I'll be Cortona.

I'll be the flood.

[BTs_GhostSniper]

What the hell are ya'll talking about?

[crypt]

The Halo series, a running series from Bungie. Basically it's human culture like 500 years from now i think, the world is united as one. The Master Chief is a cyber genetic super soldier that can kick ass and shit. Yeah, so it's pretty much human vs alien. The flood is there to give everyone a hard time. So finally war isn't looked upon as a human killing another human.

Um, okay.

Basically it's the best first person shooter ever made so far.

I thought America's Army was!  Of course, I've never played Halo.

[Civrock]

bleh, Halo is was too arcadey, just like UT or Quake. i dislike such games, basically just "run'n'gun", not tactical at all. you can't compare it to games like GhR, RvS, CoD, AA or BF1942.

[BTs_Mysterio]

Halo is MS's take on Bungie's Halo. We all know the original one would have been better.

[~Po~ TiroFino]

Jeeez, the only way I'm getting any killz in Halo is driving the damn cars over people, I cant shoot anyone  to death, and I seem to die easily..... what a noob !

[spike]

I was damn good at halo until the cd stopped working and i stopped playing. maybe ill start again to get away from the aliasing bitchs who come out of no where on harv's server and own everyone. that just pisses me off.

[BTs_Mysterio]

Meh, aliasing is merely annoying. It will be their downfall.

[BFG]

Spike we have to go halo it upsometime, there are loads of Nocd patchs if your cd is bummed, but i want to go crusing in the jeep while on voip with some crazy crew

[crypt]

The original Halo, a low budget piece of shit just for Mac? Sure that would have been much better than the best selling entertainment piece of artwork in 24 hours and the best selling title on Xbox so far (over 10 million copies) I'm talking of none other than Halo 2, obviously. I mean the game outsold the Spider-Man 2 movie launch for christ sake. Halo 1 was in a league of it's own, not even touched by that of Halo 2. Halo 3 WILL cripple PS3 sales, except for the Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid fanboys.

Oh, and Civic:

Halo 2 can be played either way, that's what's so great about it. If you want to use tactics, you will most likely crush the competition. If not, you can have a good time online.

[Civrock]

i didn't say anything about Halo 2.

[BTs_Mysterio]

Crypt, the xbox crowd need to learn that 1 game does not make a console. Especially a third sequel to a game that came in strong and dropped off in a month except for Halo "fanboys". PS3 will cripple the X360 in the long for 4 simple reasons:

1. Double the power.
2. New proper Online support.
3. Bluray being hugely superior to X360's plain DVD [not supporting even HD-DVD]
4. Backwards compatible to PS1/PS2 [X360 only emulates XBOX thus slow]

Faster system, good multiplayer, and vastly larger game files allow much more detail.

1. Not really. Dude the PS3 is only coming out one Quarter in Japan after the 360. It's  not going to be that much faster. Plus the video card has already been said to be better than the PS3's RSX. ATI > NVidia. Always.
2. Has this been proven yet? Live will most likely keep a huge marketshare comparatively to PS3 Online, given that the superior features HAVE ALREADY BEEN SHOWN.
3. Blu Ray will be expensive, and there is no market standard. Hell HD-DVD might become that standard since the PS3 will be at least 400. So what if Blu Ray is left in the dark completely? Boo hoo.
4. Do you really wanna play all those old games? I mean this is my opinion but who the hell cares about old games? It's not even really a feature worth mentioning. If you still cared about old Mac games, you would either boot in 9 if that was an option, or you would keep a computer that would.

I can see people playing maybe Socom and stuff in the future, but with another GTA set for launch for the PS3, who is gonna wanna play anything other than that. I'm sorry, but Sony will need a revered FPS before they will be the first party developer/publisher that Microsoft is. They've got it all. FPS, Perfect Dark, Halo. RPG, Jade Empire, Fable. Racing, Forza, Project Gotham. 3rd person shooter, Brute Force, Gears of War. EA's got the threshold on sports games for the near future. The only thing Microsoft is lacking is good adventure series, but does Sony even hit this market up that well? No. Nintendo's got this on lockdown.

Now, why don't you hit up on what I said instead of elaborating on how good PS3 will be. Yes it will be good. No it will not be leaps and bounds over Xbox 360. Given the very limited frame of development, the pressure Sony will have to keep it under $400, and the fact that Xbox 360 will come out of the gate straight RUNNING and not stopping. Don't give me this "another Dreamcast" bullshit. If you are a fanboy, you will just keep saying "Sony, Sony, Sony" because you don't see that there is viable competition now. Not that there wasn't with Xbox 1, but this time it's much more serious and head on.

