Because the moment that supply does meet consumer demand... the magic of the Wii is gone (in my opinion). I got my Wii because I thought the Wii must be the best thing on earth.... I was wrong.
they almost scared me there till I read it is just "in-game" kudos money. Something like that.
You know... I think I just made myself mad. Sony fanboys are annoying as hell. I have never docked a sony game as being inferior. Hell... I want to play Killzone 2 and motorsport and whatever else. I'm not gonna say... your lineup sucks and Halo 3 owns you or make outrageous comments. It seems like a lot of PS3 fans love doing it though. Sure... I'm sure Wii and Xbox fanboys do the same thing but it seems like it is at a much lower rate. I hate making generalizations but if I was a PS3...
You know... I respect people who buy and like any of the systems out there. But man... *some* PS3 fans sure are annoying sometimes and give others a bad name. And those backwards E's (3's) annoy the crap out of me.
I agree it is hard to make a statement like that but... they do come darn close if they don't already have the best lineup for the year.

Not sure when you played the beta but I know early on people were always using the gernade launcher because you start off with it and it seemed awesome. Later on a lot of people realized it cramped their style and they couldn't be on top of the leaderboards if they used the gernade launcher so more tactical weapons with different scopes were used. I know at the end of the beta, gernades were used a lot less. I don't think many pros would be caught dead using the g...
I think Bungie concentrated too much on "extra" features and not enough on doing what they should have done... (sadly the list could get long) but... mainly CO-OP and custom games with online people... not just online friends who are mostly too busy doing their own thing then to sit down with you and beat the game on legendary.

Yeah. The three levels on the beta were (questionable) better then Halo 3. When I play Halo 3 I'm like... why didn't they do this or that more like Call of Duty 4. And... since Halo 3 decides it wants to pick the same freakin levels over and over again... it is almost like Halo 3 only has three maps anyway. j/k with that one...... kinda. You know... if Halo and Bungie split... I'd love to see IW (makers of Call of Duty 2 and 4) make the game. As long as you keep the bright color scheme....
American troops in Japan buy American versions at the military exchanges which I don't think count into the Japanese hardware/software sales. I would know... I had to do it.

I actually can't believe that bladestar is getting disagrees. It is weird that people are so against certain companies. I can see people not liking a product line but it is rediculous that it carries over to the whole brand. Take me for instance... I'm not too big a fan of the PS3 but I love their cameras, cell phones, and walkmans.
Both Microsoft and Apple both have their flaws and both overcharge and have set some bad precedents at some point. I don't think Ipod are fla...
Wow... I can't believe some of you guys. This is a HUGE feature. As for Halo 2... I barely played it because its multiplayer system was broken too!!! Why should we play game modes that Bungie set up and are quite crappy in my opinion and the opinion of a lot of people. Single team capture the flag and bomb? What happened to the classic two team capture the flag and bomb? Then Bungie makes a great feature where we can download their great game bombs but... unless you have a group of frie...
I'm pretty sure next generation systems won't use anything like a Wii remote. Sure... maybe slight motion control like the current PS3 controller. Maybe a couple peripherals that are extra to your standard controller but... I just don't think the hard core market is for waving their arms around which is much less accurate and slower then a thumb. I do like that Nintendo tried something new and I do think the Wii succeeds in a lot of areas... just not the hardcore market.
You know... both my roommates had Wii's and although they talked it up a lot... they never played it. I got one of them to get a 360 and the other a PS3 and they play it to all hours of the night. Although people say that the Wii selling rate proves that the Wii is not a fad... I think it is. It is just selling because it is still selling out so people are intrigued by that and because of parents buying a system for their kid. If I had a kid, the Wii would be on the top of my list for the...
Mr. Blings... I agree with you completely. I have not seen a game where the Wiiremote has actually been better then a standard controller... it actually just made me fustrated. Even Wiisports... I got tired of it after a couple hours. I would return my Wii but I'm saving it for three of my favorite games (on the Wii)... Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Brothers and Mario Kart. It is too bad they will use the Wii remote thing.
I've been saying this from day 1 and I always got disagrees. The Wii remote control is very sloppy and inaccurate and makes me want to through my control out the window. When I plug in the "classic" controller for the Wii though I am amazed at how natural using my thumb to control cursors and motions is.

I don't think there are many foreigners. There are two military bases (that aren't that big anyway) and they have their own navy exchange where they buy American versions of the games and consoles (I know... I've been there).
Japan is a great place to visit but what I got from visiting there is that they don't cater to foreigners. Almost NOONE knows English unless you go to Tokyo. Their signs are mostly all in Japanese unlike almost every place in the world. The one weird...
I thought the graphics were "alright" except for some of the players look like their clothing is painted on and not actual clothes. Especially the girl with the bra and pants on... it looks so unrealistic.
I would think the marines would be the first to use Halo 3 as a recruiting tool.
Yeah, it's quite difficult to depict who is just a fanboy hater and have not played the game and who actually played the game. The story is actually excellent and if you could predict the various twists in this game then good on ya.
I'm not even sure what to say to respond to this review. A 5.4??? Alright... maybe the campaign can take a hit on being a little short and not very good marine AI looks. The story is excellent though. Those Cortana moments really are part of the story. Near to the end I'm wondering if she is actually on my side which is what they wanted you to question. I know I am a harsher critic then most on Halo 3 but I will still say it is one of the best games ever made. I think the campaign is o...
