ROFL.

Technically... piracy is bad. Dishonest and all that.

Morality aside... Ha Ha.

I don't like your signature, Dsio.

Screw Halo 3? GTFO NOW!

=(

Side note; pirate copies won't be able to play on LIVE. So yeah. No point downloading if you're missing out on the best part of H3.

At lest the pirate versions aren't scratched....This may be an MS trick! Anyone with a working copy...is a pirate!! ":O}

I wonder, does this game attract a particular age group?

there will ALWAYS been another gran turismo....

new cars will come out... and they will look more realistic

halo will eventually run out of material....and microsofts big flagship will be gone,


SPOILER ALERT!!!!! :the ending was dumb, you think its over but its not...i SWEAR you see master chiefs helmet on a stick or a gun or something on the left edge of the screen when they are having their little ceremony, THEN hes alive, wtf.... they will make another game, and it will just be another fps with nothing special or cutting edge to it...

gran turismo however, is the definition of a driving game, if they can ever include a great damage model, BETTER than forza, they will be ever better

Historically, GT has never included Damage models due to licencing issues.

They have a point. If it did have realistic damage, it would be impossible to get an American car from one end of the track to the other with being left with a twisted wreck. The only way to use a Viper, Camaro, Corvette, Mustang, or Cobra is to bounce it off of stuff, and hope that the track doesn't have corners.
