first off, great point by Guiltyspark1969, the graphics have never been what bungie really focused on with their game. i have to say that the graphics for halo 3 are superb, not the best they could be, but for how massive the environments are, they are great! i also agree with FalconerX, when that scarab popped through the buildings, i had to pick my jaw up off the floor it was incredible... TO PC GAMERS: i just don't understand why so many (notice not all) of you come onto stories like this and just start static. if consoles are so horrible and degrading to you, why spend your time reading a story about a console game? seriously, if your pc is so great, go play a game or run folding@home or do something productive. my computer is kind of slow which makes it perfect for ranting haha. also, why brag about how much you spent? i get to play great games whenever i want on my 360 and i spend probably at least 1/4 what you spent and that includes all my games and accessories. if you think it's cool and something worth bragging about to have to upgrade your graphics card before each major game release then you need some help. all i know is great games keep coming out for 360 and ps3 and we don't have to upgrade our systems to play them. my 360 puts money in my pocket and a smile on my face.
