discuss. poissible futures: Half life 3 killzone 3 resistance 3 gears of war 3 left 4 dead 2SchoolThingAt the release of Halo 8
In terms of what?
Popularity? Nope.
Daily Players? Probably Not anytime soon.
As for gameplay, a lot of people like Halo but prefer games like HL for story, gameplay, etc.
Halo will not be dethroned this gen as the iconic console shooter IMO. This game made Xbox.

lol i didnt even notice that typo. But um i won't say ODST will dethrone it because i still view ODST as an expansion to it. But i'd say Reach will at least match it, but hopefully surpass in sales and popularity. Also hoping it will have an even better soundtrack, i know Marty can do it :PI didnt know it had thorns in the first place.

[QUOTE="Giancar"]in what aspect?SchoolThingQuality, music, plot, multiplayer, longetivety, sales etc. etc... quality: HL...a long time ago. Heck even MW1 got way more FPS awards than halo 3, even here in GS Plot: there are too many games, the plot of Halo 3 isn't even that good Music: Halo 3 soundtrack its awesome, not the best but awesome MP: TF2 and some others sales: are you talking only about console sales? about fps in consoles or every other genre? longevity: heck, there are tons of people still playing CS :?
[QUOTE="Wii_Gamer_277"]When halo: reach comes out :PmusicalmacNo no, Reach is the Halo that will dethrone ODST. why would odst dethrone halo 3 when odst USES halo 3's multiplayer?

Which actually proves his point. You used multiple games just to combat halo3.

Does Modern Warfare 2 have 1 million daily users? NOPE. Does WaW? NOPE. WIll MW2 have 1 million 2 years after release? NOPE. Sorry...Modern Warfare, World At War and Modern Warfare 2 (in a few weeks) are more popular in the online department, if you're asking about.

ill name one game that does everything halo does and it was released on the n64 for crying out loud
goldeneye 007 ,, face it , halo was not the first 4 player fps it was not the first to have vehicles , goldeneye had a tank in 2 missions ,
agent under fire had cars in some of its missions tnd had cars in its missions long before halo came about
also perfect dark which s similar to halo has a hover craft
and so many different guns its not even funny
timesplitters offered vehicles by the third installment and it has a map maker since the first installment so your point that naming one game is so defunct i just named 5 diffeent game total that did everything halo did and more

God Half life 2 was good but some levels were soo boring and repetitive.

h575309FPS/Shooter? CS1.6, maybe not music but everything else and also: 'quality' is very much outdone by both games. quality isnt all about graphics there are way more things involved in quality

1) The StarCraft soundtrack is APPALLING. 2) 1 million don't play Diablo 2 on a daily basis. 3) Half-Life 2 didn't sell over 3 million in 24 hours.h575309FPS/Shooter? CS1.6, maybe not music but everything else and also: 'quality' is very much outdone by both games. quality isnt all about graphics there are way more things involved in quality How many players does StarCttaft have on a daily basis?
[QUOTE="h575309"]Woh woh woh. HL2 single player is definitely better than Halo 3's. Jandurinhe said Half Life. Not Half Life 2. Alright, maybe I didnt see that, im not checking now. But anyway, Halo 3 still does so much right, there was just so much in that package for 60 bones that made it great. 4 player campaign co-op plus so much multiplayer and forge. It was just immense. And hopefully Reach will add all of that, plus more, and a refined co-op experience that relies on teamwork. And maybe some awesome graphics to shut the Halo haters up.
1) The StarCraft soundtrack is APPALLING.Opinion, i think it has an amaizing soundtrack that is atleast as good as halo
2) 1 million don't play Diablo 2 on a daily basis. Not anymore, but its been out for 10 years. in 10 years H3 wont be close to D2's numbers today (H3 will be at 0 at that point btw)
3) Half-Life 2 didn't sell over 3 million in 24 hours. PC games don't need all their sales in the first 24 hours they continue to sell for years after release they generally arent forgotten in a few months for the next big thing being released

It was the second game I bought on my 360 (I got my 360 a few days before Halo 3 came out). It was pretty badass. And it was my first Halo, so I didn't have all these preconceptions of what it 'should be'.
