Well the question is, what kind of throne is Halo3 3 "holding"?

youll find out come the end of next month.

Killzone 2 will be better than halo 3 in graphics, sounds, and atmosphere. Halo 3 will be better at everything else.SteveMcD

Sorry, only graphics. Halo 3 has over 40,000 lines of dialogue just for combat chatter. Not to mention all the actual story dialogue in cutscenes. The music is superb and iconic. It also pulls you in to the game. And the Halo series has some amazing atmosphere especially in the levels with the Flood.

And I prefer halo 3 graphics to Killzone 2 graphics. So maybe not even the graphics. But yea, technically Killzone 2 looks better. Just because of all the blur effects it has on everything.

bump i see u guys have made pretty smart comebacks for halo but think halo is a rehash with same graphics engine new textures and physics, on the other kz2 has allot of stuff check it at wikipedia, but i see allota ppl did there job , and some ppl are making blaitent fanboyish comments.

WHAT throne? The Xbox sold 24 Million. The 360 Sold 10. Most of that 10 are 360 owners. The only throne Halo has is the hype throne. Its a hyped up game in a minority of the gaming community (Xbox users). And the only reason it was hyped was because you can't launch a system without having a killer app.

Americans would scream UWE BOLL IS THE GREATEST director ever if they were told he was by the american media.

All I got to say is Halo 1 AAA, Halo 2 AAA, Killzone it didn't even get A status. "Halo killer" my ***. You would think cows would learn there lesson, nope instead they go hype a sequel of a failed game, just because it got a new coat of paint.:roll:smurf999

Halo 1 was going to be rated AAA even if it was one of the worst games of all time. Microsoft NEEDED it to be rated AAA, so it was hyped to hell. And of course, if Americans are told the sun revolved around the Earth - "WELL GAWD DAMN, YOU'RE AN IDIOT IF YOU THINK IT DON'T - NOOB - LOLZ"

Reviews: Yeah, I could see KZ2 coming close to Halo 3.

Sales: No, not chance in hell.

Agreed. Say what you want about Halo, but it is the sales king, for sure. The only juggernaut that can touch Halo is GTA.

bump me up...

Nothing can challenge Halo. They can release an utter crappy game for Halo 3 and the casuals will still think it is the best game ever made.

I just want Killzone 2 to be very fun.

Yes, I like the graphic style of Halo 3 a lot better than grayzone2. And Halo 3 KILLS Killzone 2 in sounds and atmosphere.

Killzone was an okay game but it had a lot of issues. Who says that with a major remake ( like they are doing) that they coudn't make it a good game. GS said it was good but the gliches made it bad. Check out the review if u haven't read it.ravine1

Honestly, when that score went up people just went wild for what it represented rather than reading the review, and we are forever scarred by that number...

Although, you are correct, the graphical glitches did contribute a lot to the game's bad reviews; mostly, even.
There were some dumb design choices in the game, however, which is what the developers actively built on. In the end, I think it was the game's presence on the PS2 that really allowed the biggest problem to come through: Graphical glitches. It pushed the PS2 too hard, quite frankly, and it used techniques the PS2 couldn't handle to render the game.

Without a doubt.

*waits to be shouted at about textures*

Yes did you also know that they have over 7 months to go over those details.

*waits to be challenged by: Killzone 2 is all grey and not colourful*

What could you expect on a hostile planet with explosions and lightning and heavy smoke? And can you honestly say that after having only seeing the opening mission??

Although I think the halo franchise is pretty darn good, i've never really rated it that highly, so in my opinion, it easily has the potential

That's the problem with Killzone 2. The whole hostile planet BS you're talking about. That can't be changed. I hate the art of the game. And all of Killzone 1 was gray and gritty or w/e.

Killzone had other enviroments like swamps and snowy mountians.:? However, since Killzone 2 isn't taking place in Vekta, we might not see as much enviroments. maybe a desert like the opening in Killzone 1? I do agree that all we've seen is grey but this is just one level. Also, I don't think Killzone 2 will dethrone Halo since it has a larger fanbase than Killzone's fanbase.

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.Solid_Link22

This is all that needs to be said. The thread should have stopped here

if they do a good job on mulitplayer then yes

actually, Killzone had color in it's levels. there was a jungle level, a scrubland level, a desert-like level. There was a lot of color in them. play it if you don't believe me.

has anyone seen the concept art for KZ2? there is lots of sunlight and color in the level designs. go look at it for yourself right now, and then come back and try to complain about "lack of color"
