MAJOR POINT::::: halo is too CARTOONY. all these nubs think halo is some kind of black military game. its not. all the aliens are bright colours, too happy. black military game like FEAR, QUAKE and DOOM, and even to a certain extent Half Life 2 all feature much more darker gameplay, and i would like to see some of that ported over to halo 3.

meh, I'd say keep it the way it is with the covenant, but the flood, make the game darkish you could say. With the flood, make it scary !

1) halo is Halo, not Doom, Quake or FEAR.
2) Halo isn't a black military game, it's a futuristic first person shooter.
3) Doom doesn't have a dark gameplay it has a crappy gameplay.
4) Don't use a word such as noob (or some other form), since it can get you banned.
5) Halo 3 is supposed to be a lot darker than the previous two games.
So I'll guess we'll just have to waitand see. i agree to an extent though. I hope the ggame will indeed be darker, but not at the cost of the "halo feel".

I remember the time I was kidnapped and they sent a piece of my finger to my father. He said he wanted more proof.

Its style has been working for the series so far. It does not need to imitate the style of other games. Cartoony, halo it is not.

While at the same time attracting the whiny little brats that act like Halo should be Doom.

Let me guess, you are 15.

I'd die to become immortal,
That's why I play Halo Reach

I'll keep this simple

I originally liked Halo because it was different to all those other games that were out there where all it was was mindless slaughtering and gory destruction. I love that about the entire storyline and all the gameplay etc. Halo was a great game, and Halo 2 was even better. Halo 3 should carry on the solidarity of the first two.

Too cartoony?

You obviously don't watch enough cartoons.

From what i've seen in the trailer, The Halo 3 storyline seems like one that will focus a lot on the plot, but will include a lot of events in the actual gameplay. This is another feature i enjoy about the other Halo games. Bungie's ability to work key events into actual gameplay so cinematics don't become an hour long between gameplay.

Now, i've heard about Halo 3 being "Darker" than the first games. well, i certainly would enjoy a bit of darkness to hide behind. Is this darkness because of the Covenant Vicory or is it because of some other really bad event taking place (maybe someone dying)? nobody knows for sure yet. i sure would like to see things get a bit darker, but for the light to break through eventually.

Now i definitely do not want to see any of Half-life or Doom or any of that crap put any where near the making of Halo 3. now i know i can trust Bungie there.

Halo 3 darker? well, we already "know" that it will be slightly darker than its predecessors. Making it as dark as some of those other games that are out just doesn't sound like a winning move for one of the most creative and ingenious companies on the planet.

I think we can all safely say that we trust Bungie with Halo 3 and that if they screw it up...

Well, let's just hope they don't screw it up.



Like i said earlier... Keeping it simple.
