Were have i seen this before?

Ok,ok I know its late to get to the 'HALO SUX' party but I have a strong dislike for halo.
This post is a flamewar, because I am pissed off.

Now i will be the first to say that the first halo was great, it was fun had good controls for a console and was a truly great shooter. Even the plot wasnt horrible. But the best thing it did was reel in thousands of new gamers and thats always a good thing in my book.

And then there was the Halo 2.

And were do i begin. I mean they some how found a way to turn a great game in to a generic and dare I say 'run of the mill' and what it made up for in story (did i really just write that about a halo game?) it lost in the god damn 'mario and zelda' formula that well is a good way to make money is ultimently bad for the games industry. I you keep making the same game evey few years there is no room to grow,no room for innovation.Alot of this blame lyes on Nintendo. Case point: Mario and Zelda. well mario is trying new things these days Zelda seems hell bent on not doing a damn thing diffrent,and the sad thing is people dont seem to care much,they are content to live out there meager existencenes buying the same game every few years and then go on fourms ot defend it when people point this out. Well I think Nintendo is far to busy counting its money to care so lets get back to halo.

Then there was Halo 3. I played it for 10 minutes and said to my self "not this again..." and turned off the console.

Ultimently what i am getting at is that developers need to take more chances,sure there are risks involved but hey theres bound to be some thing new and innovative that will make you millions, I mean look at Doom and Command and Conquer. Untill then I guess i will be getting back to playing my Peggle:Nights.....
