soldier that fights againgst a army composed of different races of aliens (am I the only one seeing a connection here?) that threatens to destroy the whole of humanity. He has prior leadership and military combat training.

[QUOTE=Lord of Ears;25047661]half life is an "alien invasion game", dumbass[/QUOTE] i said that in the post if you read it, but my point was that it is after (half-life 2) after we lost
I enjoy Half-Life and Halo but when people start flames because of Halo makes no sense.
video games: unrealistic lets try and get this into our heads folks
[QUOTE=Corporal Yippie;25048284]video games: unrealistic lets try and get this into our heads folks[/QUOTE] Realistic video games would be junk.

Also, I don't care about HL ( its a joke, really ), its the fact that he/she has the audacity to actually bring realism into the argument.

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;25042244]Since 2001, The only games to be released from Bungie all involved Halo.

Everything Valve has that isn't titled Half-Life is or was the communities work before they took it(And hired the creators).
hahahaha wow look at all the dumb halflife fanboys itt
[QUOTE=Kinglah Crab;25049815]hahahaha wow look at all the dumb halflife fanboys itt[/QUOTE] its not like your any better everyone defends the things they like also without half-life there would be no facepunch
No matter how much people say how good halo is or how bad halo is it doesn't matter you're not swaying anyone's view.
[QUOTE=imasillypiggys;25050576]its not like your any better everyone defends the things they like also without half-life there would be no facepunch[/QUOTE] omg.... its because of gabe facepunch exists... hail valve best company ever!!!

It's their last game, give them a break.
It's more of a final salute to bungie's exit from halo, and its also good advertising.
I was shopping there whilst they were being painted, the video doesn't really do the murals justice. There are 3 in total, it's incredibly impressive, especially seeing how painstakingly long it seemed to take in realtime.
[QUOTE=ItsGary;25051192]It's their last game, give them a break.[/QUOTE] Last HALO game. Seriously, I'm excited to see whether or not they can still create a new series that's actually good after so many years of staying on the same thing.
Whoever dislikes Halo but can't back up their opinions are either: A. hypocritical non-conformists disliking something simply because a large group of people they don't associate with like it. B. elitists, similar to group A, only they don't conform because they feel the game appeals to an "unintelligent audience" (ie the "frat boy" archetype) C. People who don't like the Xbox. People who don't like Halo and can back up their opinions are: A. People that actually found the game not entertaining [U]after playing it[/U]. Period. That said, a game can receive a mural. That doesn't mean it is strictly better than another game. It's a kick ass mural, but whoever has implied that Halo: Reach getting a mural makes it better than another game is fucking stupid. They don't effect the substance of either piece. Just because the subject of the mural is Halo doesn't diminish the fact that it is a very accurate and impressive painting. But, I ramble. Besides, I'm sure Bungie paid these guys quite a pretty penny. I wish I could make money off of art work. Too bad I can barely draw, let alone paint.
