I'm sorry this wus in the the ps3 threads but im posting this here bcuz i thought i would be less biased then a bunch of ps3 fanboys (surprisingly i am 1....i'm a warshipper of sony!!...not literally) well i don't want pplfighting over but plz keep the comment smart and all ways contradict some1s comment it keeps thethread fresh.

"hate to make the never ending comparison between Halo 3 and Killzone 2, but if you had to choose one, what would it be?

After seeing this video, I'm going to have to go with Killzone just based off of singleplayer.

Nah, Halo is Halo and Killzone is Killzone. I think that Guerilla just wants to make a good game and are not trying to "de throne" Halo.

Who cares if KZ2 challenges Halo 3?

The devs sure as hell dont. They aint competing with Halo 3. They're competing with themselves to make the best game they can. They're improving on their past works.

I've always loved the Halo series, so I would pick Halo 3. But Killzone and Halo 3 are very different types of first person shooters. Halo's more run n' gun while Killzone is more tactical. Graphically though I like Killzone better.

Yup, thats exactly what their Project Lead said in the 25 minute interview, which happens to be posted here on GS.

If you compare Halo 3 with Killzone 2 side by side, Killzone 2 would be non existent.

I read the thread name and was prepared to come in here and say that halo is nothing like killzone, and the devs obviously arent trying to de-throne anyone.

Im glad that is already realized

Killzone 2 shouldn't even be considered in the same league as Halo looking at the flop that was Killzone 1.

The only reason people are hypeing KZ2 is beucase it looks good. And thats only because it has lots of blur and everything is gray Halo3 will be better because of the online. But I really hate both of the games.

its not gonna happen... there no chance that killzones multiplayer will be anywhere nearly as good as halo's sure it will be the best looking console game. But everything else besides graphics just isnt nearly as good.

its way WAY WAY to tell on killzones part...everyone was thinking the same one with the first one!

i was actually worried how halo 3 would turn out untill the last bunch of media that has come out...WOW!

and to all the halo haters...there is a reason all the professional game reviewers score it so good...cause its a good game...your not cool and you are not getting any attention by saying its bad

The Halo series has a massive massive fanbase. I highly doubt any other console FPS will even come close to the sales of Halo3 regardless if it is a good game or not. I suspect that the majority of American gamers (what is it now over 6 million?) on the 360 will purchase Halo3 with quite a lot getting their 360 just for the release of Halo3.

XenogearsMaster

That isn't a bad thing in my books.

Plus, from all the improvements I've seen over the previous installments, I'll be playing this one for a while :)

Killzone 2 doesn't wow me, Halo 3 does.

reviews yes but not in sales. just one thing though while i do agree that Halo is a good series and it power in sales should be respected will people stop acting like it's the greatest thing ever made honestly i like halo but stop acting like halo is the best FPS out their cause people who actually play FPS's know that while halo is great it's not in a league of it's own

Even if Killzone 2 is a better game then halo 3 (which I highly doubt) it will never "de throne" Halo, just because of Halos popularity.

Can we not look at killzone as a halo killer?,The media hyped it as a halo killer gamers didnt.
I'm hyping killzone 2 as killzone 2
not killzone 2 the halo killer and i think all us cows will do the same,not because it didnt beat halo on its first try as some might want to belive but because it shouldve been like this hyping killzone as a game and not a killer

Same thing I was thinking. Plus they can't compete really. Halo can't affect Killzone and Killzone can affect Halo. They are on two different platforms.

It was deemed a "Halo killer" and hyped by fans and the press who first layed eyes on the game. The developers never made Killzone to be a "Halo killer". They've denied this in the past.

Features-wise, I don't think Killzone 2 will come anywhere near Halo 3. Weapons/gadgets/vehicles-wise it will be absolutly no contest at all. Graphics i'll give it to Killzone 2 easily, but it depends on what you are looking for. If you like color, than killzone2/gears/mgs4 are probably not for you.

Killzone 2 and Halo 3 both look decent, however, I think I'll enjoy Halo 3 more, because I really enjoyed Halo, it was the first open FPS I've ever played, the first next gen(At the time) I've ever played, so it was pretty cool.

Wait, did you just say mgs4 will only look pretty and not have the weapons/gadgets/vehicles needed for an awesome shooter?!?!

When did you play a copy of MGS4!?!??!?!

HOW ELSE WOULD YOU KNOW THAT!?!?!

Halo 3 all the way.

It will have one of the best endings to any trilogy.

I played Killzone but I hated the weak characters the stealth chick sucked. THe only one worth playing as was the steroid user.

Also Halo 3 mp will be the bomb it will make the game last forever.

But because that sold due to the steam of the first one, they accomplished nothing they hadn't already set themselves up for.

Halo 2 had enough steam of it's own. Sure the campaign came to an abrupt halt...but multiplayer is STILL popular. People wouldn't be playing a game this long if it was just rolling off of the steam of the first one.
