Zero Punctuation does Halo 3

I have posted in a while, and it was about Halo 3 last time, too. Last time, I promise. Anyway, if you haven’t yet, you NEED to check out this guy’s work here. This is his latest video, but he’s got about 10 more. Every video absolutely skewers the game in question. If you don’t have a sarcasm bone, you probably won’t like it, especially because he holds no cows sacred. Case in point, Halo 3. And actually BioShock, too, a few weeks ago. Two of the best games this year (and yes, I’ve beaten them both) and he pretty much craps on them. But it’s funny and actually pretty spot on if you can take off the fanboy suit and be objective for a moment. Anyhoo, just watch it.

Kevin Says:Let me first start off by saying I love the Halo franchise, and have loved Halo 3 so far. That said, this guy brought up two points that I’ve always said about Halo.
1) For a game that takes itself so serious at times, the little “retarded” aliens that run around screaming have always annoyed me. They just don’t fit with the game … they “dumb it down” so to speak.
2) The sound effects for the guns in all the Halo games suck ass. They have no punch to them. If you ever played America’s Army with your speakers and sub turned up, then you know what a beefy, loud, mean gun sounds like. In Halo, none of the guns feel satisfying when it comes to the sound effects. The end result is a “tin can” feeling whenever you pull the trigger.
