    Zero Punctuation: Halo 3

    There's a metric shittonne of plot; it just isn't all put out on display. Halo's storyline [a nice mish-mash of original writing, Star Hammer, the Culture series, Aliens, Christian and Norse mythologies] is layered. You can play the games and skip every cutscene and still know what to do. You...

    Zero Punctuation: Halo 3

    Wow, because pretty much every corner I turned had some masked lass with a gun pointing at me or a rocket turret just sitting there for the hell of it. Hard? They're piss easy on any difficulty.

    Zero Punctuation: Halo 3

    Disagree utterly with this one I'm afraid. Worse than Bioshock? Uck. Bioshock was an excellent example of storytelling done right, but there wasn't an actual GAME attached to it. Halo on the other hand is well, the closest thing to the perfect FPS that I've yet to come across. Yes we all enjoy...
