I remember when halo 3 came out nearly everyone bought it, adored it, worshipped it, watever.. then after a month or so the bashing began..

Then... COD4 came out.. and just as Halo 3, everyone bought it, loved it, watever... and now.. just as Halo 3.. the bashing has begun.

Which brings me to my next point.. dont smoke crack.

I don't even see the big deal behind Rainbow Six, you camp on a wall and can see the whole corridor (how is that even realistic? do you have mirrors or something that let's you see the corridor?) so then you just pop out and shoot whoever you see. Also there's only like 3 maps that people played, wait let me rephrase that, calypso casino was the only map that people played.

I enjoy all games equally, but i will state I have been a rainbow six fan longer than call of duty and the halo series have been out. So, I will most likely prefer to play rainbow. It's one series I have enjoyed the most. Each game has their strength and weaknesses. Only thing to bash about COD4, and Halo 3 is the stupid kids online who promote negative stereotypes all the time. The games are great, the community makes people bash the games. Main reason people don't like halo as much anymore is because of all the children online. Same is starting to come about in CoD. Hopefully R6V2 gives me a coupe of months without worrying about stupid children every other second.

Discuss? I think you made this topic after reading my post in the other COD4 thread. I wrote.....

"If you asked this question a week after COD4 came out 90% of the people would've probably said it was the best. I predicted months ago people would start turning on COD4 because it was getting too popular, just like they turned on Halo. Looks like it's started already."

Your post is two or three posts under mine. I like the way you tried to pass it off as your own observation though. Very good.

Why is this a shock? There will always be new games that people will gravitate towards after a while. No game can stay on top forever.

The only reason I bought Halo 3 was cause I like online FPS games since back in the Quake 1 days (CTF, TF) and Counter Strike days..

I realized the online community would be huge in Halo 3 so I went out and got it mainly for that reason.

Halo carried me until COD4 came out and I have to say that I enjoy COD4's gameplay much more. Mostly because of the realism involved. Not that Halo 3 isn't fun because its a sci-fi type cause I like those genres as well.

Both games have their advantages.. COD4 you can customize your weapons vs Halo 3 you can customize your armor.
Challenges, levels, prestige all add incentive to keep playing and the saving of game videos, levels and rank system make halo 3 just as good..

If only thw two could be combined!

COD4 rocks and so does Halo3. The only thing I don't like about COD4 is the people on-line that do nothing blindly toss grenades everywhere.

On a smiler note, I never really like R6V it was too realistic and by that I mean getting killed by one shot all the time.

I don't "bash" either games, I just really, really despise the fanboys in both of them. More notably the CoD4 fanboys.

it's because people are ignorant and like to bash on games taht are more famous than games they like. i'm a CoD4 fan, and have never played more than 10 minutes of halo 3, but i know it's a good game. i've seen it played and i like how it looks, CoD4 is just more my type of game.

I thought you were going to say it's turning into Halo 3 because of all the punk 10-year-olds who like to swear at everyone and call people every racist, homophobic slur out there. In that sense, I completely agree. Otherwise, I don't hear much bashing. Personallly, I still love it and see myself coming back to it time and time again.

And for the record, I enjoyed Halo 3 briefly before I sold it. It was a complete rehash of the first two, but it had better graphics and sound. I'm glad COD4 was made by Infinity Ward. I enjoyed COD3, but COD4 is far better in terms of game play and overall design, even beyond actual gameplay.

Realistic Game : They shoot your character and you actually bleed and die on real life. No respawnings. Not cool. Keep my games unrealistic. lol

I don't believe Call of Duty 4 is turning in Halo 3 at all. You do raise some good points, but on the whole, they aren't in anyway similar. Halo 3 has a great online multiplayer, as does Call of Duty and yes, both do have very irratating kids from both sides of the Atlantic, kicking off with who they can't beat. I'm a fan of both games, Halo 3 in particular. I spend time on both, equally and enjoy the differences. And I personally don't think RSV2 will be beating this two games anytime soon.

I'm pretty sure people were bashing Call of Duty 4 before it even came out. I don't understand why people must express their hatred for a video game. It's a damn game. If you don't like it, there is an easy solution...don't buy it.

Exactly my point. Any game no matter how good it is is going to get old after a while. People will move on to something else.

Simply put
Halo 3 came, it was decent, but praised by fanboys
Call of duty 4 came out, people realized it was great
R6V2 is coming out, people think it will be better, they are mistaken it will be good, but not on CoD4's level.

Welcome to Popular Games 101. If a game becomes popular it will be bashed. It doesn't matter how good or even bad it is (primarily good) it will be bashed. When Halo 2 came out everyone was saying it was either good or a Halo 1.5, yet now that Halo 3 is out they are saying Halo 1 and 2 (or just 1) were amazing and that Halo 3 is really a Halo 2.3 or 2.5.

Honestly? People are now saying Halo 2 wasn't bad because it isn't the big thing it is now Halo 3? Halo has always gotten so much more crap than any game (except for the Hour of Victory titles and crap like that) because they are popular. I know people that had never played the game and bashed it.

Once a game becomes popular (which CoD4 is more than CoD1.... more systems...) it gets a lot of crap thrown its way.

Dont listen to the carebear 12 year olds, mad that people like COD4 more then Halo 3. IMO COD4 is twice the game Halo 3 will ever be.

The only people crying about CoD4 are the ones not very good at it. It is a game that far surpasses Halo 3 in almost every aspect and still is incrediably popular. Apparantly though a few dozen players crying about Cod4 being unfair = mass waves of people leaving the game and the severe decline of its popularity

That's good that the initial phase of Call of Duty 4 freaks are done though; that way only the people who are serious and good at the game will continue to play. That might eliminate some of the noobs too; I get really sick of M203's with Sonic Boom.
