I'll forgive your Halo gushing simply because you have a picture of "City of the Lost Souls" as your avatar! Notice my sig?
The level design in the last half of Halo sucked like shit because there were about four different areas repeated a hundred times. Seriously, the last half of the game shouldn't have been more than an hour long, but they kept on copying and pasting every single friggin' room and area over and over to the point of insanity! I'm sorry, but that's a pretty damned big fault, and because of this erroneous error the game shouldn't have gotten more than an 8/10 from reviewers. It's the worst case of mass overhyping of a video game ever. I couldn't believe it after I beat the game.
And then there's the Flood, which also helped to ruin the second half of the game. If I wanted to shoot several dozen mindless enemies non-stop I would have bought "Serious Sam". One of the main draws of Halo for me was the great AI of the Covenant soldiers, but then halfwy through the game they replace them with these stupid mindless drones!! That was a major dissapointment for me.
But that's all ok. Any fan of Takashi Miike is a friend of mine. :D
