could we then safely proclaim Gears as the real "Halo Killer"?

and if not, what is it then a game needs to do in order to earn the "Halo Killer" title?

The chances of Halo 3 not outselling and dominating Gears when it comes out are very slim.

Bioshock is currently being played much more than Gears (The league tables include "live aware" single player games)

Halo, i thought was good for a launch title, but for a major must have on a console...i'd be forced to pass it up prolly why i didn't get into halo 2 as well, Both previous games look dated compared to shooters now Halo 3 i'll glance at if there's major changes in terms of graphics, and more than enough variation to keep my interest GeOW on the other hand, actually feels gritty, plus you also have those cover moves, and the "roadie run" and feeling like it's thrust you into the game, Where as Halo felt like it fails to deliver somewhere, it lacks that certain "je ne sais quoi" I dunno about you guys but i'm more excited about any new Gears content/Games

Yeah.... not many people would agree with you.

All the games that my brother has played on Gears have the guys talk about Halo 3's release and stuff. While trying to glitch everywhere.

No, there won't be a major change in Halo's graphics. Don't know why graphics mean so much to you anyway. And personally, I think Halo's graphics have surpassed Gears.

Graphics don't mean that much to me, it's a plus, a VERY nice plus, especially if they can get the game looking better as well as great gameplay. It's just my opinion halo 3 still doesn't look all that much different to Halo 1 & 2, but only time will tell when everyone gets to see what it finally looks like I know what i feel is missing from halo 1 and 2 though, it feels way too static ie: drab scenery, somewhat repetitive etc etc

I can assure you,

Halo 3 is the biggest change in the series.

Agreed. The Halo series is nothing but a bunch of grossly overrated games. Although I might just buy Halo 3 for the multiplayer.

Ermm, a Halo killer would need to a FPS, not a 3rd person shooter.

The closest "Halo killers" i can see are CoD4 and Crysis

Lol agreed. That magazine cover with Game, Will.I.Am and Nas was a classic for sure. Nice to see some real hip-hop instead of that BET/MTV garbage.

Ah right. I can't keep up with hip hop today because of the swell of mainstream crap filling the TV. The Game and Nas didn't get much attention this year in my country.

Oh yeah do you like Swiss Beatz as a producer? The same guy that produced "Wall To Wall" by Chris Brown?

I find Swiss Beatz' sounds to always be similar. He is a better producer than a rapper for sure though.

Agreed. Who's your fav producer?

Would I be correct in saying the Game is one of your fav rappers?

My fav producer is probably Kanye West or Just Blaze. Game is my favourite currently active but not in my Top 5 of all-time. My list goes like this.

1. Jay-Z
2. AZ
3. Ghostface Killah
4. Eminem
5. Nas

It's a pointless question as there's pretty much no way that'll happen. Halo's multiplayer will explode the day it releases.
