That's what bugs me, if you are looking for something "new and different" you don't buy a damn sequel. A sequel is a return to the same gameplay style for another go. You get enhancements and tweaks in a sequel but in most cases you get the same formula at the core.
It irritates horribly when someone bashes a sequel because it's "same old, same old" that's exactly what a sequel is supposed to be. Someone doesn't play a game and say "I love this game I hope they make a sequel and completely change the forumla!"
If you want something new and different try Bio Shock (excellent game) but if you are wanting more of Halo style FPS then get Halo 3 which WILL be very much like Halo and Halo 2 with a few upgrades and tweaks.

^^^^^^^ no it's not supposed to be that way yes cont. with the story part yea but same old weapons same kindda maps..i think the sequel to a game should stay true to the core but update it self with new stuff new options and they did but kindda half assed nothing really new and diffrent.u really don't see how game companies run a game through the mill over and over???i sure do
Well thats around the lines of what I was gonna post, but pale said it fine for me. I just was never really a big halo fan, just never feel into the craze. I think its a lot more hype than anything, and prolly forces a lot of games to go un-noticed, and a lot of potentially FPS's not to be made because they are scared to compete.Quote:

In all of their games the add new and great things every time, but still stick to the basics. And the Final Fantasy series, that seems to switch up game play every time, and still pulls of a genius job.Quote:

Halo3 is a truly awesome game all together
I love the game, it's fun owning but can be frustrating getting owned lol.
