That's impossible to objectively debate. The title of the thread asks when it will be dethroned, and only a 360 exclusive can dethrone it. Not the other games he lists. .Trinners
The TC never mentioned about it being dethroned only by a 360 exclusive, where did you get that from?
Any FPS, on any platform, is a "Halo murderer" contender.
These Are The Most Significant FPS Ever To Grace Gaming: 1. HALO - without this game, in 2001, who knows if the FPS genre would have been alive? Splendid controls, killer adventure, awesome graphics, orgasmic music... The List goes on... Halo is one of the most influential titles in modern gaming history. 2. HALF-LIFE - Half-Life introduced what it was like to play Single-Player campaigns and mixed awesome adventure, good physics and interesting characters with mystifying plot. 3. CS - this is another Valve game and made FPS popular (until Halo made them super mega successful), this is the most popular FPS, and along with Super Mario and GTA the most iconic and well-known games in the world. 4. DOOM/WOLFENSTEIN - these were awesomely great for their time and the first ones and easily among the most important with super controls. 5. CALL OF DUTY - this is very casual and noob-friendly but mixes awesome MP with amazing campaign and flawless system perks, controls, graphics etc. 6. KILLZONE 2 - best exclusive FPS ever for PS3. Good graphics, nice controls (not always, though), good characters, nice physics, good war feeling, good MP. Easily the best. 7. CRYSIS - this is the most astounding game in the grapics department, Heavy Rain, LMAO? Crysis has a whole of nice feeling with great adventeris feeling and cosy play in the darkness with great physics (hitting down trees, houses etc.) Agree/Disagree? Killzone 2 is the emperor of PlayStation 3 FPS shooters. Call of Duty is the leader of casual, noobified first-person shooters. Half-Life is the Lord of single-player first-person shooters on PCs or consoles. Crysis is the king of graphically impressive FPS. Counter-Strike is the king of PC FPS, most popular. Halo is the almighty God of all first-person shooters and the father of the MODERN FPS gaming. Doom/Wolfenstein were the first FPSs. Missed some? :) This is an official list, so tell me if there are any important ones missed that did a lot to the genre.
There have been months since Killzone 2 was released, and I think it's time to answer the question: - did killzone 2 murder Halo 3? It was for so long hyped to put an end to one of consoles most popular iconic fpss', to bury the Halo name and become the new king of FPS, to own the FPS crown and laugh at all other FPS slaves. So, did it happen? is halo dead and buried? What's your opion, yes or no, and why/why not? Is killzone 2 the new FPS king, above all else?
[QUOTE="shadow_hosi"][QUOTE="SchoolThing"][QUOTE="shadow_hosi"] first week is great and all but in the long run it means nothing. lifetime is what counts, and SC2 will win those sales StarCraft 2 will not win anything, and here's why: 1) Strategy games aren't that popular anymore. There are A LOT more games on the market today and first-person shooters is the hottest brand - strategy games aren't attractive to gamers' wallets and SC2 won't change it. 2) There are more strategy giants to rival it, it's not alone, like it was in 98'. it wasnt alone in 98' eather Total Annihilation, Command & Conquer, Dune, Warcraft 2, Civilization, Populous, Homeworld there were a ton of RTS games back then as well yet starcraft proved to be the best, as it will again, next year hopefully. But it will not be as popular as some claim it to be.
[QUOTE="shadow_hosi"][QUOTE="SchoolThing"][QUOTE="shadow_hosi"] who cares? thunder is overrated anyway, its all flash no power Lightning is where its at, that can kill ya and baby, Starcraft is the lighting see, theres the lighting Stop bragging about SC2, please. No one will care about it 2 months after release. right just like nobody cared about SC 2 months after releas.....oh wait that was 10 years ago and lots of people still care hmmm i think i found the fatal flaw in your plan People will play it, just like they play other old games, but no one will talk about it, it'll be boring and people will move on. It won't be a hot subject.
