Sorry Sketch and everyone at Bungie. Can't vote for this game with all the bugs that somehow made it through testing. Of course we can't expect any game to be perfect and bug-free, but I'm in shock at how much made it through testing. With another week or two of testing with a REAL testing crew this could have been game of the year, but as it stands now, I just can't vote for it.

Same here except I think the game is great except the story, the story is good enough, but after being told over and over again how good the story would be, I was hoping for something like in First Strike, I had been one of those people that went to this website like 20 times a day, read every HBO article every day, bought all the bungie stuff, was around when the forums still had post counters, and the highlight of my week was friday when the weekly update came out. I ove multi player, I think its the best multi player ever, but the story just destroyed me, I just wish Jason could of had some help with Eric Nylund on campain.
I have to agree with both here... I am also one of these people who have read the books and followed the ILB storyline, and I must stay that Halo 2 was seriously below the bar when it came to its storyline, It felt rather hollowed out...
And the bugs... the main one is the graphical slow down one, which ruins a lot of the parts of the story that would have been good... One thing to say: Pre-Render.
And on the multiplayer side, most of what I hear about it is the major problem is has with cheaters and exploits. Also, Bungie did say a while back that they were working on multiplayer so that people without Live and access to a good LAN gathering would still enjoy it with just two controllers... I'm one of these people... I got skrewed big time!
One more piece of advice... If you can't fit fit Halo 3 on one DVD... Put It On Two!
