I frequent an xbox forum where there's a lot of huge halo2 fan's im debating with...and i'm pretty much the lone half life defender. if you guys would like to POLITELY help me in debating the merits of the source engine (someone over there called the whole thing just a "gimmick"), please head on over to this link.

I'm not trying to advertise a site here, its not even my site. I'm just asking for help in a friendly debate.

please, don't flame or call names, i don't want to get in trouble with the mods for inciting a flamewar over there.
 
all the time. The only fun i got out was doing co-op with my friend on super hard mode, other wise i think the regular single player and multilayer are bad.
 
Dude you gotta be creative. Make up your own little games. Hehe i made this one called "Ram Da Jam" Its sooooo much fun, seriously. You just take the warthogs and ram eachother, you go flying.
 
Eh poor Kopa. Let it go man. You know very well that facts will not change opinion of a fanboy. Same here.. try to make argument Doom III vs HL2 and you will get so much bias crap. So if I were you, I would just forget about that post. I mean, in the end, they will miss a lot of fun.
 
my friend and i were playing that desert mp map, the one with a base at each end. We put a warthog up against the base and both through sticky nades on it then right before they exploded we shot it with a rocket launcher. The warthog went up, but never came back down.

Haha, i gotta try that. Theres so much things to do in halo. Did you ever play SP on the second map(Halo, i think) And before you go underground with the warthog and marines, theres a fairly big mountain. I love flinging the marines off of that.
 
whenever i hear ppl that say they hate Halo, it confuses me greatly

me and my friend had SO much fun doing coop together, it was great

What you talkin' 'bout Willis?


I really like Halo. The physics (like when you get shot with a Rocket Launcher) are absoutely hilarious! It pwned on the X-BOX...
 
I've never played Halo :D

But I don't like XBOX so I'll buy it for pc.

So in the end:

HL-2 will pwn
Halo 2 will pwn
and
Doom 3 will pwn

Get every vehicle up there including both tanks... then we'll talk. :LOL: That took quite a while...
 
Why cant you people like more than one game??? I like bf1942, HL1, Halo, ect ect. Is that a bad thing??

btw, I liked the Doom III beta, oh no!

Just because two products are in direct compition with each other you can only like one??

grow up.
 
You said "you people"

that means im part of the people, I think...

One other thing i enjoyed about halo was the bugs. I didnt really enjoy playing the game correctly.

Anyway theres this amazing bug in the silent cartagropher map. You know the cutscene where your guy kicks a rock off the ledge of that small platform? Well if you look down there you cant even see the bottom. If you look across you can see a cool pattern in the wall. With little pillars sticking out of the wall. Well theres an exploit where you can get alllllll the way down there, its pretty cool. It requires a warthog though. That means you need 2 ppl to ram the warthog through the door.
 
Hey i just tryed that plasma nade thing rocket thing in MP, ridic. I cant get it to go that high. give me the details on how you did it?

sure. oh, i didnt know if i said this, but you need 2 people to do this.

Ok drive a warthog to one of the bases and position it side ways along the wall. It should be close, it can even be touchign the wall.

Now back up a little. Both ppl equipe plasma nades and throw them on the car at the same time, then shoot a rocket at the car right before it explodes. You might have to make only 1 person throw the nades, and 1 person shoot the rocket because i forget how long the fuse is.

anyway the point is to have multiple explosions on the car. When you shoot it with a rocket it goes a certain height, then the first nade blows up, and it goes higher, then the second one blows.

It all depends where the nades are. If you get them in the middle then the warthow will probably go strait up. If you put them on the side then it will spin and fly side ways.

When i put the 2 nades on the back of the truck, it actually blew the warthog so high and so far to the left, that i got it to go from one base to the other.
 
yeah halo was pretty crappy for mp. i mean c'mon, u cant even be the aliens?? but u can use their guns, which by the way are CRAP for advanced alien tech. whats up wit the unbalanced weapons? i swear i can take out ppl easily with the pistol.
 
Muahahha, ridic. I just got it, omg it went flying. I almost got it to go to the other base, but i was a little short.
 
Speaking of Halo.....


www.redvsblue.com <- Some of the funniest shit i've ever seen done with a videogame. I suggest you watch the whole Blood Gulch Chronicles starting with the Trailer and watch the rest in order!!!
 
I cannot believe it's taking so long to port an Xbox game to the PC.. especially since it was in development for the PC before Mr.Billy Gates got his money to keep it exclusive to his new toy. I have seen screens of Halo for the PC and seen Halo in action on the Xbox, and it looks like it plays like crap. FPS on consoles suck, mostly because I can't think of anything other then a keyboard/mouse to kill things..

thats the smartest thing i've heard all day.

btw, i know halo2 will pwn, and half life 2 will pwn as well..but its hard to convince these people that hl2 is more than just a physics toy. but yeah i guess its pointless to try and convince a fanboy.


oh yeah, and halo1 is in my top 5 games of all time..that thing is awesome. I still have xbox lan parties to do CTF in it to this day...

my biggest complaint is weapons balance, liek someone else said. pistol>all other weapons. kinda odd.

A show from the 60s (70s??) Called Different Strokes. Gary Coleman was on it. He had an older brother on it who was named Willis, so he used to say: "What you talkin' 'bout Willis?"

At least, I think that's the right show.....

haha i think they play that on nick at nite. Ridic how could you not know that though?
 
look at the sites name. dont go there and start flaming about how hl2 will rule all.
 
know what the simple fact is that if your on an HL2 site, there will be HL2 fanboys, if your on an Halo2 site, there will be Halo2 fanboys. Fanboys never want to admit any flaw about whatevere they are a fanboy about. Look at this quote from that forum, on the first 5 posts

"Well, we do know that Halo 2's textures, bump mapping, and real time lighting are going to set new standards for games to follow."

I dont know much about Halo2, but im 99% sure that the real-time lighting is superior in Doom3
 
I frequent an xbox forum where there's a lot of huge halo2 fan's im debating with...and i'm pretty much the lone half life defender. if you guys would like to POLITELY help me in debating the merits of the source engine (someone over there called the whole thing just a "gimmick"), please head on over to this link.

ok, im gonna go to all the newbiest doom3 forums i know of and tell them you guys are dissing doom3 and to please come here and "politley" sort you out. Sound good?

IMO, the srouce engine is little more than a physics demo. It seems that they just built a engine and a game around another teams physics engine. Source doesnt look all that special(visually) even when compared to other engines that are out right now. The only thing that sets it apart is the physics engine made by a third party.

well i would know that saying if he didnt say willis...that part through me off since i have never seen the show.
 
For all the fans of XBox system link games (mainly Halo) that have broadband... check out GameSpy Tunnel and XBConnect. They both allow you to play system link games online for free.
 
down with consoles i hate them. You know there is something wrong when 4 console games equal the price of the console itself.
 
Why? They cost the same amount as computer games do... and if a super gaming computer costs 5-10 times as much as a game console, what does that say?

go read up about Source before you come here and pick it apart
 
right now consoles should always be under $150. They are not worth anything more IMO. With all my games for my ps2, i could probably bought 6 ps2's. Its not the same for computers though, since they do multiple things.

Consoles either need to do more than just play games or get a price decrease.
