You have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! what age are you 4?? Call of duty 4's graphics are incredible, halo 3's are as yahtzee said just a spew of colour. In fact if you woke up timred one morning and turned on halo 3 you could be forgiven for opening your xbox/pc disk tray and maker sure someone hasn't swapped in halo 2
Call of Duty 4 does have good graphics. I said it was graphically weaker in comparison to Halo 3. I stand by that opinion.

While they haven't greatly updated the protagonist's character models they put a lot of work into the environments (The flood level notwithstanding), animation and brute character models.

Yahtzee you charismatic stallion, you seem to have played the whole series of many other games you reviewed, why have you neglected to do so for Halo 3? I would advise you play through the first two games of the Halo series and then retry Halo 3, I think you would enjoy it a lot more if you at least knew the story.

You know, for me, a game that is a sequel and does not care about newcomers is really stuck up its own ass. Halo 3 did not explain anything about the previews Halo storylines and that is one of the reasons I will not try this one. Why try it? To get a FPS experience but that will be completed only with the other two Halo? I think that Microsoft is rich enough without me. Also, having a game with a single player campaign that is only up to 12 hours max is not worth BUYING for the simple reason that not everybody can afford an Internet connection. Burnout 3 lasted about twice as long without multiplayer or online races and stuff. A perfect game should have no excuses and this one has very many things to be sorry about. Single player, story, a bit on graphics sbout the face textures, NPC that are not very smart, no backstory telling. Bioshock is definately better.

So, you are not going to spend ooh about $20US for the first two games so you can see why the campaign is so highly reviewed; although, I suppose everyone is entitled to they're own opinion, but really it is a good story if you actually care to try it from the beginning. Plus, no one has mentioned the skulls, they can be used for endless amusement to augment the game into things it could have never been without them. I'm not saying it's perfect, but it is a better story than a lot of people give it credit for.

wow not one of you people on this forum even have the testicular fortitude to challenge anything yahtzee says do you? I personally enjoyed the game but thats justthe thought of someone who has free will and dosen't bow down to everything one reviewer says. Sure I enjoy yahtzee's reviews on video games it provides a nice alternative to people laying down everything good about a game and not enough about the bad aspects of it that may bite you in the ass during gameplay.

The thing is that there are actually people out there who did not like halo(I shit you not) before yahtzee even opened his mouth. Don't assume that just because somebody does not like a game they are disliking it mereley to get on the bandwagon.

Seems funny coming from someone who actually has 'Zero Punctuation'. And you can take your gibberoni Wrestling phrases, clean 'em up real nice, turn them sideways and...

nice negative comeback. could stand a bit of polishing up though. Telling someone to shove their opinion sideways up their own ass how very orginal. If you come up with something better i'll be in the hall of overly used insults.

How about this, then!
You are the Escapist's feces; once all of the nutrients that keep the forum healthy have been used, you are the excrement that remains.
In British terms, I would appreciate it if you would bugger off.
Toodle pip!

Oooh finally something thats not even worth my time. Please would the next insult at least up you standards. Telling someone that they're shit is only a minor insult, nice wording though. You forum people are to much fun to stir up.
