My sarcasm detectors were off at the moment then. =\

EDIT: Wait what? Nevermind, I'm confused. My statement still stands, sarcasm or not.

is not your fault, it's my bad grammar o_o

back to halo 3, finally tomorrow i'm going to a friends house to play it, and i'm actually happy that the game is short, that way i can just finish tomorrow and don't have to wait for next week (we are still trying to finish tales of symphonia together and we bought it at the beginning of school)

tsugomaru your statement indeed still stands, however squeek tends to say things like "it's a horrible game" instead of the good non-bothering "i didn't like this game"

Re: Halo 3

I consider a game good when I find it generally worth spending time to play. If I don't think it's worth spending time on, it's a bad game. A game's worth is the sum total of all its qualities, both good and bad -- so liking/disliking one aspect won't make or break the game unless it's significant enough to carry heavy weight.

If he wants to deem the game "bad" because of the controls, he has every right to because he may place high importance on controls. You may not. This doesn't mean he's ignoring the fact that other aspects of the game are good. He is saying that he was let down in an area where he placed great importance in determining this game's worth.

Re: Halo 3

Red Steel was supposed to be the showcase title for Wii controls. It let a lot of people down.

Fortunately, Elebits came along shortly after to show people how it could be done.

I buy games based on their biggest selling points. These tend to be very broad. For example, I bought Devil May Cry 3 because I wanted a challenging game. That's exactly what I got. I bought God of War for a quick & fun hack n' slash. That's exactly what I got. I buy RPGs for their stories and I don't tend to be disappointed there.

It's rare that the primary reason I buy a game is also a let-me-down, but it happens. The gameplay in Odin Sphere is its selling point. The story comes second. Both disappointed me. It's a fun game, but I just can't see myself playing any more of it and I'm not even a third of the way through. Kingdom Hearts is another example. The gameplay is great, but the story is so pathetic that you want to rip your eyes out. The story of the first one wasn't bad and left me wanting more at the end, but they ruined it in the sequel. They also ruined the gameplay in the sequel by allowing victory solely by pressing X over and over again, then occasionally hitting triangle.

I carry this over to everything. I'm even more critical with anime. Inuyasha is one of the worst shows everm made solely because of its ending. Of course, the repetitive and unending plot helped make me hate it more. Naruto sucks because, again, the plot never changes. The story doesn't advance. Bleach is starting to suck for the exact same reason. I do it with music too. Emo music is all the same thing and has nothing worth listening to. It's some horrible singer ranting about how his life sucks and he wants to die. Bawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Rap is just some wannabe-gangsters who have nothing better to talk about than life experiences from someone else's life. They have no musical talent whatsoever.

Everyone buys a game for a specific purpose, and every game is different. People clearly buy the Halo games for their multiplayer experience. You'll find some who don't, obviously, as there aren't 9.2 million people playing Halo 2 online and never were. Take Unreal Tournament. The most multiplayer game ever made. The single player is just a bunch of random matches thrown together against bots. And yet, I love this game. I don't play it online against other people. It's just a phenomenal shooter. I bought it for its quick action and intense gameplay, not its online experience. I'm in the minority there, but it goes to show that different people have different reasons for liking or not liking games.

Re: Halo 3

I mean the not to be mean but bungie kinda messed up the ending leaving ppl thinking tht there would be a halo 4 because it ends with mastercheif being alive in half a ship with cortana in space in the middle of nowhere and he feel asleep in the cryo tube saying wake me when u need me i mean what kinda ending is tht if u ask me i would have put an ending with master chief either dieing or bringing him back to earth safely saying the war was over but no!! and also the covenent they said tht let's go back home to see if their world is ok doesnt tht clearly ring a bell right there like uh oh war isnt over halo 4! well if u ask me they need to make halo 4 and finish the game for real in a proper way or make a game about how the war started when master chief was with the spartans fighting if not then man halo 3 isnt wat i expected it to be....

Re: Halo 3

It isn't so much that there is a Halo 4. It's allowing an opening for other things, imo.

It's a trilogy. Deal with it.
But I was very unsure about what happened in that little extra bit you get after beating it on legendary...... Uhhhh what is that?
I don't want to give anything away to the people that haven't seen it yet though.

Re: Halo 3

So my friend got it today and it was exactly what I expected. Long repetitive levels and my friends are too noob to play multilayer. We played one round and it's the exact same as halo 2...good but not great.

Re: Halo 3

squeek's been using the most ridiculous and irrelevant statistics I've ever seen from an well educated person. i'd expect the average FFR forum retard to bring up that 0.1% of the population owns halo and try to prove a point by saying that 99.9% of the people in this world don't... but not from someone like squeek. come on man... you didn't bother responding to my thing earlier

and it's pretty obvious by this point that you think halo 3 is a bad game. you said you didn't like the single player experience, and you said earlier that you hate all multiplayer games in general, so you didn't play multiplayer. so based on what you'd played you think halo 3 is a bad game. that's fine, but don't try to appease people by saying it's not a bad game just to avoid being labeled a troll.

that being said i don't have a clue what your agenda in this thread is. you still haven't answered that question from what i've read

Re: Halo 3

I bet you don't know this!
There is a really cool glitch I found by MYSELF while playing in "The Forge"

If you got to scenery and choose the gravity lift, and place it on a flat piece of ground so it stands straight, shooting its gravity pulse upward, then get an object (a receiver teleporter works the best for me). Then you put it on top of the gravity lift, at just the right position, so it does not have a high bounce, then after messing around with it it will eventually stop bouncing all together. This will allow you to remove the gravity lift and there will now be a floating receiver teleporter. Then add a gravity lift on top of the receiver teleporter (the pulses should be pointing together). Then add another receiver teleporter on top of the gravity lift, and as done before make it stop bouncing. Then remove the lift and the bottom receiver teleporter. You are left with a receiver teleporter even higher in the sky. Now lets say you wanted the object that was in the sky to be a turret. Then you would add the gravity lift to the receiver teleporter (that is in the air) as done before. Then place the turret above the lift at the right position as done before so it stops bouncing. Then you have a usuable turret in the sky. So in my Sandtrap Forge called SANDOFU, I have a turret 5+ master chiefs (tall) floating above the rock platforms up at the (should be) highest part of the level.

It is awesome. And this post is long. Coulda been shorter but I repeted myself allot for the 50- IQ people here.

Re: Halo 3

Wait so what exactly is he doing?

[tofurox]

Re: Halo 3

Sitting inside a turret up in the sky as high as possible. It is great to shoot flying things from up high, and its fun.

Another thing I did the same thing with respawn points. So like up there you could respawn at the top of the level and fall down to the highest rocks. If you know where I mean in Sandtrap.

It is very hard to make vechiles float, and I think it is impossible cause I cannot do it, and it never seems to work.

Elephants are fun....!!!! *drools*

Rubix my FFR Overall Rank is better than yours now. I am 551 and you are 552!

Now... I gotta Cash Cow to AAA (or get close to a AAA cause I like Very Difficult songs better).

Reasons for editing....
