Anyone playing Halo 3 beta? I have mixed feelings about it. Not that is crappy, but feels old in many ways.

Anyway it's not Bungie's fault: all sequels of multiplayer games are mostly a carbon copy of the previous chapters. Hardcore gamers are a bunch of conservatives. Problem is that sequels just adds some more weapons, maps and small things, often breaking the original games.
So progamers continue to play the old games (counterstrike 1.6 is still more played then Source, for example).
Now I'm praying for Starcraft 2.
