Disappointing endings always allow for shittier sequels.



Let's hear it for halo 3 guys.




******** SPOILER ALERT ********

That is exactly how Halo2 ends, at the start of... Halo3?

			These are all LOD (Level Of Detail) issues. Because of the abuse of Normal Mapping and the great lightning this game has, there are a lot of texture and model pop-ups. Still, the level of optimization for this game is really incredible.


Sounds kind of like Soul Reaver on PSX, though it's probably not as bad... in SR you could round corners and watch the geometry right next to your character deform. <_<

6. 16 bit color (nativly the xbox runs in 32bit color, but to get optimal performance in Halo 2 using the new lighting engin Bugie seems to have forced the system to render everything in 16 bit color instead)

What?

I was at GameStop playing RE4 some more yesterday, and I noticed Halo 2 running on the 'Box kiosk in the back of the store. I was floored by the graphics.



Or maybe it was just running at a high resolution?



Meh, I might play it tomorrow, when I go back for more RE4.

Just curious, how many of you play UT2004? And for those that do, would you say Halo has superior multiplayer?




[post=123392]Quoted post[/post]

I think that depends largely on who/where and what mode. I had an absolute blast playing hour after hour of UT2004 at a LAN late summer. Particularly fun were the two new modes, but you wouldn't believe how much fun a couple of matches of drunken Invasion can be. "Run! No, the other way!"

Damn right!

I've been in there so much this week playing, I'll most likely get banned from the store if I continue.



Maybe if I buy something...

lol.. Its times like that when I am glad I work for lamestop...

Well, I just got done playing some Halo 2 single-player, and I must say, I'm impressed.

I like it much more than the original. I was very skeptical about the dual weapons deal, but it works wonders.

The graphics didn't look that much different, if at all. The music is absolutely FANTASTIC!

It's still pretty overrated, but I've enjoyed what I've played so far.

They are different, and a lot better than the BioHazard4 graphics.

Haha. So?

Biohazard 4 is still the better game.

What systems is biohazard out on.

Rolf do you play online at all>? Let me know the MP modes are phenominal..

 Cloud121 Nov 13, 2004
Well, how's Halo 2?

No, I don't play online.

I don't own an XBox, and I hate playing FPS' multiplayer.

I bet you a ton of kids skip school to stay home and play Halo 2. A boy and his family did that at my school did and he completed it in 8 hours.

I only know one person that skipped school to play this game. Metal Gear Solid 3 comes out this week, I will have a nasty case of the flu that day.
