While I recognize that everyone is entitled to their own opinion when it comes to a gaming review, however these minor issues you bring up I dont feel should bring down your review to a "C+". When you write a game review you are more or less writing a review on a game on how it stacks up to what other games are out on the consoles.

" I know Bungie said they made it stronger, but to be killed in 3 seconds by the needler is really wrong. Its amazing how Bungie figured running at someone and unloading on them without dying only to be turned around and shot twice by the needler and die is a valuable strategy in multiplayer."

This is one example of how you are basing your review off what is obviously your lack of skill at the game. Just giving some constructive critisism. *smile*

You should write a Halo 3 review and voice your opinion Picktor.


I'm smart enough to know what I don't know

That has nothing to do with skill. Its all based on how the game actually plays

Bullcrap, I have no problems in multiplayer and I feel the game is very evenly balanced. Honestly, don't write a review if you're going to criticize a game due to your skill. Ask anyone and they will tell you that you're biased in your review

Its all about opinion, which is what reviews are. You are speaking like a true Halo fan who thinks Halo i the best thing o grace this earth. It is far from perfect, and my score has nothing to do with my skill in the game.

That didn't sound like an opinion to me *wry smile*

The best reviews are the most unbiased. If you really want write a good review look at every aspect. Dont just go by one playthrough of the game...

if you didn't enjoy playing through it the first time, whats the point of doing it again? Honestly I am with Centurion on this one. I played the game numerous times only having any semblance of fun on co-op.. The game was just entirely to... lifeless. I played through multi working my way up to Captain grade 2. It was really boring way before I reached that though. I only kept playing because it was something to do with friends. Halo in all honesty is a good game, but saying it's a great game is to be looking at it through rose colored glasses.

And that is why you will never review games as a career....

I never said in my review I only played one game and than based it on that run through. The way everyone always bashes me about Halo 3 proves to show what diehard fans you are, and thats cool. I just never got into the game and felt it wasnt as good as everyone else said it was
