Every time I see new Halo 3 footage, I struggle to see the real improvement over Halo 2. I can see upgraded textures and skins and such, but otherwise I cannot discern much difference. If only there were some sort of...comparison video for the two games available through..say, GameTrailers.

While the HD version (see link below) shows more detail, doesn't seem to be too too much improvement. Then again, the Halo series has never been about graphics. How else could Halo 2 have scored 10s despite the awful texture pop-in? Reviewers were far too stunned by the innovative gameplay to notice, of course. Good luck figuring out when I started and stopped being sarcastic there. It's a mystery! Michael Fahey