The wild card in next generation will be Nintendo. In a moderate to distant third place, they will take stranglehold on this position because they will profit from selling consoles at $200, which is a decent price. Nintendo doesn't have any raw features list yet, but at least they don't have their head far up their ass like Sony.

Sony makes shit computers, shit portable devices compared to that of iPod, and sells systems bullshitedly, don't fucking care if that's a word or not. They always come up short on features and on graphics. Where are the Toy Story graphics that were promised on PS2 now? I think they are on the PS3, that's where.

My prediction for next generation:
1. Xbox 360, because of it's advanced list of features yet lower price point, and Halo 3 at launch of PS3.
2. PS3, only cause Nintendo will never again rise above 3rd, unless they drop some serious dough.
3. Revolution sitting significantly yet profitably lower.

1. Yes the PS3's Processor has already been proven in benchmarks [3rd party] to have 2 Teraflops of performance to the X360's 1 Teraflop.
2. XBOX Live [360] has been shown in JPEG images run on G5s.
3. Bluray is already having a huge amount of endorsors, including Apple. [other examples: Samsung, Dell, Sony, Panasonic, Phillips, Mitsubishi, Disney and Twentieth Century Fox]
4. Actually I do continue to run classic games through OSX Classic supported by the hardware emulation of OpenGLide. People don't want their old games to become obsolete crypt... and they sure as hell don't want to keep more than 1 big box sitting around.

I can see people playing maybe Socom and stuff in the future, but with another GTA set for launch for the PS3, who is gonna wanna play anything other than that.

Perhaps you are unaware Crypt, but the wide array of games [far superior to xbox] is what make the PS2 the leader marketshare wise. The game developers don't want to go through a incompatible hardware transition that X360 is looking to do. The switch it going to make it hard on XBOX only developers.

Now, why don't you hit up on what I said instead of elaborating on how good PS3 will be. Yes it will be good. No it will not be leaps and bounds over Xbox 360. Given the very limited frame of development, the pressure Sony will have to keep it under $400, and the fact that Xbox 360 will come out of the gate straight RUNNING and not stopping.

Not that there wasn't with Xbox 1, but this time it's much more serious and head on.

I am not a fan boy of sony, I'm a fanboy of quality products that actually work. I've owned 2 XBOX now that are always crashing and always having problems that I dump money on and MS's support won't even respond to a XBOX Live subscriber of multiple years. Sony doesn't have a limited timeframe because they're prototypes aren't just empty cases with LED lights [G5s hidden under every console]. Sony has working prototypes that are playable. I guarantee the X360 will have many issues out of the gate like every other M$ product launch. Microsoft has no respect for the consumers, and quite frankly puts out subpar products like it's not even a problem anymore.

The wild card in next generation will be Nintendo. In a moderate to distant third place, they will take stranglehold on this position because they will profit from selling consoles at $200, which is a decent price. Nintendo doesn't have any raw features list yet, but at least they don't have their head far up their ass like Sony.

You sound like a propaganda monster here. Have you been hanging out with GS again recently?

Sony makes shit computers, shit portable devices compared to that of iPod, and sells systems bullshitedly, don't fucking care if that's a word or not. They always come up short on features and on graphics. Where are the Toy Story graphics that were promised on PS2 now? I think they are on the PS3, that's where.

Crypt, yet again you discredit yourself with blind attacks. I have not said anything about Sony's other products because this company is huge. In reality though Sony's ATRAC audio format is a very superior audio format, they just haven't executed on it. The PS2 was out 2 years before the XBOX1, do you expect it to be on part with the XBOX? This time Sony obtained CELL, and the graphics leader [PC side] NVIDIA. I don't see why you constantly put them down with little research, unless you are a XBOX fanboy.

My prediction for next generation:
1. Xbox 360, because of it's advanced list of features yet lower price point, and Halo 3 at launch of PS3.
2. PS3, only cause Nintendo will never again rise above 3rd, unless they drop some serious dough.
3. Revolution sitting significantly yet profitably lower.

1. PS3 - Large previous generation base that is unlikely to change, superior power and game size.
2. X360 - Fanboys forever. Will likely have some launch problems, but will produce a good game library listable on 1 page... much like it's father
3. REVOLUTION - Could surprise us, but I don't think too many people are watching.
