SDF Review: Halo 3 (360)
Believe.
Ahh yes “believe”… the new $10 million dollar marketing slogan for Halo 2.5 stolen shamelessly from a video game message board. They want us to believe Halo 2.5 has a good single player story, they want us to believe that the multiplayer doesn’t pale in comparison to even the most generic of PC shooters, they want us to believe the graphics look like Halo 2 in HD because of ‘the scope’ and they want us to believe the much hyped ‘Forge’ is a sufficient replacement for a map editor.
Here is what you should believe:
What Halo 2 started with mediocrity, Halo 2.5 finishes. The story is a mess, full of plot holes and feels extremely cheesy. Even the game’s laggy 4 player co-op doesn’t help keep the single player campaign from being mediocre at best. All I can say is thank god the single player portion is very short as I’m not sure how much more sloppy writing I could endure.
Halo 2.5’s multiplayer is a letdown as well. It’s Halo 2 with a pseudo map editor. No dedicated servers, still pay to play online and only 16 players per match. Bungie should look at Resistance and Warhawk, both of which have dedicated servers, 40 players online, free to play online and are PS3 exclusive, to see how a multiplayer experience should be.
In conclusion, what was supposed to be the game of the year is looking to be yet another dud on the 360 in the same vein as Perfect Dark Zero, perhaps a bit worse. I would wait for a price drop or even avoid this title altogether. If you are looking to satisfy your FPS lust look no further than Haze and Unreal Tournament 3. With Haze’s superior 4 player co-op and UT3’s free online multiplayer and thousands of maps (thanks to Blu-ray and a real map editor) you can’t go wrong on PS3 for your online shooter fix.
SDF Score: 2.5/10
totally agree with you guys
first!
OH, dammit! I was hoping to be first! Ok, you guys can lick my balls. 2.5? How original! Give the game the score you’ve been calling it. Halo 3 has just destroyed your precious Sony PS3! How many people stood in line for Liar…whoops, Lair at midnite? OH YEA…..that would be none. I only registered because I had to say something to you douche bags…You aren’t even worthy enought to lick the Master Chiefs Balls. I know how much you’d like that because maybe he might put in out for your sissy system PS3…but he won’t let you cause the Chief knows that the PS3 is for douche bag fucks like you and the rest of SDF. HALO 3 ROCKS!! SUCK A COCK YOU FAGS!!!
BOYCOTT SDF after you rip this gay ass review!!!
BOYCOTT!!!!!!
SDF = Single Dickless Fags…that cry at nite because Halo 3 isn’t for the PuSsy3
just had to add that.
*ahem*

Damn thought it would get a lower score.I love the SDF
[...] [._.] [...]
I remember a month back when this site used to be somewhat entertaining. If I wasn’t stuck at work I would be home playing Halo 3, instead I’m killing time reading fake reviews on your shitty website. Oh well, fuck SDF, fuck PS3, fuck Sony. MS fanboism FTW!!!!!
I’m disappointed. All the hype, and it didn’t deliver.
The review, I mean. I haven’t actually played Halo 3 yet. But I had high hopes for the comedic value of this review, and sadly, the truth is…
The Bioshock review was funnier.
Oh well, hopefully your review of Mass Effect will live up to the hype.
This is a really big disappointment. I didn’t chuckle once throughout the entire review, not even a smile. You hyped up your review too much and it really hasn’t delivered. I know this site is a joke but you see joke’s are meant to be funny
I give you’re review 1/10.
You’ve been calling it Halo 2.5 for ages, and now give it 2.5
Wow. How inventive. You’re not even GOOD trolls any more.
Men its true Halo 3 got lowers score them Gears of War and Warhawk they should call it a Halo 2 expansion they know you idiots where going to buy the game so they dint add 2 extra thing and call it Halo 3, well ok the game is out now the 360 dont have anymore console saller game that only other one is Mass Effect and is not looking good for Microsoft
FUCKING LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
lol, why does the 360 need any more ‘console seller games’, they’re selling plenty consoles as it is, all they need to do is to make sure that they have a wide range of quality games. Looks like the ‘console war’ is already over
I wanna hire SDF for the New York Times, pleeeeeeeease, you write best things!
