You are expressing what I think is a disturbing trend in modern videogames. Skill, balace, and level design isn't what matters, it's all about how much the enviroment is destructable, how big and loud are the explosions and the guns. Wheee! We just want eye candy, massive, pointless death and destruction, ludicrous amounts of blood, entire buildings being able to be taken down. Desensitize me! Make me not even flinch when I see a picture of a civilian being beheaded on the Washington Post for a week in row.
Please don't take the above paragraph the wrong way, I am not against all violence in games.
And no, being able to carpet bomb the map wouldn't be fun, would you like to just suddenly die on Live because you got bombed and there was nothing you could do to avoid it?
Remember Halo's grenade and rocket explosions? with the huge certical explosion with dust and stuff flying up? Well, Halo 2's explosions are nothing like that... They look more like UT2004's weak explosions. Where's the Halo explosions Bungie?!?
