The Bard Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Funnily enough, in quake 2, you can't distinguish the heads from the bodies, thus making the concept of headshots rather ineffective. Cmon, quit with the crap, Halo is awesome.
Shino Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Its fun and entertaining, but personally I don't see the reason for such following.
The Bard Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Its fun and entertaining I'd say that was reason enough.
The Lillster Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Its fun and entertaining, but personally I don't see the reason for such following. It's a Nintendo game, developed for hardcore gamers. Of course it's going to have a big following!

mcj metroid Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 If you're refering to the first game, it really isn't. If you're talking about the first halo you would be right. Honestly can't understand why people prefer the first to the second. Also halo on the pc is not a revolution It does the same thing but on the xbox it controlled lovely for a console fps.
immy Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Apart from the crappy bit where you fight those stupid aliens that blow up for ages(can't remember their name or the level), halo 1 is a classic.
Haden Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 If you're refering to the first game, it really isn't. I beg to differ I loved it and played it on the pc! But why the hell are we discussing this in a metroid thread I must have missed something. I cant wait for this game the Wii needs a game like this well I need it anyway!
Hero-of-Time Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Apart from the crappy bit where you fight those stupid aliens that blow up for ages(can't remember their name or the level), halo 1 is a classic. They are called The Flood and the level is called The Library and yes that is probably the most annoying part of the game. Im calling an October release date on Metroid Prime 3.

Jonnas Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 I've played Halo 1 and, quite frankly, I can't see what's so special about it. Never played Halo 2, though. In my opinion, the only FPS of that generation worth mentioning is Timesplitters. It had a really fun multiplayer and even the single player mode had a fun co-op. [/Off-Topic] Anyway, Metroid Prime 3 is shaping up to be a memorable entry for the Metroid franchise. If it manages to capture the classic feeling of Metroid while implementing the new features (WiiMote, Allies), it will become one of the best games of this generation (much like the first Metroid Prime). If it becomes too much like your common FPS, it will be a dark chapter in the history of the Metroid series. The great thing about the Metroid Prime Series is the fact that it is so different than normal FPS (so different that there are people that refer them as First-Person Adventures, myself included). So let's just hope that the guys at Retro Studios won't let us down and make the best MP game ever.

The Lillster Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 I've never played Halo, but the people I know who have, said the game was awesome for its graphics. That's about it.

The Bard Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 This games art style and direction blows away anything I've played on the HD consoles so far. It makes me want to weep with happiness.
gaggle64 Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Wowserz, superb screen shots. The lighting seems very impressive for the Wii so far. One day I'd love to see retro put their immense talents to a non-Metroid game. Wouldn't mind someone having another crack at that "Starfox Adventures" idea for example. PS. Halo was simply incredible. An enthralling epic and intuitive action experience. Co-op is still a regular draw on my bro's Xbox. Also wins bonus points for best level name ever: "I would have been your daddy."
ShadowV7 Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Wow,those are amazing.My hype for this has shot up... Seriously I think it looks fantastic.Come on,give us it soon
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 That doesnt look bad. On another note, Retro Studios official site is down. http://www.retrostudios.com/
Coolness Bears Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Those screenshots looks oh so beautiful!!! This game is going to be awesome.
Jonnas Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Good to know that the exploration elements are still present. That floating citadel looks amazing. The art style really reminds me of Halo in certain parts. I hope the similarities stop there. I wonder who that is on first page: Dark Samus or a "corrupted" Samus.:wink: Finally, sorry if this is a dumb question, but what magazine is that?
