Is Nintendo reaching a turning point?

[Rosencrantz]

Indeed. Halo isn't that good.

Halo: Combat Evolved was serviceable. Halo 2 and 3 flushed it all straight to hell, but I must admit, with a head hanging in shame, that ODST interests me, if only because of the revert back to CE's health and weapons systems.

ODST was pretty good up until the trainwreck ending

no one cares about manface Dare and dickwad Buck
what the hell happened to Rookie?

Hell, what happened to the entire team? Romeo was close to dying, and Mickey had the most personality of that entire group, and Dutch was a badass, and they could have invested in an extra day to explain what happened to all of them once everything was said and done.
