Um... I like Halo? I don't really know what to say. I'm a student at the moment, I hope to become a criminal profiler, and I enjoy pretty much everything as long as it's good.

Yes, it's called the AAA engine and it will set your eyes on fire(In case you were wondering that's a good thing.) Oh. and to the guy below me the article read "The AAA Engine' not "A AAA Engine.

it's not.

OP, don't believe anybody who calls it "AAA engine". they're a bit slow.
it stands for "triple A grade engine, as in ultra high quality".....

Probably. I truly hope so. Then those little CoD B*tches will have absolutely nothing at all on us. WE CAN FINALLY RULE THE WORLD!!!

CoD is gray, muddy and realistic.
halo is colored, cartoonish and exaggerated. and COLORED. so no, CoD will still be more gray, muddy and realistic looking.

it'll look a lot better than halo 3 (which isn't hard in the first place), that's all I can tell.

That's not an excuse. A game's art style can be different and the graphics could be considerably worse on one than the other. The amount of detail and all that other crap can be extremely higher in one of the games.

CoD is supposed to look like that since it's about the real world, but if some of that could be in halo to make the unalien enviroments look cooler that would be pretty cool

ClosedJohn117, you've been to school right? you've had tests, which were given A, B, C, D etc, right? you do know that AAA is made of 3 times the letter A, and A means "good", right?

AAA engine is NOT a name.
the article called it "the AAA engine" as a figure of speech. it's NOT it's official name. it stands for high quality.
they said that instead of using the long boring "new unnamed high quality engine" phrase.

  • 09.29.2009 6:32 PM PDT

Snakie Purple.

"Hamdog, Hamdog, Hamdog, Hamdog"-Hamdog.

Twatter

Yup.

Here's hoping it can compete with the engine Rage is using...My god that would be AWWESOME.

Please stop being a patronozing A-hole. Get to the point or don't make one at all.

The game's engine has as good a chance of being called "The AAA Engine" or "Pimps at Sea Engine" or any other name for that matter and since that's all we have to go on I stick with what's known so far.

insults show you have no arguments left. you lost with no honor, little tree bird.

also, I HIGHLY recommend you not to take EVERYTHING YOU READ literally. figures of speech, ways of talking and such doesn't make things real..... if you read "it's raining cats and dogs"... you know it's not whats happening, right?

AAA engine isn't even an engine name. it'd make as much sense as calling a car AAAcar or a dog breed AAA dog.

i seriously hope they lower the saturation and contrast of everything down a couple notches, although not too much because for me, thats what halo has alway been about.

i want the scenery to get overhauled, when up close, the foliage looks all 2D and weird, kinda distracts me when i hide in bushes while sniping.

halo never did have hiding places so no one could see you (except in glitches) ,it was always open space

Well since there is absolutely no other information I will continue to go with that. As soon as the official engine is named I will call it that.

Yes it would make as much sense calling anything of high quality AAA(Insert whatever here) but stranger things have happened.

On to my final point. I did not call you a patronizing a-hole because I no longer had an argument. I called you a patronizing a-hole because you were treating me as though I were a second grader. I have found that if you argue with someone who looks down on you, they have shut their mind off so hard that no amount of explaining will help you see my point.

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

@Closed John117,
You claimed the name was AAA, a mistake made by people (usually young) who have little to no understanding of game engines. Your first post gave Zorgy these assumptions that he made about you. Now reverse the situation, I'm sure many of us would have made these same assumptions based on your first post. Just make sure you don't take everything on the Internet for fact.

If it's called 'THE AAA Engine" in the article, notice the big emphasis on the "THE" then it means it might very well be called 'THE AAA Engine"

You guys think it will be as good as this???

I no the vid is fake, but it sure looks good....

Or "the" could mean:
a marketing ploy making it seem like it is the best AAA engine.
It could mean the specific AAA engine made by Bungie that those people are talking about.

Also consider the name AAA merely describes something excellent, so why are you making baseless claims? Calling it The AAA Engine makes you look foolish and undermines your arguments. We don't know the name, so why give it one?

Well, I have as much a right to speculate as you do.
