this holiday season games, where is our Halo Killer?

So this holiday season I am picking up 11 games and I am stoked to finally have some good games to play. But we need a game to take on halo and I don't think Haze is going to cut it. R&C and Uncharted will be good but the big hitters Killzone 2 and Metal Gear are comming way later. there has been a serious drought of good games and I am excited for the future because for once there are more games I am excited to play on PS3 instead of 360!!!! I just wish they were comming sooner!!!

i meaning it more in the way of getting people to buy the system and get the hype swinged away from 360. we need that big hitter for that to happenLORDDICE1

Halo killer .. lol.

I'm sorry I just don't see why are you in the same stupid wagon where nothing else exists then a "good shooter".

It's probably just me, but I had more enjoyable time with Resistance then Halo series, or even my Half-Life 2 on PC.

Then again if you are still using that mentality of: "oh look at the score, it's a killer!" then nothing will change your one sided thinking.

Halo or especially Halo 3 is not a killer, it's a good game, a good FPS game. The only reason you're being so simple minded it's because you are brainwashed by Hype, Media and advertisement. Until you realise that, there is no such thing on PS3 as "Halo Killer" lol..

agree with u!! halo 3 is a good game but thats where it ends!! the rest is all hype!

for some reason halo is just massive, I dont think we could ever have a game as hyped as halo, I cant believe how much it sells so quickly, it has a massive cult following, And I just dont think ps3 fans would ever get that hyped over a game, we are different type of gamers to massive 360 fans

I love you man....say it again!!! lol...just kidding.

Couple of things that should be said for the TC.

Nothing is going to be a halo killer because no matter what games come out, it won't slow down sales of another game. Second, no game will sell and be more popular than halo, come on it's halo what other game do they have midnight releases for? I can't recall, the last one I remmeber was halo 2. Anyways, halo is the best in it's class so not killzone, haze or anyother fps will come close to halo's supieriorness, including the amazing mp, the single player campaign, weapons, races, vehciles, anything and everything abot halo is amazing.

PS3 is expected to get some great things but I truly am really excited about metal gear and Killzone, I hope killzone doens't turn out like the first one.. They hyped it so much and it turned out to be a semi decent game. Also by the time they fix the servers for Warhawk, hopefullly I can jump from halo to warhawk both in my opinion are goty. Hard to choose which one. Bioshock was amazing too but I don't think it's goty material..

Resistance? Resistance was so plain and boring.. Nowthat was a generic shooter. Nothign special at all.. Half likfe I'll agree with you that it's on the same level as halo maybe just maybe a little better but that's only cause it was on pc. But resistancewas overhyped for nothing. Chronicles of Riddick was a far better game then this. HAlo set the rules for fps shooters. Tehy came up with the whole scoring system, integrated vehicles and multiplayer in the same maps flawlessly.Innovative guns, story etc what didresistance have? Anyways, halo killsresistance

Nice argument, however to many uninformed statements. Firstly I never said that Resistance is better then Halo generally, if you read properly my post it stated "in my opinion" it does. So that global argument is dismissed.

Second Halo setup only one aspect of innovation in shooters. Rechargeable shield/health.

FPS was not revolutionised by Halo, First Person genre belongs to PC market. Deux Ex, Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Half-Life, etc.

Until you realise Halo is the first FPS game on "Console" done right (Without any others to compete) and it's Only a Good Game, nothing more or less you will remain with your "Halo owns all" mentality.

I'm not here to argue with you, this is done in System Wars, not on my PS3 forum. For the record I love resistance more then Halo, and i had played both of them. Again, it's my point of view.

i meaning it more in the way of getting people to buy the system and get the hype swinged away from 360. we need that big hitter for that to happenLORDDICE1

lets be honest...anyone who's buying a 360 just for Halo...has done so already or will within the next few weeks, not during the holidays

I think, when people say "Halo Killer", they aren't referring to that the game will be better than Halo itself. But, they mean that it will sell much faster than the halo games. Hence, this is why people compare MGS4 with Halo.

