[QUOTE="iKINGBOBi"][QUOTE="mythrol"]The problem with Halo is that it's so popular that no one can have a regular opinion of it. Cows are all going to talk trash about the graphics and lemmings are going to hype it up as high as they can. The truth however is that the game looks awesome and focuses on size of level, amount of enemies and vehicles on screen, and splitscreen instead of trying to push the graphics to the highest level. What we really should be discussing is which would gamers prefer? Personally, I think Bungie made the right choice. KZ2 for all it's awesome graphics, is a ghost town online. mythrol
Then explain how I just got offlinefrom playing6 32 player battles:| If you'd come back and address the image I posted of 230 players being online in KZ2, I'd greatly appreciate it. Now we might argue that the definition of "ghost town" would mean no one was online. However, ghost towns are haunted, so of course there will be a few around. My point was that KZ2 has an extremely low number of players online. This isn't new either. I actually got rid of KZ2 a few months back because the online was so dead. There were multiple times that I'd log online and there'd only be TWO matches going on.That has nothing to do with the quality of the game though. Killzone 2 is amazing and you can always find a match online, which ends the discussion, it's not like there's 0 players online and it's not like the game is bad.
This topic was about graphics anyway so i'm not sure how player count got involved. Halo will always have a bajillion people because Halo is a part of pop culture and mainstream audiences gravitate to it the same way they do Call of Duty.
Halo will always have millions on the multiplayer, that doesn't mean Killzone 2 failed or isn't a better game than it, it just means more people know about Halo (and also PS3 owners quit FPS' fairly quickly to go onto other games, but in their defense there's way more diversity in PS3 lineup imo or PS3 owners in general are more open to other genre's than just shooters).
