Must say I totally disagree. People love these sequels because the basis or root of the game itself remains the same. If the formula is changed too much its not what people loved. As far as galaxy goes the experience is MUCH different. This must have been a critique for the sake of being contrary because this assertion is way off the mark.
Halo 3 is a polished gem of a science-fiction shooter. But that is all it is. It has suitably spruced-up graphics, and some of its new online features are welcome additions. But it is a refinement of the time-tested Halo formula rather than a daring attempt to provide a new sort of experience. That’s enough to generate hundreds of millions of dollars, but it is not enough to inspire.
