I'm 100% Halo 3 will score 9.5, while Metroid Prime 3 will score 8.5 because gamespot is anti-wii, but if Prime 3 is really better than echoes then it will score 9.0.

Still prime 3 will be better

[QUOTE="Timstuff"]They are two completely different games. Halo 3 will obviously have superior production values and deliver a real shooter experience. But I am a Metroid fan, so obviously I'm going to be more interested in Metroid Prime 3. I survived this long without Halo and have been just fine, but missing out on Metroid Prime 3 is definately going to be an endurance test for me.Ehlohim

A real shooter experience is a subjective thing. I find focusing on online deathmatches to be shallow, but a robustadventure is the real "experience" for me.

I agree, I did the frag fest thing over a decade ago and have come to prefer the story/adventure route.

Metriod is Metroid,

It has always been great, a few minor change is not gonna change the over all feel of the game.

Metroid is not broken they dont need to fix it.

considering the Nintendos advance to the nex gen, soley lies on their gimmick controls, with last gen hardware.

MP3 might as well be released on the GC because really, it's whole generation behind.

Halo 3 also isn't really that much different from its previous games.

Better AI, better graphics, bigger battles, 4 player Coop,

It's Halo and it'll always play like Halo,

why try to reinvent yourself by throwing in gimmick wiggly joystick?

because you lack the technical advances like the other consoles?

What about the gameplay? It didn't seem to change much.But fine if you going that way, then MP3 has a new control layout which seem it going to be better MP1 and 2, has more voice acting, and better graphics.

Because system war polls have always been critically acclaimed for being the premiere source of all your

answers.

Most posters here on system wars fall into the niche market. Perhaps there are actually more people interested in a niche market title?

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]when i say content and fun factor, i thats not complete true. Halo 1 had an excellent story and an excellent single player. It didnt get AAA for mp it got it for the single player. Halo 2 had a good story as well, just a bad ending. the campaign itself was a bit of a letdown.

Halo 3 will fix that.alexin_05

sorry but everybody likes halo for its incredible multiplayer, I'm a hardcore halo fan but I have to say that without its multiplayer it would be as gears of war, a great game but still an average game

wow Halo owns the snot out of Gears story. DO i play the Halo 2 MP alot yes. But Halo isnt a one trick horse like Gears and Unreal(great MP bad SP). It delivers in both areas. Not the detail and depth of Metroid Prime. but thats cause there both different games. But Halo has an excellent story and single player. Just because you dont enjoy it and more people like the MP more doesnt negate the fact the series has been critically acclaimed for its single player as well.

P.S. Stupid glitchspot stop messing with me.

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]oh wow i swear both sides are ignorant to each game.

From playing the beta. Halo 3 plays nothing like Halo 2. Its got a mix of 1 with a bit of a twist. For one the autoaim is toned down a ton(big complaint for hardcore shooter fans), the equipment has added a new strategy, bringing back the assualt rifle has made the game much more balanced, the maps are more dynamic in nature. and thats just beta. We still havent seen the extra vehicles, extra maps, and the fun factor of forge at work.

Through in a single player that has been worked on to death. Id say Halo 3 has made enough changes as well as Metroid Prime 3 to warrent instant AAA scores IMO. which i believe both will get.Sir-Marwin105
I'm not saying Halo 3 will be bad. It's just that he was saying no changes have been made to the Metroid formula. I played the beta, and tweaking the auto aim and bringing back the Assault Rifle did change the formula. You know what. I'm gonna stop. I haven't played MP3 yet, so I don't know how much has changed. So I'm just going to with-hold my opinion until September 25.

MP 3 is going to be out 08/27/07 thats what 14 days from now. anyway both will be excellent and just looking at vids of MP3 its changed the formula alot as well IMO. neither of the 2 games are just rehashing what they did last gen.

I dunno, I wouldn't call myself a niche gamer. I play really healthy variety of games. There's a ton of Wii owners out there and they're probably starving for a great game right about now.

the reason is the majority of gamers dont go on GS forums. so if MP3 is winning this poll thats great but dont let it fool you into thinking its more popular. i mean to nintendo loyalists its enormously popular, but not to the mainstream.

Both look like amazing games and while I'll certainly be picking up both I'm more interested in MP3.

I own both Halo 1 and 2 both I have always thought that MP was better. So I am looking forward to MP3 a lot more than Halo.

Haha, I guess you had to "be there".

I didn't really play the first Metroid game, and still don't particularly like it (having come from Super Metroid, it just seems like a crapped on version), although without it, there'd be no others. However, having completed the rest of the Metroid series (including the Return of Samus, which was a fairly grueling ordeal), I can tell you that the Metroid series is one of the finest in the business, and one of the very few to maintain the high level of quality it started out with. Everyone hails Castlevania: Symphony of the Night as one of the greatest 2D games ever, and yet half of what makes it so great, it took from Super Metroid. Clearly there's something very appealing about the Metroid series, and even if non-Wii owners can't understand the appeal (or are jealous, or just don't care), Metroid should at least be acknowledged as a major player this fall.
