No, not well said. He's cherry-picking [i]one[/i] example of [i]one[/i] member of the Bungie staff "overselling" an aspect of the game almost two years ago and using that as definitive "proof". While ignoring and glancing over the heart of my message.
He's also failing to mention both the follow-up statement from Bungie that same month reminding people that the E3 Demo was a stand-alone, one-off rough build made specifically for the event. As well as failing to show examples other times in Bungie's past were they have done the same thing. The Halo franchise also had early, prelaunch content that was shown off for marketing purposes and never used in-game. Much of that lost in time because the Internet was still young back then.
Look at that cool MacWorld teaser for Halo that showed deformable terrain and the ability to hold-up enemies and steal their vehicles.
That wasn't in the game and it also showed that the basic design for Halo was complete in 2000. Even though it was being displayed on an updated Myth engine.
Things change.
You know, i notice that anytime someone disagrees with people like you, you get really butthurt and insulting, instead of taking it like a man. It IS well-said, cuz that trailer up there, is what bungie sold us, the consumers, on. Ya wanna sit here and constantly defend a game that has damn near nothing in it, just cause it was made by Bungie? There're HUNDREDS of games/series out there that could this publicity, yet why do ya'll focus on this ONE game?
Answer: Bungie has ya deluded that this game will get better. Tight controls are tight, but that ain't enough to sell a game that essentially recycles itself over and over. Bungie knew this, so they promised a unique experience, falsely advertising all the features in that video. Here's another video of the same thing, only hosted/joined by someone else. Notice that the person that drops is a man, instead of a women.
Also ,you're saying i ignored your message. I didn't, but i was pissed off by you calling people like me a-holes. We have a valid opinion/argument, and that makes us lesser than you? GET OFF YOUR HIGH-HORSE.
It's all about shareholders and big profits, you can't deny this game is lacking in content, I really like the game but from day one I wasn't that impressed with the content.
Find me someone else on this entire forum who has provided, on the fly, at one time, in one place, as many links, articles and resources (some affirming, some "damning") as I did in my original comment....
No-one has, cuz no-one really cares. Good for you, yer well informed. Good for you, you can find these articles. Good for you, you're famous. But yer also an insulting piss-ant.
