    If wonder if the Halo 3 expansion will be Hard-Drive exclusive. I remember when I first bought my Arcade 360 and saw the "Optimized for Hard-Drive" note on the back of the game. :lol:

    Understatement of the decade. First no online co-op, then they took away game types that were originally available to everyone instead of adding new one for new maps, and now they might actually be adding some decent plot into the single player campaign. (Yes, I'm still a bit bitter. Sorry. :P)

    Uh, Halo 3 has online co-op. And nearly every 360 game is 'hard drive optimized', doesn't mean anything (and doesn't affect Halo 3 play at all).

    The only gametype we lost was Neutral Flag and 4 Bomb/4 Flag.
    I'm talking about the Arcade units. Several gametypes were suddenly unavailable if you couldn't download even the free maps (which they added to the old gametypes that were originally available), and a hard drive is required for online co-op for some strange reason. Basically, they pulled the rug out from under Arcade unit owners. I understood that I would be unable to play the new maps, but having modes taken away and not having any on-line co-op were surprises for me, and I follow game news pretty closely.

    I don't mean to turn this into a bitch fest, though. I'm mostly just joking at how ridiculous the "Optimized for Hard Drive" label is on the back of the box at this point, what with an expansion coming up too.

    It was thoroughly mediocre, and the online was crap. Halo has much better multiplayer.


    I'm just bitter my brother stopped playing Halo with me to play that game with his school friends.

    Just watched the trailer. The game looks pretty sweet; the stealth aspect should be pretty interesting.

    Well between Halo 3 and Cod4 I liked Crysis more too.... wait....:P


    And specifically with respect to how the actually game mechanics work, CoD4 plays about as perfectly as I have seen in recent years, a couple nods towards it by Bungie could definitely produce to perfect multiplayer experience as far as I am concerned.

    I honestly want the campaign to be fun and add some story, I want it to be linear. For non-linear I will have FarCry2 and Stalker:CS

    Maybe you magically know, but we don't know all their projects as of yet. They aren't obligated to make Halo games anymore, or did people forget that Bungie isn't apart of MS anymore?

    Apparently they are still a part of microsoft, as the comic quite clearly state that Bungie is in hell; and we all know that Bill Gates is the devil.

    I've been shopping for 360 games many times, but every time I'm in a position to buy a videogame, I'll usually end up picking up a Wii game or a DS game over a 360 game because I can never find anything that interests me enough.

    I'd hate this to be a system wars lol talk, but the Wii doesn't really have much games I want for it, especially this Fall. Not one game.

    For the breadwinner of this gen, it still feels like I own a gamecube what with the lack of games.

    1) you can still play local co-op.

    2) oh, you mean playlists.. There's still no-DLC playlists - Rumble Pit, Lone Wolves, Social Slayer and Social Objective. Team SWAT came out after Legendary, MLG is crap and nobody plays it anyway.

    Kinda sucks that the comments from the guys on Tekken 6 in the Gamespot article on that said that there are gonna be alot of issues in porting it to the 360, since the game was based on PS3 hardware to begin with combined with the storage situation. Hopefully it will not affect the game, I'd like to see the 360 version be just as good as the PS3 one.

    Ill probably still end up getting the PS3 version to be safe though.

    VF5 was supposedly made just for the PS3 and look how that turned out. Shouldn't have to worry really. Of course, they may not have as good of a team as SEGA though, but it can be done well if they at least try.

    I like how Bungie narrated themselves into a corner with the ending of Halo 3 so that there was nowhere to go other than prologue.

    Also, the Tekken announcement would have interested me if Tekken had been anything other than crap for the last 3 versions.

    They did that intentionally. They even talked about how when they originally presented the game to MS, they made it look very much like the Chief was going to be killed off outright. And didn't reveal the real story until much later.