“Bungie should look at Resistance and Warhawk, both of which have dedicated servers, 40 players online”
40 players online? wow, Halo 3 got at this writing moment 102,655 online, you loose!
I think more people will play Halo 3 online than Warhawk and Resistance combined.
@ps3up.
Halo 3 got higher scores than any of those. This game will sell better than every ps3 game combined. And Mass Effect is looking amazing.
lol…i couldn’t expect more from SDF. i can’t believe people actually take this website seriously. they are for entertainment purposes. i love it

I will attribute PS3UPS poor grammar to the fact that he was juggling Phil Harrison’s balls in one hand while stroking Kojima with the other and had a mouthful of David Jaffe all at the same time. It’s tough to type with your toes isn’t it PS3UP? That Sony love will make you do some crazy shit right PS3UP?
Totally agree with the review, and why is it that all xbox fans can think of when trying to insult ps3 owners is “enjoy liar.. I mean lair”.
So xbox fans, enjoy playing MGS4, Gran Turismo 5, FF XIII, Killzone 2, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted… oh wait your not getting any of those. All you get is Halo, mass effect, bioshock and the red rings of death.
Ok, back to playing Heavenly Sword… sure it’s a tad short, but it’s got a better presentaion, gameplay, and graphics than any game the 360 could ever hope have.
@ChefSean2006
Heavenly Sword and great gameplay in the same sentence? Hack and slash, puzzles that consist of throwing hats at gongs, and memorizing button combos to finish off boss battles is considered great gameplay these days?!?!?! Lord help us all.
yes, there is some minor button mashing, but that just goes to show the extent of the 360’s pile of aborted fetuses they call games… when they only reason to buy a system is halo, which’ll be coming out on PC anyway.. why waste the money.
@ChefSean2006
Dude if you think Halo is the only reason to own a 360, I honestly don’t know what to say to you. Sony has you brainwashed real good. No chance of talking sense in to you.
Well these are the reasons I got my 360:
Halo 3
Gears of War
Ninja Gaiden 2
Mass Effect
Bioshock
Project Gotham 4
Forza Motorsport
Halo Wars
Fable 2
Too Human
Those are just the exclusives I want, not to mention all the cross platform games.
The only exclusives I want for PS3 are
MGS4
God of War 3
Gran Turismo 5
Killzone 2 needs to be rented before I buy after Killzone, Rachet and Clank isn’t my style, and Haze is iffy.
Not about being brainwashed, it’s about knowing what console will give me the most for my money.. Last time around it was the ps2, before that I enjoyed both N64 and psx. This time it just happens to be the ps3, free online gaming, free online network (coming soon), hard drive STANDARD (not left out and then realize the need to still use one for games), HD movie player built in, wifi built in, HDMI built in standard.
Hahahahahahahahahaha….*breathes* hahahahahahahaha…wow, 2.5? Sounds like a PS3 game’s rating. Maybe they mixed it up with their collective IQ.
@ChefSean2006
All of that is well and good. I won’t even take each of those points and argue against them because it is too easy. Last time I checked GAMES are what matter most. Your system can have all of the extra goodies and unproven tech crammed in there, but at the end of the day if you don’t have the GAMES that people want, it doesn’t matter. The winner of the next gen console war (or should I say leader, since I don’t see there being a clear cut winner, plenty of market share for all three companies to make a nice $)will supply the gaming community with the best GAMES! Not bluray, free on-line, etc. GAMES!!!! Right now Sony has a long way to go in that area.
Sure they have a long way to go, they’re a much harder system to develop for… they shot themselves in the foot in that aspect. There probably will be no winner in this gen of consoles.. the wii selling the numbers.. but will it have the games to keep it worth playing. So it’s either ps3 or 360. 360 has a head a years head start in consoles sold and number of games, if they can keep it up it’ll be pretty interesting to see where things are in a year or two. Probably with both consoles standing about even over a dead wii.

