360 with Halo, Forza, Gears.... AAAE series King in those genre's ?

[QUOTE="nethernova"]AAA series king? Sounds desperate. Like seriously.OhSnapitz

:P This just kinda hit me and is off the top of my head so I'm open to info I likely didn't consider.

Back before Halo 3 shipped, SW had some lengthy discussions on what makes a series AAA and Cassey settled it by saying a franchise needs 3 AAA's in a row to be considered a AAA series in SW so with that in mind...

With Halo having 5 AAA's in a row and Forza with 3 AAA's in a row, IF, see Big IF there but if Gears 3 scores AAA...

Will this mean 360 has the only FPS, Racing & TPS AAA franchises this gen. :shock:

IF so, that's pretty impressive don't ya think ?

Just wondering.

PS, I have got to be mistaken, I just know it, so just remind me what I forgot or got wrong.

Halo is not a AAA franchiseand it certainly didn't get 5 AAAs in a row.

Gears of War has only had 2 games... wait until its had a third and possibly a spin off or a 4th game or whatever.

Even if we take the average of all Halo games its still not above 9.0

9.7 + 9.4 + 9.5 + 6.5 + 9.0 + 9.5 = 8.93 :P lol thats so close though :)

Also TC, this could be said about some of the PS3s franchises (Possibly Wii/PCs too)

For example. LittleBigPlanet = AAA franchise. And hm, Gow I guess.

Oh and if you're counting games from this gen only you could add so much more.

MGS4 = 10 = Metal Gear = AAAA franchise mfw? :twisted:

MGS wasn't exclusive to the PS family because of ports to other systems and LBP doesn't have 3 titles yet (if we go by Casey's idea that is:P).

GOW isn't AAA as well because of Ghost of Sparta so basically, the only "true" AAA franchise that falls under Casey's idea thus far, that is exclusive I believe is Forza.:P

Now there is a "AAAE series King"?

Also for those straw grasper's :P trying to say Halo Wars is somehow a part of the FPS series know as Halo... :lol: :lol: Try Harder. 8)

One more thing, those saying something to the effect like, I'm a desperate lem for making this thread; It's frickin SW and as stated in the OP, the notion just hit me and since this is System Wars, it seemed more than worthy to post and see what other gamers thought... Sheeeeeesh, all the denial of these fine, fine AAA 360 FPS, Drivers & TPS franchises sounds allot like.... Insecure damage controlling FTL.. :?

These are the kind of threads you get when there are no games on the horizon for your system of choice.sakura_Ex

I bet the 360 will see more game releases in 2011 than the PS3, just like it has in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010. Between multiplatform games, Arcade games, console exclusive games, and true exclusive games, it always has more to offer than the PS3.

So I'm hoping that once you were lost but now have been found. :lol:

A lot of sequals of AAA ratingsget AAA status just by name alone. Halo ODST and Reach do not deserve to be AAA, maybe A or AA. I love Halo but I'm truthful as well. Gears 1 was only AA IMO, but Gears 2 gets the AAA status because of the hype. Personally I think that SOME of these AAA games don't deserve it while games with lower rankings deserve better. For example, COD: MW is a AA game while MW2 get's a AAA but only deserves AA status.

Uncharted 2 is very deserving. Actually this gen I may be inclined to say that it's one of the only games that deserve it along with Halo 3.

This is all opinionated anyway, as the GS scores are based off of the reviewer's personal opinion, just like my scores are personal opinions.

But I don't see the logic in that.:? Also are you going by GS scores or Metacritic? Because ODST ahhhh whatever.:P

As for a true AAAE exclusive franchise thus far, (if we go by what Casey believes:P), it's Forza. God of War can also be seen as AAAE franchise but there is Ghost of Sparta that brings it down and LBP doesn't have a third entry thus far.:(

Anyways, so really man, can be a part of the secret services too?:P

[QUOTE="sanim02"]

[QUOTE="SecretPolice"]Hmm, seems perfectly understandable :? A individual game can be multiplat in the series but seeing as that THIS thread is based on the SERIES and not a individual game; The SERIES is indeed exclusive unless you know of a Gears 2 & soon Gears 3 and Halo 3, ODST & Reach being playable on another system :o if so, please do tell as I'm all ears.

You sneaky devil you.:P Oh I'll get in on this secret organization that is supposed to be a secret yet a lot of people know of this secret organization despite the fact that it's a secret, mark my words!:o

As for your flawed logic(:P), alright, no biggie it's just video games at the end of the day.:P I personally don't count ODST and Wars as a part of the Halo universe (I see ODST as an extention to 3 and Wars is an entirely different game) but it is what it is, they aren't AAAE titles (unless you go by ODST's bizarre GS review:P).
