Killzone, no matter how successful part 2 may be, it will never kill Halo

I think Gears in a way killed Halo. Gears is now they most talked about shooter on the X360. Maybe that will change with the release of Halo ODST? And its impossible to kill Halo unless the game is on the same system. How would you gauge it? Lets say KZ2 get 10/10 from every site, and sells 30 million copies...how would that stop people from buying halo games?II_Seraphim_II

I dint experience those stuff on halo, that means that halo 9.5 rating is an opinion not something to agree with...Hellboard

Wow at people comparing a newly released FPS with a 2 year old game about online activity; talk about ignorance...

halo killed itself

people will eventually get tired of this damn noob franchise.

the vehicles are fun though best ones in a video game.

well the raptor/car in unreal 2 was pretty amazing had turbos and if you jumped a moutain holy **** you'd catch some air.

the vehicles exploded easy in unreal 2 though.

halo's vehicles like the warthog are crazy because you can drive down hallways so freaking small you wouldnt even think is possible.

it's funny driving into someones base and running people over though.

kill HaloHalo has 6 books (many on the new york times best seller list), a comic book, a graphic novel, a rich story if you take into account the novels, millions of fans who come back for the multiplayer, making Halo 3 still the #1 Xbox LIVE game. Forge mode and theatre mode has sparked a explosion of Halo 3 machinima, with "Red vs Blue" and "Digitalph33r (the maker of the Arby n the Chief series on youtube") has become a cult hit.

Master Chief is the very face of console fps and a household name, almost on the level as Mario is. There are now Master Chief Halloween costumes, action figures galore, and toy UNSC/Covenant guns.

Not to mention, despite what haters say, every entry is AAA. Halo: CE single handidly made the XBox launch a success and Halo 2 saved Live from being a failure. Each entry also gave what we now call a "Halo effect" where it gives massive hardware boosts, XBox 360 even managed to outsell Wii in NA in september when Halo 3 launched. Also, with every massively successful property, it spawns spinoffs. Halo Wars and Halo 3: ODST are providing fresh ideas in the Halo universe, expanding the story and the fanbase.

Now with Killzone 2, do you expect it to give EXPLOSIVE sales to both software and PS3 hardware where the sci-fi universe isnt as deep, the characters arent nearly as memorable, not to mention nobody is close to being mascot-quality as Master Chief?

Best case scenerio, Killzone 2 gets AAA, gives a small boost to PS3 hardware, and sells about 3-4 million lifetime. Which is great, but to everybody thinking it has a chance of killing Halo, you got the wrong idea.

And Halo 3 is the only reason why Xbox 360 sales rose. This is what bugs me about the Halo franchise. There are so many lemmings who won't even give other games a try because of teh Halo. Xbox Live SHOULD NOT have almost failed before Halo 2. That is just ridiculous. There are plenty of good Live games. But nope...Halo 2 arrived and most other games were abandoned on Live. Halo 3 is what drove caused a 360 sales increase. Not even CoD 4 could do that EVEN THOUGH there were more people playing CoD 4 on Live than Halo 3 for awhile. The hardware sales of Xbox and Xbox 360 should not have had to be so dependant on teh Halo franchise. The games are loved way too much.

Don't recall anyone saying that Killzone 2 will be the Halo killer. Hell most people won't even hype it AAA.jakarai
