So now I will share my views in hard text with those that read my blog.
My take on Halo 3 beta is this...and this simply. Its Halo 2 with some new polish and features. Its next years model. Basically the same style..just updated a little, with a new airbag and 2 extra cup holders.
Now that I've pissed off 95% of the site...let me say this. I know its an unfinished beta. So don't bother saying that. I know what Beta means when it involves video games. I'm not just cracking on the graphics.
Although it is a good game...if you've played Halo 2 and have gotten bored with it like I did a few months ago....then the multiplayer in Halo 3 will do nothing more than hold your interest for a couple of weeks.
I've played it a bit and I'm already kinda bored with it.
There are some great additions to the game. The new equipment types, weapons and vehicles they show in the beta are awesome and fun to use. But overall once you've used them in a few creative ways then you've used them...and thats all its gonna be.
It adds an interesting element to the game. But if you've played CTF in Halo 2...thats almost exactly how it is in Halo 3. Except for the new additions of course.
Graphically the game does look damn good. Its not overall that it catches your eye...its in all the little details that you see in the maps. Grass swaying, the water moving...the particle effects...etc...
The new gametype VIP that I played was pretty fun and Im sure when the game drops I'll be playing alot of variations of that. But the campaign is probably whats gonna hold my interest longest...because no one knows anything about it.
I also have to say that the new control adjustments take a little getting used to...but once you do, they are pretty sweet.
I will be picking up Halo 3 along with eveyone else on the site who is. But Halo 3 will not be the game that holds my interest like Halo 2 did.
Thats my opinion and Im sticking with it.
