I was taking a stroll, and chose to pick up the latest issue of xbn at shoppers drug mart. Besides the word 'Halo' being mentioned on ever page it was offensive. They took a poll, and the most wanted game was halo 2. They said whoever could have imagined some guy in a suit with a dumb name like master chief would have topped thier list. i went berserk. they hardly mentioned halo 2's (i call halo 2 h2o) great graphics. they went on to anounce bungie developers were better at keeping their fans in suspense than actually developing games. Bungie has given us as much info as possible on h2o without losing profits and major aspects of the game. if jason jones is reading this i strongly suggest going to XBN HQ and opening a can of whoopass on them. two letters= F U . opinions people

I was reading it as well and i cant believe they said that. Also on an issue of OPM (Official playstation Magazine) It had a cover of Killzone. to quote, they ACTULLY SAID, " Goodbye Halo" I said, "No" and i never bought a cpoy of OPM again...

The last man on Earth sat in a room, there came a knock at the door.

Service Record

That's why I get PSM (Playstation Magazine). They said that HALO, at 2 years old, was still better than any recent FPS on any console.

Every game genre has there flagship game. Of corse if someones coming out with a FPS there gonna try and compare it to the current reigning champ. It happens with most games that are the best in there genres. Take the Gran Tursimo series for expample. Microsoft marketing is pushing there new racing game Forza as a Gran Truismo killer, just becuse GT is the benchmark for racing games. In reality it takes time for other game creators to try and eclpise the flagship games in each genre, such as Halo for FPS and the Gran Turismo series for Driving sims.

BTW, console-wise, nothing can beat Halo for its graphics and gameplay.
Also, XBN would say that cus there just as pissed at Halo 2 beign delayed as every Halo fan is, theyre jst able to print there opinion for everyone to see.

Good thing I don't touch that mag. I probably sound really dumb saying this, but I'm not familiar with XBN, much less know what it stands for. The writers shouldn't be killed or damned to hell, but I know a suitable punishment for their folly... which involves bananas, ICY HOT, and oh yes... screaming.

It stands for Xbox Nation (XBN). I don't subscribe to their mag, OXM is the way to go.

You know what? I don't give a -blam!- what they say. If they say that Halo 2 or Halo suck, then they obviously suck monkey balls. I never read their -blam!--ass piece of -blam!- mag anyway cause they never know what the hell they're talking about. Saying Halo 2 is going to suck is like saying a you can't get run over by a train if you stand on the tracks.
