Halo 3 Won't Be Successful

[QUOTE="Blackbond"]So RFOM is this all mighty original shooter. Granted its a good game but come on invading aliens, aliens, and a WWII familiarity? That's like putting all the most cliche things in a shooter all at once except for the main character not being a super soldier.Ptolemaueus

If you'll refer back to my post, the Gamespot reviewer clearly thought that Resistance wasn't original at all.  Which means you and I are right and yo_foo is wrong.  Which also means yo_foo has been owned.  By me. Good day, sir.

He ignored my arguement in the post where I clearly pointed out how the Gamespot reviewer clearly pointed out that Resistance was unoriginal.  What he said was, "And Halo isn't a rip-off of Tribes?"  I count him ignoring a statement as ownage, so you and I have both owned him, along with all the other people who's arguements (which were totally valid) he ignored.

Man if all Sony fans were like Tekkenmaster the PS3 woulnd't be bashed 90% as much. Most of the hate pointed to the PS3 on this forums comes from its arrogant fanboys like Yo Foo and the many others.

Halo: Combat Evolved.  Or rather - Combat DeEvolved.  That should be the slogan that Microsoft should run with for the latest in its One Hit Wonder trilogy - Halo 3.

Now don't get me wrong.  Halo was a good game, although a little over rated, and fulfilled itself as the only official X-Box game worth buying the console for (although it came out on PC!  Bad move).  It developed tactical shooting and developed a good fanbase for those interested in that kind of thing.  It had satisfactory multiplayer content which was good solid fun but also applied the use of tactics like in the missions.

Then enter Halo 2.  To increase Halo fanbase, they decided to dumb the game down for those who don't have the time for tactics and made the game just a full on shooter with limited tactics and cruddy weapons.  Yes Halo 1s weapons were far superior.

And now Halo 3 which promises to be a rehash of Halo 2s style of gameplay to keep these gamers who don't like to think that much and just shoot (the types of gamers who thought Doom 3 and Prey were Gods Gift to Gaming) and still keep in pretty well the same style as Tribes only without the jetpacks.  Plus the same repetitive nature of the game will drastically annoy fans of the original and soon enough people will just ignore Halo and remember it for what the series really is - A One Hit Wonder, much in the same vain as the Baha Men's "Who Let the Dogs Out" and the original Rocky film. 

Resistance is the Halo killer for this generation of gaming.  No doubt about it.

I love it how you claim that you have never been owned. Yet my sig shows clear evidence that you have. Not once, not twice, but three times. You will be owned yet again upon Halo 3's release. If Gears of War can sell 2 million copies already or whatever it was don't you realize how much more Halo 3 will sell with a much larger user base to work with?Blackbond

The blurb for the Resistance: Fall of Man review:

Resistance is an exciting action game that successfully combines many of the best qualities from other great first-person shooters with its own spectacular visuals and a few novel twists.

An excerpt from "The Bad" section of the review:

Derivative visual style and gameplay is well-crafted but mostly unoriginal.

You fail. "Combining the best qualities from other great FPSs" doesn't sound very original. And one of the flaws was clearly stated: it was mostly unoriginal. Remind me again how Resistance is so much more original than Halo 3 (which you have no basis to make statements about for its gameplay anyway.)

Well to be honest, I think it probably won't be able to match expectations set by gamers because Halo 2 was just that good. I think Halo 3 will be a great game but I don't see it surpassing the greatness of Halo 2.

I also think it will sell less than Halo 2, and I think it will score less too.

Despite all that it's one of my most anticipated games for this year.

no i haven't played the game. BUT I'm saying that if they lack originality and is like the disappointing Halo 2 then it will be disappointing in gameplay. :'(yo_foo
