IGN gives it a f***ing good wrap. Anyone else looking forward to this?

No one else in the world is looking forward to it.

Except maybe everyone who likes 1 and 2...

I wonder what Steve Farrely will give it?

Game of the Year

3dee's sarcasm detector is totally not broken.

It's workin'. Don't worry guys. Did a diagnostic just to be sure.

If this ends up being game of the year I will claw my eyes out.

TF2 > Halo 3.

I saw it on 360 the other night, and it doesn't look that exciting. Same old, same old.

can we keep game of the year talk to steve farelly threads please

I'm tossing up whether to go get it at midnight or not. Its funny, cos I forsee the Halo 3 midnight launch being more popular than the launch for the PS3.

haha, it probably will be

I'm just gonna grab it from jb in the morning, the one at logan reckons they're getting 70 copies of the normal edition and about 130 or something of the limited one, I doubt they'll sell out.

im going to try and pick it up on sunday.

TF2 > Halo 3.

I sort of agree. I guess it's more of a halo fanboy thing but the graphics aren't really next gen. And the story is very boring, let alone the ending.

Steve Farrely has given it game of the year:

I wonder how many times you can rehash the same game before people stop caring.

i stopped caring after the first 5 mins of the pc demo of halo 1.

pretty epic score. i think bungie must have done a bit more than just rehash it.

edit: better than bioshock!?! (95%)

GOTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

the only thing i like about the games is the music. its tops.

rofl game of the year. You slay me pave.

Game of the year will be Mass Effect.

Game of the year will be Mass Effect.

any game with lesbian alien sex is game over the year imo.

Ummm, that's like saying you suspect the sun may rise tomorrow. Did you see the Australian PS3 launch? I saw an EB Games with 3 people inside, looking at the 360 section.

There's no way the multiplayer in this will be as good as TF2 though. I don't think I've had so much fun with an online FPS for years, and I foresee it keeping a strong user-base for a lot longer than Halo 3 does. Also the fact that the graphics have taken on such a stylised approach, it'll still look good in years to come.

Having said that, I'm sure Halo 3 will still be a very good game, but then again, didn't Doom 3 also get rated in the high 90's? Hype is a bitch.

it will be interesting to see how tf2 does on the consoles. pc gaming is kind of dead/irrelevant now.

let's just wait till cod4 comes out.
