" Yeah, and God of War 3 is a rehash of 1 & 2, Halo ODST is just Halo without Master Chief, Final Fantasy XIII and XIV are just XII-2 and XI-2 respectively, MGS is, well, MGS, etc, etc, amirite? No. Neither are you.

@AgentJ there's a video of that too. "

" I am utterly shocked this hasn't been locked yet. You guys are arguing about a video game franchise over the internet. Seriously people, grow up. "

" I love the "this game is balanced" argument. You guys are fully aware that the more bland and simple a game is, the easier it is to make it balanced right? Go ask the Street Fighter devs. Adding more to a game makes it more fun and more awesome yes, but balancing becomes more and more difficult.Someone here cited the "smg can't take on the BR from across the map", obviously implying that this is good game design. Sure it is...but it's very simplistic balancing. If anyone fucked that up their game wouldn't even get published. Talk to Valve about game balance in their shooters. TF2 has 9 classes (may have miscounted, haven't played in a couple months) each with over 3 weapons. They are constantly updating and changing the gameplay mechanics as a result of this because the game balance has to constantly be adjusted. Now THAT is a game that I am impressed by as far as balancing is concerned. Most games with that much choice as far as a weapons and character profiles go usually crash and burn. Counter Strike is another example of extremely well done game balancing.I think people can't deal with the fact that most of the people that love Halo, don't love it for it's technical aspects (game balance, map symmetry, graphics etc.) but rather for just the fun factor with it's split screen or playing with friends...sitting on a couch next to someone you're about to sneak up behind and stab in the back is grand fun. Admittedly it has gotten less fun in the last 5 years since Halo hasn't really evolved while other games have come out to challenge it and have been quite successful at stealing it's thunder. The Call of Duty and Gears of War series first come to mind.No ones saying Halo isn't a quality product. It very much is, but it's much like a good product that hasn't been innovated since it first came out and it's become stale. No ones stopping you from loving it...they're just pointing out the stupidity in the statement, "HALO IS THE BEST FPS EVAR." "

So stale it's been top played Xbox live game with a population that's been growing steadily UPWARDS fro about 6 months now... I think you can;t deal with the fact that most people love halo, because the competitive multiplayer is just brilliantly done. Just pointing out, the most common rank in halo 3 at the moment is brigadier grade 2 - That means over 1000 wins and a highest skill of 45. which means that said player has probably player around 2000 or more games of halo 3 and a lot of these at a competitive level. Next is the general grade 2. Again, 1000 exp, but this time a highest skill of 50. In fact, there are MORe players with over 1000 games played than players who dont. You see, this is the problem with you halo trolls, you mouth off a lot but in the end all you produce is a load of waffle. "

"@crunchUK: Well go you. *shrug*If you think it's that well balanced then continue to play, makes no difference to me. I just stated my opinion and it's just that, an opinion. "