I mean, if you want to say which looks better, plays better; i think Call of Duty 4 has more potential of being a better First Person Shooter than Halo3 is. But, i also have to agree with some of the people here also; Halo is an over hyped game with a lot of fans buying it.

halo3 is for halo fans, period. It will be a good profit for M$, but won't do much good in exploring their user installation base.lhbchen

Agreed!! That's why M$ is spending so much money to push Halo into the mainsteam, becuase they know that everybody who has a 360 isn't Halo crazy. I

LOL...part of what say about the inovation of halo is true, but in todays FPS those are standard feature's...therefore making halo a standard shooter, which isn't a bad thing. Warhawk is a good example.

in 2008 (2nd year of ps3 life) i want to know what microsoft will show to kill mgs4, kz2, white knight story, little big planet... By that time Gow 3 will be announced.

in 2009 i want to know what microsoft will show to kill FF13 and FF13 versus.

As for Resistance being boring, there is a far greater variety in enemy compared to Halo. The only place I give Halo 3 the advantage is the map editor and replay feature.

The Orange Box and Unreal Tournament III are both more than enough to prevent me from missing Halo.

Those are 2 super fantastic AAA quality shooters that will keep me happy for a while. I'm going to start with The Orange Box first and then pick up Unreal Tournament III later.

your Halo killer is nowhere because you do not have one.

This thread (the first Halo Killer thread I have seen) is what doesn't belong in gaming. It creates an unwanted drama and unnecessary hype of all games you fanboys identify to be the next "Halo Killer." When the hyped up game doesn't do well or come close to being a "Halo Killer", you become the laughing stock of the other systems fanboys.

Why can't Halo just be a great game for the 360 and any other game that comes out with great gameplay potential just be its own game, not a Halo Killer. Haze should be Haze. Killzone 2 should just be Killzone 2. Any FPS shooters or games that will come out should be their own game. Not a Halo Killer!

do i have to see halo topics and ads everywhere ? gezz ... i don't even see whats the big deal about that game .. over-rated crap with large amount of marketing expense ... to drive people like you to care.

Deviltrigger

u gotta wate till 2009? every 1 said that about 2008, until ninja gaiden 2 was shown. im sure 360 will get sumthin

I cant wait until FF13/verus, GT5, KZ2 and MGS4 come out, i dont even care if there Halo killers and i dont think its tat important, and Gears of War is a better game than Halo 3LiLCes909

LOL....you are right!!!! Geow is my HALO killer.

Did you even play Halo 3?

I cant wait until FF13/verus, GT5, KZ2 and MGS4 come out, i dont even care if there Halo killers and i dont think its tat important, and Gears of War is a better game than Halo 3LiLCes909

honestly i dont think the games that we have coming out this holiday will kill halo 3. halo is just too big of a franchise, the game got huge in a very short amount of time, which is just insane. The only way i think that we could of could of killed halo is if we had MGS4 and FF13 coming out this holiday season.lionelb22

Halo game got huge in a short amount of time, yes, but it's not insane or unbelievable. Because when Halo 1 came out, it's the ONLY good game that I bought for my xbox. And then Halo 2 came out.. and it can't even remotely compare to the awe I felt about Halo 1, because Halo 2 was just that.. Halo 1.5.

Now Halo 3 came out... and it brought... nothing new to the table.

That's the problem with Halo series and many other game series... nothing new...

The games that gave me the moment of awe are as following, these games are ranked in order:

FF7 (sorry, never played ff6, so this is on my top list)

Metal Gear 1

Jedi Knights 1

Zone of Enders 2

Supreme Commander

Original Half Life

Halo 1

There are maybe a couple more, but that's about it. Many other games are worth playing, but not ground breaking. Notice that I didn't include any new generation games in the list (except supreme commander if you think it's a new generation game), because frankly, the new generation games haven't brought anything NEW really.

For hardcore FPS deathmatch fans, UT3 will be better. KILLING SPREE!deadkingdg
