XBOX Gears of War vs Halo 3

[USUF]

Since its release gears of war has build up a huge amount of hype,it even beat Halo 2 for the most played game on Xbox live,and because of it, the membership on Xbox live has increased to a statrling 80%!!!!...i think Halo 3's problem is not to push back the PS3..it might very well be Gears of War...Your thoughts???

 

[devilscallmedad]

I have no idea what you are trying to say, Halo 3 will simply be the biggest game of 2007

 

[USUF]

Yeah it will be..but im talking about how much hype it will biuld against Gears of War..i hope its not less than gears of war and i hope bungie dont screw this one up in the campaign mode

naah, i for one think H3 will be a bit disppointing in comparison to Gears.

 

[devilscallmedad]

hype? not a chance halo 3 will sell like 2 million copies in its first week. As a game? not a chance its BUNGIE

 

[Chandoo]

isnt halo like the only good thing bungie has ever done ?

 

[devilscallmedad]

nope halo is the only popular game they have ever done, they made other critically accalimed games Marathon, Myth and about 4-5 others but they were exclsuive Apple developers so the games had a small audience.

 

[Chandoo]

[devilscallmedad]

some really odd names there lol, halo's probably the only one i recognize.

 

[USUF]

wow..you guys talked alot about this while i wasnt here..and yeah..halo IS the only game that bungie has done good at...

 

[devilscallmedad]

halo IS the only game that bungie has done good at...

umm NO, Bungie has developed critically accalimed and cult classics like Marathon and Myth as well. Halo is their best game and the main reason their earlier games aren't very popular is due to a the small Mac userbase.

 

[USUF]

thats exactly wht im saying...bungie has only been popular cuz of halo and thats why their other games arent very popular among people...i mean, bungie's whole website is filled with halo

 

[Chandoo]

and thats just it isnt it, bungie is because of halo, no one even remembers their old games, probably myst only lol

 

[radd]

who cares about history. they make halo and that makes them one of the most recognized developers around.

as for gears vs halo 3 ? lol you must be kidding.

halo >>>>>> gears. its not even a contest !

naah, i for one think H3 will be a bit disppointing in comparison to Gears.

yeah yeah mr extreme fanboi , we all know how much you love gears.

 

[Chandoo]

er.. what does that have anything to do with fanboyism ?