GO XBOT!
Theres a reason we bought our xbox and he hit it! Games. What is there thats so damn good on PS3? Nothing that I really want to play. The only game that I would want to is MGS4. Thats really not enough to make me go get a PS3. The only thing it’s really got going for it is that it looks cool. And say all you want about hardware and your non-existant online network, it don’t mean shit if a majority doesn’t want to play it.
So, are you guys gonna make up a bunch of unbelievable crap every time there is a triple A title for the 360? I guess you guys are gonna be busy writing phony reviews because great titles for the 360 just keep coming out. I can see how you have a lot of time being that there is nothing worth playing on the PS3. I look forward to your future bullshit reviews all the new great games coming out. They are definitely worth a laugh.
This website use to be funny but now they just say stuff to piss off people who own 360’s and rile up people who own PS3’s (SDF Victory, cmon thats something a 5 year wouldn’t even say, I know I have one). I waited in line 3 hours last night to get my copy and honestly I was disappointed with the first hour or two. But the game kicks it up to 11 once you jump in a warthog and the halo theme (the rock version) kicks in through your speakers. Next thing I know I had just played 3 hours straight and only stopped because of my stupid bladder. The game so far is as good if not better than what everyone other than the fags at this site have been saying. The hype is real Sony Fagboys, the hype is very real.
Halo 3 is halo – just a little bit better graphics (that’s ok, they are still better), much better AI, a hell of a lot more enemies and allies, incredible landscapes, well thought out maps, and some great heart pounding excitement. I’m only about a third done, but it’s been great so far. If you’ve enjoyed halo before, pick it up. If you haven’t ever been a fan, stay away. I give it an 8/10, myself – nothing ground breaking (it’s an fps), but it’s great in scale and at what it does. If you haven’t played Bioshock, do that first, as it’s the best game I’ve played in a long time.
ChefSean and XBOT (horrible name, btw, as you both appear to just be rabid 12 year old fanboys) – I own both, and while there is no doubt that the PS3 is better hardware and actually looks better (HDMI), at least the 360 isn’t just an expensive paperweight. MS went after exclusives singlemindedly, and it’s shown in the games. Warhawk is ok, Heavenly Sword is too short, and Lair… well… I’ve seen the video review on gametrailers. The 360 has games – lots of them, but the hardware is… shitty. My 360 died once (in 2 years) and my brother’s launch model died yesterday – just before the release of halo 3. But again – at least there are games to play on the 360. And Live is the best digital distribution network out there. The future may go to Sony – I personally hope there is great competition and that it’s not decided for a while (better games for us). So far, ChefSean, the best console for the money is the Xbox – these little wifi bluray gadgets just haven’t given me a really gaming experience yet. And Xbot, the PS3 has the ability to win this dumbass little war (and destroy the hopes and dreams of all you little fanboy soldiers), but they have to get a user base, a lower price, and real exclusives. ‘Cuz right now only MGS4 looks good to me.
@ ChefSean2006
“and why is it that all xbox fans can think of when trying to insult ps3 owners is “enjoy liar.. I mean lairâ€.”
Nobody told ps2.5 /w Blu-Ray addon -haters that there were such a high demand to insult you in new and innovative ways. (Seems like that liar-lair did the trick, since you posted a reply)
eg.
PS3 is the best console of the current generation! Just look how many kids with cancer it’s making happy. Where are the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii? They must hate kids with cancerz!!!1
http://kotaku.com/gaming/folding@home/ps3-dominates-foldinghome-246543.php
Do you see something familiar? (Change title to: PS3 cures cancer, Xbox 360 causes it)
btw. Playstation 3 is/was meant to last for 10 years or more. That means that it’s the console for this and the next generation. Let’s just see how the Xbox 0.5 (Wii) and the Xbox 1.5 (360) will do.
Hype has claimed many victims.
The Star Wars prequels.
The Matrix sequels.
Jesus.
