Halo 3: 5 Reasons Not To Care

xsynergyx | September 01, 2007 | News | XBOX 360 
GameDaily has gone at it to tear apart Halo 3 and list the 5 reasons, why people shouldn't be so hyped up about it. With 1.5 million pre-orders and one of the most anticipated games of the year, if not the most anticipated, why, you ask? Go to the source to find out why.
With over 1.5 million preorders, an aggressive marketing campaign and plenty of hype, Halo 3 is just as important as Brunswick Bowling. Ok, that's not entirely true. We dug the beta, and playing through the single player campaign alongside three buddies can be a fun time, but we refuse to drink the Kool-Aid for the following reasons...

    People cheat? Are you serious? That happens with every game.

    Wow. I thought the quality of Gamegrep articles was poor, but not this bad. You guys are desperate to stay on top of the points, huh?

      I know. When I saw the article, I thought 'Well these reasons suck total ass', but I decided to submit it and see what people had to say about it. And no, I'm not desperate.

      Exactly. xsynergyx is a sad loser who lives to impress people over his e-penis.


      And yes you are desperate.

    Halo 2's single player campaign left us empty and unwilling to "finish the fight".
    It's called a cliffhanger. After seeing that ending, I wanted to finish Halo 3 so I could truly finish the fight.

    Halo 2 multiplayer was sweet until scumbags began exploiting the system, thus ruining an enjoyable experience. Halo 3 will likely suffer a similar fate
    Those came from modded consoles, and didn't Microsoft ban those from Xbox Live ?

    We Bought Into the Halo 2 Hype
    And how is that Bungie's and everyone else's fault ?

    Some of there reasons have major flaws.

    Halo is not the only game with cheaters, so does every other game. Its called hacking/modding. It happens in every online game.

    I do agree on the multiplayer being almost the same, it only has a bit of added features in it from Halo 2. However, you cannot denie the fact that it will be great.

    Now the "finish the fight" "reason", its called a cliffhanger (Like Turmoil said.) what do you expect for the final cutscene?

    Now the last reason. Well, that's just there opinion. If they cannot live with major reasons with major flaws. Its there problem.

    There are downsides to every video game. But these five reasons alone make this video game unplayable?

    Brainfart.

    By this logic we shouldn't care about any game.

    I gotta agree with all the reasons, i felt this way after playing halo 2. Also let me point out the cheats wasn't from the story mode it was from XBL and i hated it, i experience it loads of times. Also yes they were banned but that was from xbox 1 not xbox 360, most likely it will happen again.
    The story mode really did suck, and not just the ending. Well to be honest the hype was from MS, since they were making halo to be the best game ever.

    However this is a new game, hopefully it won't have this stuff. But like one of the celebrities said about halo 3 how much improvement will this game get from 2, since 2 was awesome.

    And the number one reasone (for me) not to care about Halo 3:

    I don't have a 360 yet.

    Although when I do get one, I doubt I'll get any of the 3.
