Subject: Few care about H2V anymore...

Let there be CHAOS!

Well, Crysis looks good, shadowrun sounds good, Quake Wars will probably be good.

Halo 3 however IS good :D

Who here chose Halo 3?

I choose Halo 3. It's halo, c'mon.

If it wasn't on the list of choices, I would choose Crysis, hands down.

I'm not going to lie: Halo is one of the most over-rated, over-hyped franchises I've ever seen.

But hey, it is Halo 3...

That would be nothing compared to Half-Life 3, however. Or Crysis 2. :)

You insult the main theme and purpose of this forums (the Halo series), way too much. Like I said. WHY. YOU. HERE.

And FYI, I chose Halo3. I'd rather play it then gai-sys, because I'm interested in how the entire story's going to turn out. All you people who care so much about Crysis, only care about the "0mfg dx10 gfx ftw!!!!!!!!11one". Is it ONLY about GRAPHICS nowadays? I'd rather play a good, fun game, with good enough graphics to still please my eyes, than play something totally random, with pixel shader 500.0 gfx.

Just because Halo is over-rated doesn't mean it isn't good, or that it isn't fun.

Wow, you completely missed the point of this. You fail to realize that Crysis will not only offer jaw-dropping visuals, but great and innovative gameplay, realistic physics and a gripping storyline. Don't you dare tell us that we value graphics over game play.

I laugh at how many people seem to care about Halo 3 only because of it's graphics, which aren't that amazing to begin with.

I'm not sure if our PCs are even powerful enough to run that video!

No, but seriously. We care about Crysis' visuals, yes we do--it's only about the best looking game people have ever seen. But it's not just highly anticipated because of it's graphics. Nano suit? Aliens? Multiplayer? Map editor? A kickass engine?

If that wasn't aimed at me, I do too.

If that WAS aimed at me, note that I don't even mind how "beautiful" the graphics are in H3, not to mention I hate consoles.

And about Crysis, just so you all get the grip on truth, all you Crysis fanatics talk about, is the glorious dx10 gfx of Crysis. I have never heard a single PEEP from these people, about storyline, gameplay, etc. (don't get me wrong, I think Crysis has an interesting plot, and cool physics and gameplay). It's being way too overrated MERELY from the graphics of it.

Crysis uses Havok, so does every other FPS out there.

Innovative Gameplay? There is nothing new in Crysis. All its gameplay is based off of Farcry and pieces of Splinter Cell.

Gripping Storyline? Are you saying that Halo's storyline ISN'T???!

No trust me. Crysis's PURPOSE is to be a graphical showcase for DX10. The Developers said it. The publisher said it. Microsoft said it. It is fact.

Does that make Crysis a bad game? HELLLLLL NO. It just shows that it values Graphics over gameplay.

I think "overrated" is the wrong term for this, considering the game isn't even out yet. Rather, Crysis is highly anticipated--trust me, they're two different things.

Yeah, but how many other first-person shooters use the CryENGINE2?

Exactly.

Let's ignore the destructible environments and vegetation, location-specific vehicle damage, the ability to jump from building to building with a switch in the nano suit, and amazing artificial intelligence which can alter the gameplay significantly.

Gripping Storyline? Are you saying that Halo's storyline ISN'T???!
No, of course not. It's just not very original or as interesting as I'd find something like Half-Life 2's.

That doesn't mean it can't be a kickass game in the process.

Highly realistic Location Specific Vehicle damage
Almost entirely Destructable Environments
Ability to jump from building to building
All purpose Power-Redirectable suit
Amazing A.I.


LOL, OWNED. Nice.

Those are five different games. Last time I checked Crysis is only one.

In this day and age, what is original? What could be better then adding a whole bunch of original ideas into one? Is that such a bad idea? FEAR borrows a lot from other FPS games and I still consider it to be one of the best. The whole "roots" argument and hate is so overrated. I would expect that argument from Lord of the Rings Online fan boys and when they are on the receiving end of complaints that the game is a World of Warcraft clone.

Why don't you just take everything off that poll except crysis? I'm surprised more people said Halo 3, but w/e, people have their own opinion.

Heres the PEEP from a person I think Crysis DOES have an awsome plot, AND Graphics, and heres my opinion about the "top" games Crysis>Shadowrun>C&C>halo series.

1. More people have XBOX 360's than rigs with 8800 GTX's.
2. This is the PC forum. If I posted this in the Halo 2\3 Forum, imagine how many votes Crysis would get compared to Halo 3. =D
3. More people have played the Halo franchise than any of the FarCry games.
4. As I already said, Crysis is all graphics. Well, 90% Graphics.