And today, hype claimed a new victim. The gaming community waited eagerly for SDF’s review of Halo 3. Based on their previous product – the Bioshock review – their Halo 3 review was all-but-guaranteed to be at least as funny, if not more so.
Unfortunately, expectations were not met. The review barely elicited a chuckle. Riding on the success of their BioShock review, it just felt as though no real love (hate?) was put into it. We’d heard it all before.
Thus, I take it upon myself to write the Review that Should Have Been. Call it SDF fanfic, if you will.
The SDF review that should have been:
http://www.ps3nix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2543
Why bother with getting a PS3 to play Haze and UT3? The PC versions will be unarguably superior with the mouse and keyboard set up than the skill-less auto-aimed PS3 controls, the better graphics, sound and modding abilities. Say… isn’t the PS3’s online service still not up yet?
I’m too busy playing Halo to read all of this right now, but let me tell you, that this game is game of the year material.
I wonder when it will come out for Ps3. That’s what I’m assuming, since a Sony website is reviewing after all…oh it isn’t? Oh that’s too bad…oh well, better luck next year. Maybe MGS4 will be the first Ps3 game to NOT be a disappointment, lol.
What I don’t get is why a PS3 website is even reviewing xbox 360 games haven’t. Perhaps deliver news for your own console, From what I see this website has more attempts to dis the 360 than actual news or updates for its own console. Its almost like your trying to convince yourself that Halo 3 is a huge failure which it clearly is not.

Whats the big diference between Halo 3 and Resistance?
PS I THOUGH THIS REVIEW WAS SUPPOSED TO BE “UNBIASED”
JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, IT HAD BIAS WRITTEN ALL OVER ITS UGLY FACE.
Thats a review? Dude, stop talking about 360!!! Give us PS3 news…
Oh and you guys hyped that Halo 3 review for nothing… It’s not even a review. It’s not even a page long. Back to PS3 news please…
I’m glad SDF is unafraid to bring the first and only completely unbiased review of Halo 3. Keep up the good work guys.
[...] Defense Force review halo 3 Sony Defense Force – Playstation 3, Playstation 2, Playstation Portable, Playstation Network
A derr, Cell shade, A derr bluray, A der HDMI, A der PSthrizzle. This “review” is retarted, which i dont understand why a slavestation website is even attemptning to write reviews for an xbox 360 game. SOnys “Slavestation 3″ has how many games that broke sales records in preorders alone? last time i counted it was like…none. Call me an xbot if you want, i know what console gets me the most game for my buck, and thats the 360. I dont see any rave reviews on any PS3 games (other than the reviews on this website). Kinda funny how you give a game that has an average score of like 4.5/10 a 10/10 here. which brings me to my next question, is this supposed to be a joke site? nobody has ever answered this question yet so i’ll ask again. I just got my copy of Halo 3, and i love it, single player is just starting to pick up with the storyline, and the online multiplayer is everthing i hoped it could be. So to all the Slavestation allies, go fuck yourself, and have fun playing Lair while i play Halo 3. noobs
a 2.5 on SDF always equals a 9.5 in the real world of gaming =)
ut3 is not exclusive
and haze i havent even heard of
i like that well snuck in “generic pc shooter”
i also liked how the halo 4 person coop is apparently laggy but nooo, that resistance 40 person free for all will go swimmingly especially on a wireless router, kuz everyone knows, network speed comes from processing power, not ISP
an interesting review
but nothing can make me buy a ps3
[...] (thanks to Blu-ray and a real map editor) you can
I totally agree with halo3kicksSDFass in every aspect of his comment, and his name. You guys are just sad that Xbox 360 AND Halo 3 have owned you guys in the console war. It’s not a competition. Sony sucks. I saw an interview with the head marketing man at Sony, and he was almost crying because he said the sales on the psp and ps3 were so bad
I’m sorry that ps3 sucks! and all of your games! and nobody gives two shits about bluray! HALO NATION FOR LIFE. BLACKLIST ME FROM THIS WEBSITE IF YOU WANT BUT YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT HALO 3 AND ALWAYS WILL BE. I’M JUST SORRY YOU PUSSIES DON’T HAVE THE GUTS TO ADMIT ITS AN AMAZING GAME AND HAVE FUN AND PLAY IT LIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD!
