mean, midi-like music in Wind Waker? WTF
That's a massive insult. The music quality in Halo is light years beyond the shit in Wind Waker.
Oh, and once again, Halo's music IS NOT MIDI.

Even him... How much do you think his last two games would sell if it wasn't for the massive hypoe around them? Probably not nearly as much as they did. Fable sold very well despite all the doubts people had after the unfulfilled hype from B&W.Unless your name is Peter Molyneux.

For the record, I have very little doubt Halo 2 is going to rock the cabash. First one was about the only FPS game I liked, and bothered to complete. In any case, Microsoft is very obviously, trying hard to inflate the hype in any way possible. Trying too hard perhaps? I don't know, too much hype probably never hurt anyone.

chespace said:well what i meant by that statement was this: riddick may not have been perfect (it's rather short, and it's rough in spots), but the game pushed the FPS genre in both design and graphics. simply put, it has raised the bar. now expectations for halo 2 are even higher.

Insertia said:There were reviews for Ninja Gaiden two weeks before it hit retail. First reviews for Halo were in a month before its release.

I'm still waiting for che to tell us how Riddick raised the bar...
Which doesn't mean it will (or could) have the same impact the first had 3 years ago. Even if it was better than the first in every way (and from what i hear, it definately is) that still wouldn't earn it the same praise halo 1 received back then.
Where have you heard that it is better? I would like some comfort here.
Lakitu said:I haven't read any impressions, due to me going into the game fresh but what I've heard around here, is definitely worrying me. Seems to be getting some negative vibes from some people. Is there something I'm missing? Obviously I am, due to avoiding spoilers.

Personally (Riddick being my GOTY so far), I'd say it raised the bar in a few areas :-
a) best use of a movie-license to date
b) best visuals on console to date IMO - the Cryo really blew me away to be honest. (Can't wait to see what Starbreeze do next)
c) excellent storyline, with excellent gameplay mechanics, and many ways to achieve goals.
d) Superior voice acting and realistic language
e) Decent replayability
and probably most importantly IMO :-
Riddick is probably a bigger franchise in gaming terms now, than in movie-terms.
So I would say that Halo 2 certainly has to reach the bar Riddick set for b,c and d (e is a given, a is not applicable)
All IMHO
