His reason is "I don't like the game", he doesn't need to back it up. Granted the way he's going about this is bullheaded.

Yeah, he doesn't back it up and and probably has never played it once. Granted, Halo sucks until you are playing well and not getting teabagged for being shit.

bought burnout paradise today ( couldnt help it )

One of the many reasons I wanna get a PS3 eventually.
Getting Fallout3 today.

its not only for ps3, also xbox yoooooo

 

[DarkBliss]

I know that. I want the PS3 for its wider variety of quality titles and the back compatibility for the PS2(since I own one).

I've played it before and didn't suck. Not my cup of tea. But I would definitely call it overrated.

Be sure to carefully research the various PS3 models before buying one. Not all of them are fully backward compatible and some aren't backward compatible at all.

Yeah, I heard they nixed that and thought "that's pretty retarded"

I have played the first one through entirely, and played snippets of 2. Also, I've already given my damn reasons in another thread, but since you're too retarded to recall that, I'll list them again. Pathetic console-centric interface/gameplay, derivative story, annoying mechanics, unintelligent design. I could list even more, but I think you get the point.

 

[waif]

I have to agree with every one of those.

given that it's an rpg it's understandable that weapon accuracy is variable.

Add to that the wasteland. Those guns shouldn't be expected to function very well over time, especially since they've basically been ripped apart and put back together with different parts a few hundred times.

On Oblivion: Oblivion was an excellent game, but on the immersion front did not live up to the hype (like anything could have). Morrowind had more stuff to do, and a better feel; Oblivion felt cartoony and happy while morrowind felt like more sorta grim fantasy. But also happy giant mushroom fantasy. At the same time.

Of course, both games had ugly characters, shitty dialogue, and lifeless voice acting.

It's fine as a multiplayer game, but the singleplayer is completely mediocre. There's just nothing in the game that makes you care about the environment or the characters in it. All you do is proceed from point A to point B to point C and kill everything along the way.

 

[Matt]

Well that's the point of Halo! You play the campaign just to get the gamer points.

Not the king guy in Oblivion, he was voiced by Patrick Stewart, who obviously did a really awesome job.

Right, I just figured the distinction needed to be made for this argument.

Okay. I wouldn't really know since I've only watched other people play it and haven't played it myself, but in general I'd assume my claim is still true.

 

[waif]

Uh...yeah. Except that the dialogue was fine in morrowind and there was no voice acting.
And I don't play games to look at pretty characters.

Well that's the point of Halo! You play the campaign just to get the gamer points.

Well, I played the multiplayer and it sucked. So I guess "not sucking" means being able to nail headshots from across the map while jumping zoomed in on the sniper rifle.

 

[panzerfaust666]

I have had Fallout 3 for three days now without having played it yet, i'm strong lol.
A friend of mine says it's awesome but complained that your weapons dont hit that accurate if you're not very close, anyone heard this?

it is awesome, and a little hard for me because im not a very good gamer lol. But yeah, the combat is slightly lacking in general imo

Isn't that every 1st person shooter?
Halo may be overrated, but the original is still a great game.

 

[Vimana]

No.

 

[seedofvengeance]

Name one where it's not just point A to point B while killing everything along the way.
Half-Life is the only series I can think of, and it's still mostly in that mold.