I’m not sure what strikes me as funnier, the obvious bias of the review (Halo 2.5?) or that Sony Defense Force is now playing and rating 360 games. I guess if I didn’t have enough PS3 games to review, I’d be playing 360 games too.
Sony Defense Force gave Halo 3 a bad score? Color me shocked! That’s like the Iranian National Newspaper saying Jews are evil, or a copy of Pravda declaring Capitalism to be the root of all evil.
This website is obviously. I refuse to believe that there are people this fucked up in this world.
Here’s the definitive way to tell if a game is good. If it’s on the PS3 and SDF gave it a 10, well, that doesn’t tell you anything. They give everything a 10. If it’s on 360 and they even bother to review it, that means they’re afraid of it and it’s awesome. (Thank you QualityJeverage)
Hmm. I was expecting a -7 as a score, and a comparison to Atari graphics. That would have been funny, SDF.
FAIL, FAIL.
Pure genius! You guys are hilarious. I got linked to you from the message boards on the Microsoft Defense Force. At least we have Shane Bettenhausen!
Shouldn’t a site that fawns over the PS3 review mostly PS3 games? It’s almost as if there aren’t any games to play for the….. oh yeah, nevermind.
For sanity’s sake, I hope you eventually get some games to play because these delusional reviews can’t be healthy.
It’s funny that all you can do is rip on Bioshock and Halo 3. Both scored a 96 on metacritic. In case you were wondering, it’s a website that puts all of the well balanced, professional viewpoints together in one score, called a “metascore†(your website is obviously not listed due to your extreme bias). These two games have come within two years of the Xbox 360’s launch and outscore any exclusive PS3 OR PS2 game to date. Have fun with those facts.
@ ChefSean2006
“yes, there is some minor button mashing, but that just goes to show the extent of the 360’s pile of aborted fetuses they call game”
What the hell does that mean anyway?? You got you a good edumacation there….
wow…. a 2.5…..
sheesh that is one biased review. that 2.5 you just gave actually counts as a 9.5 or higher in the real gaming world
even metacritic gave halo a rating of 96 as an average from other sites. still not convinced then go check it out yourself. ur all just sad that all the bad games are on the PS3 and the good games are on the 360. microsoft already won the console war and you all dont want to admit it. see ya around losers 
I don’t understand why it’s Halo 3’s fault you need an Xbox Live Gold subscription to play online games online. Microsoft even arranged for free 48-hour passes to XBL gold to let people try it out – which based on the fact that well over a million games of Halo 3 were played in the first 24 hours since launch (and that’s launch in Australia/New Zealand, at which point the game had only officially been launched in the US where the biggest penetration of 360 consoles is for around 6 to 8 hours) I would say it worked.
While I kind of enjoy seeing what kind of bullshit you guys can pull out your ass, you may have a slight (very slight) point about the graphics. I did expect more visually, but in my world, gameplay rules over all, so I’m happy with my purchase.
I do plan on buying a PS3 around tax time, but they still need more exclusives, because the ones they have don’t do it for me. MGS4 will be a classic, no doubt, but I have a strong feeling KZ2 will suck regal cock, much like the 1st.
So with that said, keep up the hate, fellas, it’s not like you have relationships to tend to or friends to hang out with anyway.
On a red-ringed 360 too, frickin’ beautiful review.
I dont know, lemme guess what your UNbiased review of KZ2 is gonna be: 10/10 amazing game
I dont know if im more surprised you just paid 60 bucks for a game to give it a 2.5 or if you guys really need to defend the piece of fucking dogshit company known as sony
and RFOM sucked ass for the record, and all ps3 online is laggy as fuck
trust me, im not a retard
Im at the second mission and the only thing I can say is this game is fucking awesome!!! And I’ve never seen an enemy AI like this!!!
