Well well...is that---is that ANOTHER 9 (9.25 actually...) for ODST? Jeez...all of these people are in cahoots I tells ya!
I woulda bought this game with no review, simply because I trust Bungie and MS with this franchise, but to see the accolades pour in is always a nice boost.
Almost outta work...Halo time soon...
MS doesn't disappoint its gamers. Strangely, only those who don't have a 360 are always angry and disappointed.
Misdirected maybe?
Who are you speaking about here? Im confused...
"There's nothing here that outshines the original content, and some of the new bosses are not on par with their fiend friends. Also, if you've played the Xbox version you'll miss the delightful fountains of blood that previously covered every level."
and...
"Strangely though, this version contains far less blood than the original Ninja Gaiden 2. It no longer sprays from hacked limbs, and only appears on the ground in small spurts. It has even been wipe...
NG2 still sounds the same to me. Nice 'exclusive'.
And those of you butt hurt about Halo's GFX scores, get a life. Is there better tech out there compared to the Halo 3 engine? Sure. Light years better? not really.
Is there many devs out there that have the skills that Bungie has putting that engine to work? No.
@ below
Actually, Im at work, waiting to get out and play it. And its more like 6-7 hours on Heroic. Much rather play even 4...
Is that you? You do seem to speak nonsense...
Potshot at ODST? Nice try. New campaign versus a re-heashed 360 game thats over a year old? Hmmmm....
You crazies can pretend like this a new game all you like, but the review couldnt be clearer. I truly hope people see the comments on here as proof as to how illogical and pathetic the SDF really is. It just boggles the mind.
Here's a fun question...do they still give Itagaki credit for the game? I bet t...
It would be a great idea to offer games to download. I dont see the problem at all in that idea.
The only thing I think this article is referring to is the whole backwards compatibility thing. Obviously, some would be upset if they did this but still didnt let u play your own PS2 games from a disc. I get that part of it.
But my honest opinion on BC? Get over it! Im glad the Xbox 360 lets you play most of the worthwhile games, especially Halo 1&2, but at this ...
They actually were nice in giving it the same score. Its basically the same game, over a year later, for $60. Not to hard to comprehend that one...
EDIT
Well, if what below says is true, thats funny. You know what even funnier? Raztard and Morganfail trying to actually convince people this is a different game! Wake up! This is the same game many of the SDF were trashing when it came out on 360, over a year ago. But now, since they slapped 'Sigma' on the title...
Wasnt expecting this review just yet. I honestly thought they would say its this new and improved version of NG2. Sounds like the same thing to me.
"So what’s different about Sigma 2? Honestly, not much. The Story mode looks, sounds, and plays just like the original. Which, yes, means it still has the same camera issues that sometimes made it hard to see who you should be hacking and slashing. Though it is less bloody: cutting off limbs in the 360 version was like turning...
If any of you had any doubt about who is doing some serious trolling around here...
Too bad Juuken--er, I mean Ultimolu has me on ignore. Its good to see you finally admit what you're about. Riling up the 360 folks...why, so we could act more like you and your ilk?
No thanks.
Sorry...this is kind of a funny question, with Halo ODST dropping today, and talking about sales...lol.
way too many heavy hitters coming for 360 for the PS3 to catch up. Thats my take. The biggest game I forsee on the Ps3 has to be GT5. And I mean from all the games coming up. period.
Even GoW 3, a series that I personally count as one of my favorites, wont sell the likes of Halo. It never did on the PS2, so I dont expect it to now.
But MS? Gears ...
Nice...something free. There needs to be more of these for free...cheap bastards.
Picked up my copy of ODST this morning...played about 30 min or so before I had to leave to work. Its great so far
Wow...Halo just brings out the best in people! No way Im gonna waste my life reading all that nonsense, but I get the gist of it...you dont like Halo. We get it. And we think its funny.
Thanks for dropping by.
IGN, Gamespot, 1up...the biggest three all hand out 9's. Its a done deal, case closed. CVG and EDGE, the big guys from the UK hand out 9's. Done.
The rest is all just hating just to hate. Opinions are like...well, you know what they're like.
The burn is setting in, the inescapable Halo launch is here, and the fangirls have to squirm and take it. This is when it gets good boyos, grab some popcorn and laugh it up...because we'll all be too busy gaming soon to care...
This one is kind of dated. The guys at these companies dont care about any 'war' going on. They just love them some games.
Actually, when I was on line for ODST at e3, there was a guy from either ND or Insomniac there in front of me (cant remember honestly). It wasnt uncommon at all to see people from the other companies at the others' booths.
Even Greenberg admitted to playing MLB The Show. You cant deny a good game no matter where its from.
Maybe its hard to find people that AREN'T Halo fans? Last time I checked, it does have quite the following...
And those people that review games, you would think they also LIKE games, namely one hailed as one of the best ever. Perhaps they enjoy the things that make Halo great, like the millions of others out there do too.
You know, just think about that...10 million copies of Halo 3 sold in two years. Halo is a straight up phenomenon in gaming. Which also makes ...
but 197 comments on N4G mean nothing; anyone here will tell you its the most bogus articles that sometimes get the biggest hits. I would think you sound smart enough to grasp that concept.
As far as Nowgamer is concerned, I think they're totally entitled to their opinion. But for people to act as if they are the only ones willing to tell the truth simply because they gave a low score to a highly-anticipated game, namely a Halo game, is BS.
Since they have YET (if e...
Taking the crown before its even out. What a freakin beast this franchise is! It deserves nothing less.
Its nice when you're fave game of all time is also enjoyed by so many others out there. To those of us that cant get enough Halo, its strange that so many out there dont like it...but what are u gonna do? C'est la vie.
I sure hope the XBL servers are ready for this...LOL. and when MW2 drops, those suckers will be working some OT! Im also glad I never got arou...
Bias I say! LOL...
Cant wait man! Im tempted to just get it at midnight...but I wanna get it at Toys R Us, since they're giving away a $20 gift card with purchase, plus a free ODST figure.
Man...all I gotta say is Firefight. I was on here ranting about it right after playing it at E3. Its f'n awesome! Many a pet/job/significant other will be neglected!
Tempted to take a sick day tomorrow....
I dont see that...

All 9 or above. I dont follow.
@ hellz
I get that, but know that even a blog that me or you type up can be on N4G, so if there is no weight behind those negative reviews, i wouldnt worry about them. You seem to have plenty of bubbles, so I would think you arent naive about how N4G works, no?
