    English Test 2? That's a game people buy in bulk for their DS in Japan? Is there an actual game shortage going on or something?



    ...all of the console-selling Blue Dragon sales pay dividends for Microsofts, who causes many Japanese to get violent through indoctrination with Halo 3, woohoo <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" /> .

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. There's no point in trying to understand Japan.

    Seriously.

    Next thing you know, Orange Box will be sold in 3 parts in Japan and Portal will become Japan's best seller of all time, causing Super Mario to be forgotten in its wake of the remodeled main female character into a chibi schoolgirl with magical portal powers.

    Explanation found!

    A burger and fries looks pretty good when every other option is a peanut butter sandwich and carrot sticks. Sure, it's not a rare steak with red wine, but it's the only option you have.

    Ever thought we might dislike Halo because it's just an average, mostly boring FPS?

    Maybe we dislike Halo because it went from an innovative third person action strategy game on the Mac and PC from the makers of Marathon and Myth to a crappy, boring, floaty, console only copyandpastefest that stupid people hail as the second coming of Christ.

    I played 1 and 2 and have seen screenshots of 3. It's like playing a 'Die Hard' series type movie. You do the same thing over and over with the same character in the same environment. I've seen rooms in Halo 3 (Like the one someone featured in their Halo 3 topic, the one with the texture alignment) with a lack of light sources and full bright rooms, lack of creativity and imagination... I mean hell some rooms are boxed with generic textures and barrels in. The outside areas look pretty, but how well do they play? In Halo 1 and 2 they didn't play all that well. It's a question of gameplay > graphics Belgian Waffles, gameplay wins everytime.
