Dude, they said the exact same "We stripped the engine and recoded it to run smoother and look better than any game out there" for Fable 2, and that turned out to be worse than the original Fable.
Well Fable ran out of money, like they were literally putting their own money into it and crap...
Also Bungie knows what they are doing more than Lionhead in my opinion...
Not saying the game is gonna be horrible when it comes out, just saying that people are doing what they did with Halo 2-3-ODST-Wars etc which is putting the game up on a pedestal and claiming it to be the best game ever invented before even playing it.
I didn't say it looked like the best game...
I said it
looked like a nice game... Which is very true, I think all of us have to admit that...
Yes Halo 3 and ODST had their flaws... But so does any game...
( Halo wars doesn't count because it was made by ensemble and not Bungie )
Well they see how much more work is going into the game than other Halo's, so I can understand why they think it looks like the best game...
Basically, all their Vidocs are saying is that Halo 1 was undoubtedly one of the best in the Halo series, and what they want to do is try to emulate/improve upon it with Reach, concentrating on the Story and characters/exploration this time through.
Yes they are saying that Halo : CE was the best, because it was and still is to us "oldies" ...
They are showing us advancements in Reach. Also that they are using that great game (Halo : CE) as a springboard and to expect great things. They made the ViDoc to show the Halo Fans that this should be the best halo game out and how much work is going into this game...
So therefore if they are using the "best" halo game and improving on it, It should be utterly Epic. Correct?
I'm hoping it will live up to the hype, getting pretty bored of Divinity 2/MW2 on my box.
I am pretty sure it will, after seeing the ViDoc...