1) how did you review a game on a rrod system? So you either own 2 360’s or you haven’t played it yet…
2) Correct me if i’m wrong, but “Game Disc” printed on the game inferrs that SDF bought either the Legendary or Limited Edition.
3) I agree, the review was disappointing. I was expecting a better comedy piece, but man, are you even trying anymore, or are you just resting on the laurels of your hilarious lair review?
ha ha ha ha… Hilarious!
Okay, the bitching about Lair’s supposed broken controls can officially cease, thanks so much:

@ 7th
Except that doesn’t ACTUALLY WORK. Try fighting dragons controlling like that. ice drags move far too quickly. Face it, Lair is crap.
I’m sure this will set all you Sony fanboys straight. BTW Warhawk and HS will never see these numbers even if you combine there total sales.

Graphics are bad it should be Halo 2 expansin pack and there is no reason to keep playing the game after you finish the game a first time, sorry i just think if you whan to talk to your friends and/or get together go have a bbq and drink some beer
@PS3up
That can be said about every videogame. Im not going to defend Halo 3 on this comment but if you think playing games should come second to socializing then it doesnt matter what the game is or what system its on.
Hey buddy, mind if I say something? ok…
FIVE HUNDRED NINETY NINE DOLLARS.
I don’t think you have much right to talk, now, do you?
This is what I read from the review :
Blah Blah Blah HALO 2.5 SUCK blah blah blah BECAUSE THE INTERNET SAID SO blah blah blah blah I’M A PS3 FANBOY blah blah blah.
Wow this review is much like this website and the Ps3 it’s full of BS and no one really buying it.
@uberdave:
The video SHOWS him battling Dargons, both in the sideways crash attack, firing at them from a distance, and in the “mano-a-mano” attacks, and they all worked perfectly. Why don’t you try actually watching the video, or better yet, actually playing the game.
There are absolutely no control problems with Lair, period. The only people who have a hard time playing it are those who think they have to violently wave the controller around like it was a wiimote.
Lair rules im still playing it and yeah halo 3 sucks even though it sold 6 billion copies. Why dont people like Lair? it is so great, back to Lair
@7th
there are issues with Lair, a game is not ingrossing if all you are doing is slowly moving the controller side to side, there shouldn’t be a delay like what is present, it should control like a wii game.
But it doesn’t, its sluggish, infuriatingly akward when fighting multiple enemies, slow, buggy and has an infuriating frame-rate. Its a bad game
if you like it then go ahead and play it, i’m personally not going to touch it again, just accept that people think its a piece of shit
Lol, I played lair for five miniutes before I went back to Halo3 for nine hours.
“” Ahh yes “believeâ€â€¦ the new $10 million dollar marketing slogan for Halo 2.5 stolen shamelessly from a video game message board. “”
lmao
What I like most about this post is the comments, specially the 360 babies who can’t tell a joke to save their lives and take everything so seriously. What they don’t seem to realize is that the 360 is already at it’s prime, soon games that were previously made in directx 9 will be directx10 and… the 360 does not and can not support directx10 completely, it will only be able to handle a dumbed down version. Even worse is that even right now you are seeing games limited by the 360 hardware. Gears of War for instance has more stuff for the computer that the 360 will never see because the 360 can no handle it.
Calm down, people!
This entire site is a fucking joke, nothing more.
2.5? wow, UR A JOKE
To all the 360 and wii owners who enjoy this very funny site, go to http://www.wii60.com for all your 360 and wii news and reviews.They also dont give every wii and 360 game a 10 out of 10 and game of the year nomination like some sites i know.
Wow,
After a punch in the face, with bad Halo 2.5 gameplay.
It finishes the you off with a swift kick in the balls, causing RRoD. Bad Xbox fanboys, don’t have better things to spend your mummy’s money?
dedicated servers? last time i played the mild game you call amazing (Resistance). our server was shut down along with 4 or 5 others because of people not being DEDICATED you stupid fucks.
I don’t get it. Why do you give terrible ratings to good games and good ratings to bad ones? Unless this happens to be sarcasm… if so, then LOL!
