Do you think it would've been considered the Halo killer that Sony has ever wanted? i.e. would the media / gamers claim it the Halo killer if it was a PS3 exclusive?

P.S. I would bet cows here at SW would've been singing a different tone if it was a PS3 exclusive.

They'd consider any decent shooter a Halo killer.

If GeOW was a PS3 exlusive than that 9.6 score would be just right and not "overated".

I don't think so, shouldn't the Halo killer be an FPS? I alway felt that if it's a w/e killer it should be in the same genre. It's kind of like asking is GTA a Halo killer?

IF GEars of War was PS3 exclusive it would get a 8.5. "Bad Ai, Short SP Campagin, MP only 8 players, takes ideas from Resident Evil 4 and Killswitch" is what GS would put in their review..

Unless it ACTUALLY WAS for ps3. Then you'd own it, praise it, and it would be far from overrated.

Unless it was for ps2. But, imo, I don't care for halo period. The hype is the only thing that interests me in halo3. I'll want it, get it, and probably think it's boring like i did the first two.

does old or new matters? I mean, if a new PC RPG game comes along and becomes more popular (played the most / has more fans / etc...) than WoW. Wouldn't that earns it the title of "WoW killer"?

First good laugh I've ever had at SW. People type "lol" and "rofl" all the time, but we all know they aren't actually laughing that much, or rolling on the floor, how could they type? But that really did make me laugh... lol! Thanks man!

There's such a small difference in them, though. I agree with you, but really the only difference is you can see your character in a 3rd person shooter. That's it. Camera moves the same, and everything.

If by oblivion you mean 2nd place, I guess so.  If Gears can still pull 250,000 players a day in two years time, then it'd be the Halo killer.

no, if Gears of War was PS3 exclusive, everyone who said it was the best thing since sliced bread would finally agree that the game is totally overrated and no where in the ballpark as good as Halo, because for some reason everyone hates Sony.

Gears is not the Halo Killer. But if it was on the PS3 you could make a strong case because it's a great game. Not a mediocre one. Halo 2 is better to me because it had a bigger impact on how much I play compared to Gears. I play Gears now because it's something different but I would consider Halo 2 better. That's just me.

If GOW was on PS3 exclusively, it would only get an 9-9.2 mainly because it wouldn't look nearly as good as it does on 360.

 Sorry, but the PS3 doesn't have the availiable memory, bandwith, shader power,etc that was used to make Gears look like that on 360---it would look like: RFOM very good, but not as good.

Gears was built catering EXACTLY to the 360s strengths. On PS3, it would look worse, but have better physics and particle effects.

Unless of couse, they spent something like extra year and had a 100% bigger budget, then Gears on PS3 might compare.
