Indeed...I enjoy a nifty flash presentation as well as the next guy, but have a bit of trouble trusting a fellow named after a mindless dice-rolling game. In addition, the English wannabe colonial displays an almost Al Gore-like smugness as he gives a rather shallow imitation of Stewie Griffin. Oh, yes, it is very chic to flame the most popular console FPS series in history, and that after stating that he didn't play the first two games; but, gee, he's entitled to his ill-informed and ignorant opinion anyway. And so he is--as are the members of the Flat Earth Society. Then, just to underline the incredible lack of understanding of the series popularity, he smugly states that he distains the multiplayer. The tone there being that only Nascar-watching, beer-swilling cretins actually lower themselves to play a multiplayer game, and on a CONSOLE, for God's sake! Oh, the cultural elitists are nothing if not amusing as they wallow in their own gooey hubris. Yes, Bioshock is a better single player game, and so is Half-life, and some others. But none of them are as much pure FUN. So not having played Halo or Halo 2, and participating in nary an online session, and having no idea what-so-ever about the backstory...nevertheless he will produce a cutesy flash offering that only shows his stuck-up prejudice, and flames the game in a pathetic attempt to bolster his intellectual and oh-so-liberal credentials.
Filthy lucre is not my idea of establishing the quality of ANYTHING, but the Bungie folks must be chuckling to themselves as they shop for new BMW convertibles, etc. I HAVE played Halo, and Halo 2, and now Halo 3. I am not the least bit ashamed to admit that I greatly enjoyed the experiences. I do swill beer sometimes, but don't go for the Nascar thing...
Finally, I wonder where the venerable Yahtzee lives. There can be no house or apartment large enough to contain both him and his ego. Drive on, Yahtzee, further into the fog...