And I also have played four player co-op. It lags when it says LOADING…AREA which is three times a level. By the way Sony has never had good online, 40 player battles its too bad not enough people play to have said battles.
At clayphd
They have more stuff in computer because they waited longer to make it not beacuse they cant fit it. Dude seriously stop being a retard.
About 4,5 miljon PS3’s sold worldwide in a year…
About 1,5 miljon copies of Halo 3 sold in a day…
This means halo 3 sold 1 copy per 3 PS3’s in one frikkin’ day!! How many PS3 games can top that?
Besides that, there is no game worth buying a PS3 at the moment. You can give some of these a 10/10 score but jeez…. what are you gonna rate MGS4 when it comes out? Compared to Lair it should get a 456988/10 to make up for it. Or do you really think lair is as good as MGS4? Whahahahaha
ROFL
Lair and that stupid six axis system that doesn’t even work
Stop making fools outta yourselves! I figured that the review of Bioshock should have teached you a lesson, but no, it just shows how stupid you guys are!
Come back when you have a PS3 game that out sells Halo 3 (ow that means 1/3 of the PS3 owners must buy that game) and you get permission to speak again.
What a sick excuse of a website this is, I hate fanboy stuff, and you just pointed out again why I do and what kind of people (yes sony people) invented it in the first place.
I forgot to mention that having 40 players online in a game being possible is fun, but only when you actually have 40 people playing the game online at the same time
I had to register just to finally say something on this site. With that said, here’s my 2 cents:
I don’t care about the console wars, whoever gives me the best games for my money gets my money. Last generation, that was Sony. The PS2 had SO many great titles, excellent controls, online gaming on consoles was still not very good so I didn’t care about it, and aside from my love for Nintendo’s first party titles like Zelda and Mario, all my favorite series were PS exclusive.
Now, Microsoft offers me the most bang for my buck. I’ve grown to love online gaming and XBox Live is by far the best of the consoles online services. It’s not perfect, but I’m happy with it.
I don’t own a PS3 since they cost too much and don’t offer any games I want that I can’t get on a system I already own. I’m planning on getting one once it changes those two things.
I just want the creator(s) of this site to know that they disgust me and are actually making me HATE Sony and their PS3. Your reviews are COMPLETE BULLSHIT. I don’t own a PS3 so I can’t speak for Lair and Heavenly Sword, but I haven’t really heard anything good about them from UNBIASED sources. As for this game, Halo 3, I own it and love it. You’re 2.5/10 is just a BIASED Sony fanboy dream. Sure the gameplay is un-original and the story is pretty basic, but its still a lot of fun. And thats what gaming is about. FUN. NOT the best graphics, NOT the most expensive hardware, NOT Blu-Ray. Just plain FUN.
If Halo 3 is so terrible and the public has lost interest in it SDF, tell me how it managed to make $170 Million dollars in just its first 24 hours?
Get over it, you’re precious PS3 is still just an over-priced and unnecessary piece of hardware.
…and you’re the MOST BIASED load of s*** I’ve ever seen.
MAN U GUYS SUCK BALLS REALLY U NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT BECAUSE U GUYS SUCK AT HALO SO U NEED TO TRASH IT WELL U GUYS SUCK MAN WHY DONT U GUYS GO TYE A HANGMANS KNOT AND STAND ON A CHAIR AND GO JUMP OFF SO U CAN END YOUR PATHETIC LIVES AND LIKE MOST OTHER PEOPLE I ONLY MADE THIS ACCOUNT TO TELL U GUYS U SUCK SO GO TO HELL
Man seriously, almost everything you said in your review is wrong. i loved how you tried to downplay the 4 person co-op by saying it was laggy. That would be a problem with your connection then cause I’ve had it play start to finish without so much as a hiccup. Does it make you feel good dissing good games just because you can’t play them on your system of choice while praising mediocre games like lair because it is? This is the supposed to be the Sony Defense Force, right? Well this kind of bullshit is the worst kind of defense you could give.
