Halo is waaaaay overrated and so is Halo 2.

How, exactly, can an unreleased game be over-rated?


I weep for Nintendo fans.

Oops, my bad there. I meant that Halo 2 is overhyped. I mean, everything that I've seen of the game thus far suggests that its pretty much more of the same thing from Halo all over again. Sure, you can dual wield weapons and steal an enemey's ride but big deal. I really don't understand all this fuss over Halo 2 and how it will become the biggest game of 2004. Maybe I'm just jaded from playing one too many FPS on the PC.......

I used to be a big Nintendorks fan (under the name J64), but I haven't been there in a long while after I got tired of them going down every two months. Seeing this article makes me very sad for the Nintendorks I used to know. They would've never posted anything based so much on fanboy statements and assumptions and stupid conjecture.

As far as I'm concerned, Matt and Chris both owned themselves pretty well.

i just read Matt's editorial - how old is he meant to be this year? seemed like he is frustrated that the GC is losing it out and that Nintendo's franchises no longer have the selling power they used to, on the GC at least, and suddenly came to a conclusion that the answer is another Smash Bros. game.

IMO a new SSB sequel won't do much for the GC as people are still snapping up Melee anyhow, and everyone i know with a GC still plays Melee, but most importantly, a sequel on Revolution would benefit the series much better, i doubt a new title for GC would have much else apart from more characters and stages

anyhow, his points are damn silly and delusional, i'll read the Nintendorks response, just for fun.

ElyrionX, more of the same with new additions isn't exactly a new thing in this industry...even Super Smash Bros. falls into that area.

Pretty much the opposite of what I was going to type. :p

I thought it read like frothing, raving fanboy bullshit -- ie, crap.

(More technically speaking, he repeats himself a lot and doesn't really get to a real point, if you ask me. He typed a whole lot without managing to say much.)

IAWTP. I didn't really agree with Matt's article but at least it was a lot better written this that utter crap at Nintendorks.

While the nintendorks article had some good points (biggest being Matt ignoring Zelda: MATURE VERSION), it was on the whole stupider than what it was attacking.

Yea... Nintendorks is fucking retarded. I stopped going there a long time ago.

I thought you stopped going there because you got banned for being an idiot and a jerk?

edit: I should read the whole thread.
