Exactly! They are two completely different types of gameplay, and usually those who don't like one or the other just don't get one of the types of gameplay.
For example, I hated Halo at first. In CoD, my favorite thing to do was to sneak behind the enemy team and take them all out before they could react. It was a huge rush of excitement and hugely fun. Than in Halo, I would try that and would end up getting killed and tea bagged without getting a single kill because ...
Thanks MetalProxy :) Definitely one of the greatest games ever made. I'm just glad someone recognized it! For such an incredible game, it's sad how many people have never even heard of it!
And I agree about the pushing sexual orientation thing. I mean, I completely understand they are fighting for their rights and acceptance, and I respect that. I also like how all the conversation has eliminated a lot of the bigotry and misunderstandings surrounding gay people. ...
No kidding! Bubbles to you dexter! Honestly, there's a whole bunch of people out there that enjoy both games and think all these rivalry comments are kiddy.
Ug, no. This is so stupid. I's so sick of all this shoving your sexual orientation in your face just to make some sort of point. This is a video game, not some public service announcement. What does who the main character like to have sex with have anything to do with gameplay? I wouldn't want a game where the main character goes around saying "Hey look sir, just so you know, I like to have sex with men!" I don't go around telling people I like to have sex with wom...
You still can. If you don't have a harddrive or enough room, just pick up a cheap 8 Gig USB stick. I just went to Newegg for example and put in "8 gig usb drive" and got a whole page of them for $5.99. We're only talking about an extra $6 here for a handful of people that really should have a thumb drive already. In fact, you might already have one laying around that would work fine. I have about 3.
My point is, this is not really a big deal and it prob...
It's true that they are taking some improvements that are now standard in the genre and finally putting them into Halo. This is a GOOD thing. It's not copying, it's building off of progress. But if you watch the the multiplayer gameplay of Halo 4 and think that the gameplay looks even slightly like CoD, than there's something wrong with your eyes. Nearly every pro that's tried it has said Halo is back and that it feels like a mixture between Halo 2 and Halo 3.
*Sigh* Stupid GoW acronym. Why does there have to be two popular series with the same acronym?! Anyway, I will apologize for that misunderstanding trouble_bubble. I will stand by my statements though that Halo has historically come out once every three years, and I can see why the most recent Halo trailer could convince someone to get an Xbox. It was an extremely impressive trailer that got me excited for a game I wasn't excited for originally.
Gonna have to disagree with you Trouble_Bubble. I agree it was a disappointing E3, but every other thing you said was just... wrong. Sorry, I don't know how else to say it. Because an FPS has a scene in a forest, it's all of a sudden generic?!? I guess Minecraft is generic too. It's in a forest. Seen that before. The Halo 4 trailer pretty much blew everyone away, and this is not coming from a Halo fanboy. Don't believe me? The comment section for the trailer was the o...
Discovered the answer to my own question. It comes from the Diablo 3 cinematic trailers. Wow, that's some realistic CG!
Anyone know where the picture on the article comes from?
Whoa! That's the heaviest rabbit I've ever seen! He must have been eating lead carrots!
It's free money. They don't pay a thing to the developers. They just add them up there and then take a cut of their profits. So of course it is profitable.
What consumers don't realize is how much microsoft is actually hurting THEM with their policies. They keep getting upset that games are never patched and are buggy. What's the reason for this? Microsoft, not the game developer. When putting one patch out costs $40,000 (for absolutely no reason at a...
Same old game, new IP and sugar coating. I lost interest in the game the moment I realized it was yet another WoW clone. Granted, the voice acting would really help and I'm sure there's much more polish, but at the end of the day, it's just not fun anymore to do the same stupid quests with the same boring battle system. I mean, come on! Two enemies just stand 5 feet from each other with no cover around and shoot at each other for 20 seconds, neither seemingly hurt until the la...
"They make a lot of money off a single copy of the game multiple times while PUBLISHERS get the money only once."
There, I fixed it. Biggest myth in the games industry is that by buying a used game, we're taking money out of the developer's hands. The developers who worked and slaved and designed that game you love don't make royalties except in very rare circumstances. They're paid to make the game and then the profits from sales go to the publis...
FREAKING HECK YES!!! This is my number one issue, and I'm soooo happy they are making it the priority. It gives me hope for Infinity Ward and the game.
You obviously have no idea what goes into programming and altering an engine. First off, it cost money originally to license the engine. Second, it is so drastically altered now by years and years of development that it without a doubt has cost them millions. You're stupid if you think this is anything similar to the old quake engine still. And the only engine I can think of that can run at 60 fps and look this good is Rage.
Your guys bias and hatred for the series make you say such ridiculous things. It's so much improved from MW1. Have you even played it? I've played MW3 and it looks incredible in action. On PC, it isn't BF3 for sure, but MW is a console focused series, and is still no slouch on PC.
I dare you to name 5 xbox titles that are as graphically impressive as MW3. I'll bet you can't. (I'll give you a hint. BF3 isn't one of them. BF3 on consoles wa...
These comments are so stupid. Have you played it? I've played both BF3 and MW3 on xbox and MW3 looks better (unbiased opinion). Calling it a Potato engine is either insane or ignorant. Not to mention it runs so much smoother and has so fewer graphical glitches than BF3. I would be disappointed if MW3 was on the BF3 engine.
I've currently played the first 3 levels on MW3 and it looks mind blowing, especially in action with all the particle effects and everything g...
I love how they're wearing Team Battlefield 3 T-shirts while giving a CoD preview.
Besides, this is all nonsense anyway. I've played BF3 and seen all the previews for MW3. BF3 is ALSO the same game. It feels just like BFBC2. Giving a game a new coat of paint doesn't change the gameplay. I just don't get BF3 fans who bash MW3 for being more of the same. If anything, MW3 is changing up things a little more than BF3. It has brand new game modes, new cust...
"instead it looks like the product is already built and in actuality is using kickstarter as a retail front."
And what's wrong with that? I mean, this has gotten something incredibly awesome (imo) out there so people know about it and buy it, and that money is going to help them produce it. It also proved people's interest before they invested tons of money in producing it. They likely would not have had the money to produce it if not for this.