Shut the FUCK up.
After playing Halo 3 at my brother’s house, I’d sadly have to admit, its the same boring concept as the original I have on PC, which I got bored with in less than a month. I wish people would just admit, Halo isn’t that great of a game. It is still fun, definity online, but it’s definity and will never be a winner in my book over other shooters like Ghost Recon, and Red Orchestra.
I find it hilarious how, upon registering with this site for a bit of a laugh, I can’t even choose my own password. Tells you something, eh? Oh yes, about Halo 3: I’d just like to ask why Saved Films and Screenshots and bungie.net’s new system for file sharing weren’t included. Is it because they’re good and Halo 3 is too feature-packed for your fanboy brains to comprehend? Thought so.
SDF has nothing to review on the PS3 side, so now they have to review 360 games. must be bummer there nothing to do with the PS3 other than watching talladega nights and folding @home.
I love how all the PS3 games reviewed get a 10, despite bigger company reviews being utter shite for them, but somehow, Bioshock, Halo 3 and Mass Effect are all crap? Wow ok, wake up and smell the news, Those three games completely own all the PS3’s games at this moment in time
PS3’s CRAP!
that may just be the most bias and skewed review that i have ever read jeeze
Hmmm, let me just show you guys a little something SDF.
In the about SDF section of your website you say “The original Defense Force! Created on September 11, 2006 the Sony Defense Force (SDF) is back with a new look and a new site. It’s original intention was, and still is, to give honest news about all things Playstation. Since the launch of PS3 there has been a lot of F.U.D. (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) spread around the internet thanks to viral marketing campaigns from competitors. SDF is here to cut through the mess and give straight answers about the Playstation Platform.”
Where in that statement does is say you were going to continually bash the 360 and any games that come out exculsively for it. If you feel so obliged to make a website “to give honest news about all things Playstation” how about putting some news about your actual Console. Many people have said the exact same thing before me so mabe you should take the advice.
And as for the F.U.D. saying you have, well from what I’ve seen on this website… IT’S TOTALLY TRUE!
You have a great “Fear” for anything that puts your console to shame which is why you bag the 360 games so much in your reviews. You definitely have an Uncertaintanty about the success of you console, that is why you keep posting graphs of lame sales records and say that the 360 is “inferior” to try to convince yourselves that everything is okay. And of course you doubt the ability of other consoles.
And another point. So many times in your posts I have seen the word ‘unbiased’ used. Surely you must have got the definitions of unbiased and biased mixed up, because last time I checked the definition of biased is a prejudice in a general or specific sense, usually in the sense for having a preference to one particular point of view or ideological perspective, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU FUCKTARDS ARE DOING! I cannot believe the amount of time I have wasted writing this respose to your absolutely shitty website as you will probably just skim straight past this. But what you need to understand is that just because you call 360 games inferior and call the 360 inferior doesn’t mean that other people think the same way. I thought you would have learnt these simple life lessons in primamry school, but you obviously havn’t. That is most likely why your posts and reviews are totally shit, because you have the mindset of a child.
By the way, Inferior to what? Can’t be the PS3 because IT’S…FUCKING…SHIT!
Looking forward to see some of your fingerpaintings from the second grade posted on here soon.
Go Kill yourselves
Kinda ovious(i dont know how to spell it) that SDF would give a game thats not sony a low score.BOYCOTT!!This is a miediocore site and a miediocore consle with miediocore games(except for little big planet. that game looks fun)SDF i give you .5/10 for a terible site.BOYCOTT!!!If you have your head in the right place youll boycott.
One of the strangest things about this review is the fact that the disk in the picture is a special limited edition disk. So either SDF decided to buy a limited edition collectors edition game on an “inferior” console or this isn’t their picture and they have never actually played the game.
SDF was obviously paid off by microsoft to give halo 2.5 such a high score. this abomination of a game deserves to be in the negatives. u guys must be some major xbots to actually give halo 2.5 a score in the positive number. i would have been content with a 0, but 2.5? simply rediculous
