Sony needs to stop trying to reinvetn the wheel, almost everyone will use home like find out its a drag and just use menus. Would you everytime you want to switch the channel on the tv load something similar to home walk around, select the channel and then watch the show or just go to the guide. Sure its cool but its not practical and you really need to get a life if you feel the need to hang around in a virtual sim.

Haze>>> Halo 3(graphically)

no_submission

Umm...no.

Compelling argument you have there:|.

the pics speak for themselves.... And they say, "This is crap!"

QFT!

The thing is that everything in the game needs to have good graphics. But the background, the arms, they're terrible; they only worked on the bad guys.

Halo 3 doesn't even use HDR lighting:|

See this is exactly what makes SW so bad people bash game slike Halo with little to no knowledge about the games, atleast google something before making a claim, Halo 3 uses HDR and you would know that if you played the Beta or even did minimal research about the game. Halo 3 will be better than Haze in every department. That doesnt mean you shouldnt buy the game but dont think that it will be better than Halo 3 because people hav eplayed the beta including myself and the gameplay is similar but a huge improvement to Halo 2, now add the new announced content such as forge and 4 player co-op and then you realize how impossible it will be for haze to win. Haze looks to be AA and maybe AAA if it is lucky.

1. How can M$ when 360 already dead in Jpn and nearly dead in Europe. Wii sales now nearly 10 million. Even PS3 with crazy price tag sold and only couples of AAA titles sold more than 1 million Jpn....

2. You guys so proud Madden NFL for 360 is better than PS3 version. Didn`t you guys realize that we peoples outside USA never care about your American Football. We play soccer. We watch soccer....

3. Halo 3 preorder reach more than 1 million. So what? No matter how bad that series is s long as Halo fanatics still exist it`s not so shocking......

Heri012

1. Yes we all know the wii is killing the competition but selling a million in s few months in Japan is sad, the PS2 did it in days, we all know that the 360 is dead in Japan but the PS3 is closer to the 360 in Japan than the wii. Ans in Europe the 360 isint dead its just being outsold by PS3 kinda like how the 360 have been out sellling the PS3 since launch in NA.

2. Well didnt you realize that the US is the largest of the markets and having the better version of that stupid football game is huge advantage when it comes to sales.

3. So having sales now all of a sudden is a crime, Halo is a proven AAA on xbox so obviuosly it must be decent. However with the delay of GTA this will boost Halo sales and once GTA does release alot of casuals will have a 360 they got for Halo 3 and buy GTA for 360. If I were you I would be more concerned at the growing rate at which developers port 360 games to PS3 with less than stellar results. 360 has the better Madden and according to R* the better GTA, spin as you want but how long are cows going to take to realize that even if the PS3 sales of the price cut continued the Playstation has been thrown out and the PS3 might be the first of the playstations not to break the 100 million mark.

Who will win the Generation is impossible to tell but who ever does wil not dominate. As things stand right now I would say PS3 3rd, 360 2nd, wii 1st. However with indication of slowing sales for the wii I can see switching the 360 and wii. Each console will have to face its problems and it appears 360 is fixing its biggest problem with the new 65nm, the PS3 is working on its problem with the price cut, and the wii still needs to address its of dependance of nintendo titles. However looking at 2007 I would say the holiday will end:

360 - 1st (The games are there and sales will follow)

wii - 2nd (Will just keep going but not enought to take 1st)

PS3 - 3rd (Titles will be overshadowed by the 360 line up such as Halo)

Yes its true that on an entire FPS basis Halo is not the most influencal, it is impossible to claim something the absolute, however for consoles it is. Influence has alot to do with sales, the more people buy it the more developers pay attention to it. It is a common fact that developers rarely push originallity, the more popular gamed usually take ideas from other games before it adn improve. The retail success of Halo made developers flood consoles with FPS, Halo ignited console FPS almost singlehandidly. Halo even managed to take on Half life and in someways beat it when it comes to influence. Sure half life sold more than Halo but that doesnt mean Half life is more popular. The xbox was a joke compared to PS2 if the xbox and PS2 were reversed and it had a 100 million userbase its sales would most likely top that of Half life. Why because it achieved mainstream success. Go ask any random guy that likes gaming and chances are he would know what Halo is, Half life, although succesfull lacks the popularity of Halo. This popularity influences millions of consumers and future consumers. Restricting influence to only games is faulty. Although somewhat opinion it is fair to say that EGMs claims are correct somewhat depending on the specific influence you are refering to. Take what you want from my post it doesnt matter the PC elites will always see any FPS on consles as inferior, or any genre that is, it will truelly be a rare day when Hermits finally admits consoles as a PC equal in the gaming space.

[QUOTE="AvIdGaMeR444"]Because it is Halo 3...people will rationize the graphics situation to death until they convince themselves it is the best console graphics game ever made! If this were ANY OTHER GAME, the graphics would be laughed at. But not for teh precious Halo 3! Do people even realize that Halo 2 didn't have the best graphics on Xbox? :shock: Shocking, ain't it? I know. I know. "But how could you say that Avid? It iz teh Halo 2!"Guess what lemmings. Ninja Gaiden, Doom 3, and Chronicles of Riddick had graphics leagues better than Halo 2. But the obsessive Halo fans will always convince themselves otherwise...iwo4life

I agree 92.53%

You cant say an unkind word about halo. It had the biggest entertainment release ever so that makes every aspect of the game flawless.

The problem is that people dont just critisize the game they completely attack it, I cant count how many time sI have heard Halo is the most overrated franchise and that it sixk completely. Critisize dont state stuff that is obviuosly crazy, is Halo the best ever, NO, is Halo a quality game, YES.

Last week I bought one for my bro's B-day. My dad and I meet at toys-r-us on a sunday because we heard they were going to have 40 when they opened. We got there 30 min before the store opened (opens at 10:00AM) and there was a line. Toys-r-us was handing out tickets to get a wii and busing people in 2 at a time to buy them. When we got there at 9:30, 23 had already sold. We were #24.

Afterwards, we went next door to the craft store to get some paint for my mum and when we left, all the wiis were sold out PRIOR to toys-r-us opening! It's still pretty crazy.

I live in MD

goblaa

That sux, my local walmart has had them in stock for almost a month now, btw I live in Canada

Well maybe not really but basically a gearhead decided to use a wii mote on 360 and he uses a PS2 to 360 adapter, and makes the wii mote emulate a PS2 controller using a PC, something like that. Anyway check it out

How can you call Halo generic when comparing it to UT, Halo has an excellent SP and MP. UT however has a terrible attempt at a SP and excellent MP. I am not saying that UT is bad but of the two it is defniantly alot more generic than Halo. Just because you dont like Halo doesnt mean its a bad game, accept Halo is the bar for console FPS when it comes to overall game. Sure their are some with better MP on pc but nothign on consoles have the same SP and MP balance.
