Post by: Heironymus on September 26, 2007, 01:11:01 am
Soo.... I just beat Halo 3 on Normal... i don't know if there are alt endings for beating it at harder difficulty or not but I am rather bothered by the ending... I would really like to discuss but am unaware if anyone else has beaten it yet. Let me know.

We (my four roomies and I) bought 4 copies at midnight. I have YET to play campaign because we've invited all our friends for a week long Halo party (theatre work limits my time, but oh well) We stole two projectors from work and we have a 50" plasma tv....... life rocks. If ya'll play online, I play as Ibetchuwontdoit's guest. :) Look me up, I'm the noob getting maybe 6 or 7 kills max :)

I got a few test shots of one of my melee kills on a good friend of mine...

I head the plot was really weak, but the action sort-of made up for it.

hmm...don't own a 360...but I heard Halo III is nice...
Is it really much different from 2?
Title: Re: Halo 3
Post by: Fuse on September 27, 2007, 12:56:24 am
There are a couple very cool parts, but the story is "eh". The action does kick ass. I beat it today on 4 player co-op Legacy. Now I just need to go back and beat the first 7 chapters on Legacy because I had only done those on heroic...
The part with 2 spiders....fucking awesome with 4 player co-op and the flying things you get.

It takes a bit for it to be sent to your website profile. it took mine a day or so.
did you figure out how to add things to file share? You need to add something to file share before your screens will go up, as well....

I'll play Halo 3 in a year or so :( when its out for pc. If I were to buy an xbox 360 it would be just for this game no other reason. But what a waste that would be.

horribly n00b question but how do u talk with the mic while you're in the matchmaking area with other players?
Title: Halo 3
Post by: Fuse on October 02, 2007, 12:52:06 pm
Turn it on... Really, that's it. Then talk.
Title: Halo 3
Post by: Anonymous on October 02, 2007, 02:12:41 pm
You just talk normal through the mic. but if it is a team battle and there are more than 4 people in your team you must press the up button on the D- pad to speak
Title: Halo 3
Post by: Fuse on October 02, 2007, 03:09:05 pm
It doesn't have to be the up button, just press any button on the D pad. This is helpful to know after you die and want to say where as the up and down buttons change what player you select on the score screen-so hit left or right to talk.

cool back into cryogenic status... nice.. I hope they make another one based 50 or so years more in the future. That would be sweet :)

I'm sorry, the pictures look cool and everything, but after watching Red vs Blue religeously, I just cannot take the game seriously. (not that I ever could anyway.) I've tried. My son is a huge Halo fan, but from what I'm seeing and hearing, this version is just a polished up, over-hyped rehash of the same ol' same ol.
Tell me if I'm wrong please.

Which part did you miss cause i played it on normal and that was the whole ending i got.
Title: Halo 3
Post by: Pirus on October 04, 2007, 06:04:50 am
yeah I heard if you play it on legendary you get a different ending... atleast somethings are changed.

It's the same but it shows the ship heading for a planet.

now in the legend one, when the ship is floating, doesnt a Halo begin to glow as if it's ready to destroy the ship? thats what it looked like to me
Title: Halo 3
Post by: Fuse on October 09, 2007, 08:46:53 am
yes, you are right, but as cortana explains after the credits, thier ship jumps through a warphole, warp speed, or whatever the hell she calls it... only half of the ship got through though.

People just need to relize it is a MP game not a SP game. It was meant to finish the Master Cheif Arc and leave it open ended.
I don't understand why people cry and bash thing when we were told MANY times what to expect from the game.

Regardless of what we're told, its just part of the hype to leave out things that people might not find attractive about a product....its part of the hype. People (as intended) get suckec into the hype and end up being disappointed, but MWAHAHA! They've already spent their money. Too bad suckers!!

Just a quick note for those of you on xbox live. Be sure to leave positive feedback for your fellow angels.
Also, my personal Halo 3 ratings: Graphics: 8 Sound: 10 Story: 9 Gameplay: 7 Replay Value: 6 Overall Rating: 8

Post by: Sared on October 22, 2007, 10:50:38 am
Halo 3 takes a dip in graphics because in all honesty, the architecture is just more and more of the same that we've seen before. 'specially once you go back to #3. Halo 2 had more interesting setups when you were on Earth, and that gave it a kick of originality. Oh, and some developers should not be allowed to use bloom. Period. Look at a Half-Life 2's dynamic lighting system (as opposed to NEVER using bloom). Bungie could have learned a lot from that, and now that we're seeing a third installment of this run-of-the-mill crap then I don't expect to be looking up to them as an example of good design.

See? Never fall for the hype.
I really don't care much about graphics being "bleeding edge' I much prefer developers concentrate on gameplay and replayability.......like TF2. I'd recommend that game to ANYONE long before Halo 3.
