I keep hearing people say, I played Splinter Cell, didnt like it so I dont think Im gonna like MGS.

More commonly, people say, I dont like mgs(they havent even played it) and then say to prove im not a fanboy, i dont like Splinter Cell either.

They are completely different games. The gameplay is COMPLETELY different. The only thing they share in is common is the name stealth. They execute stealth in completely different ways so please stop comparing the two games.

1.When people say MGS4 loooks mediocre.

2.When people say Halo3 has bad graphics.

3.When people say Halo3 has an amazing storyline(its average at best)

4.When people say MGS has a bad storyline.

5.When people say the PSP is dead when its the 3rd-4th highest selling system each month.

Halo's story "is rich and complicated in ways that we're not used to in video games," Lev Grossman declared recently in Time. The level of lore rivals that of Jane Austen novels, he wrote, and its quality is Wagnerian. "Halo takes itself seriously as, if not art, certainly a spectacle. But art seems more apt."

Halo does "what a truly good book or film or TV show does," says Peter Molyneux, a pioneering game developer (Populous, Black & White) and founder of Lionhead Studios, which like Bungie was acquired by Microsoft. "Halo delivers it in a way that more than ever before is emotionally engaging. In our industry, Halo represents pretty much the top of the game of what we are able to do with our dramatic content."

publicity much...halo has the worst story ever, designed for the USA of today

MGS has a real story

pretty much every FF has a real story

Killzone has a real story

heck even kingdom hearts (made for kids in japan by square/disney) has a better story, i watched thehalo 3ending its just as i predicted.

and i can tell you this halo isnot emotionally engaging in anyway, im starting to think this guy is joking

when i see master cheif i feel no emotion, you knwo why because he cant show emotion, even if he had a face, the game engine sucks too much to give him emotion

Even though your a fanboy I kinda agree with you. Master Cheif has no personality or character at all. He is just a blank character who casuals think is cool because he do teh big jumps and shoot people. He has no personality whatsoever which is just stupid.

I think you guys are kind of forgetting something about Halo when you dismiss its story and single player.

Halo FEELS epic. From the moment you turn it on and hear that bad ass theme music, you feel like you are really taking part of something big, and this whole sense of being involved in something that is on a grand scale comes from its success in the SP area.

Halo is one of the few games that really makes you feel like you are part of some grand event. You feel like part of the epic Halo world.

not really, i bet most people wont believe me but whatever but it was painful playing the campaign for me. I ended the campaign with my cousin on both halos. The stories were below medicore. The only people who think it has a good story have never played games like MGS, Final Fantasy, Xenogears etc.

Microsoft is advertising the **** out of this game.

Anyways, lol at halo story, its pretty crappy and yes ive played them both. Its the gameplay where Halo excels.

best:mgs3

worst:i dunno
