Is this guy serious? You get a great unique experience and you cry like a baby that it doesn't have everything but the kitchen sink designed into it. This goof ball writing the article completely forgot that this is an RTS. This is the guy the Halo Haters on N4G.com talk about when they say he got duped into buying a HW because he thought it was an FPS.
NewsFlash "This is not Halo 3"
Writing an article that whines about not have Forge, Custom Games, and...
Halo Wars is an official triumph for all Halo fans. This game is an absolute gem. Ensemble are now my heroes. This game is Halo on another level. The cutscenes are hands down the best the Halo series has EVER seen. What a great addition to the Halo Legacy. The characters were great, the graphics were perfect for this game, the storyline was engaging and outstanding to the end.
Every Halo fan in the world, knew this game was an RTS. The corny lines about how people were duped ca...
When the smoke and the overhype clears, Killzone 2 will not even be the top PS3 FPS. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is going to mop the floor with Killzone 2. It will outsell it, it will have a higher Meta-rating, and the SP (which will be Infinity ward's 1st co-op COD) and the MP are going to outshine K2 in almost every way. See K2's graphics are by far the best achievement it has to offer. Wait till games with better gameplay come out from September thru December.
For two months straight leading up to this we have seen nothing but this same site bashing Gears and Halo 3. Now you get 1 or 2 articles out of 30 actually criticising the game and all hell breaks loose. I've said it before and I'll say it again. When you keep going out of your way to ovderhype a game, by trying to smear others, the backlash wioll follow. Already, you hear the squeaks in the floor. Personally the whole illusion and shadow thing means absolutely nothing to a gamer. But, at the...
Almost every other day for weeks we see Xbox 360 console and game hater articles from fan-blogger sites like GamingBlorge, PS3Extreme, and even HHG. But, here you have the tables turned for one article and look at the crazy comments.Now,these guys want to burn N4G.com down. I love the fact that when the tables were turned, some of the same people were throwing rocks at Microsoft on the daily. Now they are in a group hug whining and crying that someone wrote a negative article about their syst...
To both of you..again the article had nothing to do with the 360. But then it turns into that multi-plats shouldn't be led on the 360 silliness again. But the argument is weak anyway. Killzone 2 doesn't even come close to holding this kind of weight over developers. So this guy is saying that developers should spend 60 Million dollars,take four years to develop, and have the suits at Sony spend every other weekend traveling to their offices, to ensure that their game is above 'subpar'? See th...
Fan-blogger articles continue to overhype and mislead the public daily. Instead of just enjoying K2 for what it was, sites like this overhyped what would happen when the game came out and are now claiming the PS3 is cursed?
Let's put the truth-o-meter up to this article and see how it rates:
'The launch of Yakuza 3 during the first week of March sparked a fury of PS3 console sales across the sea in Japan. The PS3 outsold all other consoles including the dominant...
Now that the bandwagon praise for K2 has finished. Let's all throw water on your faces and keep it 100% real. Call of Duty 4 is the second highest selling game (GTA 4 is #1) for PS3 for a reason. It was simply a FPS game changer. Infinity Ward built on the beautiful COD 2. I'm not going to bash K2 or anyone of the opinions that have come from the article or the comments. I just want to point out some gaming truth.
COD 4 didn't emulate the Halo series..it created it's own lane....
Salutes N4Garbage (lol) for once again proving my point. Only PS3 fans whine about multiple discs, but wont acknowledge the mandatory installs just to play games like MGS4.
If you are a Xbox gamer and you are too lazy to switch discs after playing hours and hours with one disc..then don't play ALL 5 of the games that have multiple discs.
Like I said less that 1% of Xbox games even require mulitiples and if you don't like it..just load it up to your hard drive an...
@ Green,
Good point..but I myself have loved cut-scenes in JRPGs since Final Fantasy VII blew our minds on the PS2. Did IGN jump up and down and complain about Metal Gear Solid 4? The cutscenes in that game didn't hurt any of it's success at all.
Yeah,Mass Effect felt like you controlled every aspect of the story. Plus, it allowed me hours and hours of hitting on hot female aliens.
@ Kills
Don't blame the Xbox for what the developers c...
We know GamingBlorge.com's mission statement is to destroy the Xbox 360...One article at a time. But let's play ball:
The infamous milking complaint is one of the most hypocrital arguments against the 360 ever made.
Every fan-bloggers or Halo haters who uses this argument are either gaming newbies or they are just so mad at the success of the 360 (GamingForge.com) that they will say anything
Facts:
Until, anyone shows me the same com...
The gaming consumer could absolutely care less about how many discs a game comes with. It is a storage medium..nothing more nothing less. People act like DVD 9 is NOT beta max in or VHS in comparison to Blu Ray. Lost Odyssey had the most discs I've seen this generation. But' WOW, did I get an immense amout of game time from each of those discs.
Ask a the consumer if they'd rather have multiple discs (Xbox 360) for .01% of your games, with immediate loading of the game. Or woul...
You know what just froze over and who is about to throw flames at this article from HHG.
Look there is a few of us Xbox gamers that have been saying this stuff for months. (Check the history if you dont believe) But, now that Killzone 2 didn't burn down Microsoft Headquarters all by itself; even Hip Hop gamer is realizing what the reality is.
But, let's keep it real..Hip Hop Gamer was one of the top advocates of the bashing Xbox took on this site. I never jumped ...
@ otherZinc,
Great post and bubbles up (since the other side has more numbers and N4G allows them to unfairly wound us) As you can see from my above post what I feel is the blueprint for the future of the series. And to be honest, If I saw members of Bungie I would bow down for the amount of enjoyment they have given us gamers since the original Halo. Additionally, OSDT sounds like it will be the best game this system has seen since it's inception. But I love the whole 'Dream T...
Bubbles to the Giantenemycrab for a truthful post (like I myself always give)..too bad most people on N4G.com and the fan-blogger posts that attack other systems for the hell of it aren't more like this. We gamers would all be in a better place.
If Shadow of the colossus 2 is shown at E3...I will cry with joy. Team Ico are my heroes. I'm like one of 3 people who bought Ico when it first came out. But please let that go. A next generation 'Shadow' would make the earth shake. But, I would need to know that it wasn't arriving in 2012, before I ran to Gamestop and bought a PS3.
Edit:
@ Joe
One could dream can't they? But, you can't go wrong with Team Ico. After what they accomplished with 'Sha...
@ King..I couldn't believe it either, but they talked about it in an interview posted today
Average number of registered account per PS3 system is approx 1.88 accounts."
Don't ask if gamers choose PS3 over Xbox 360 and then say 'it has nothing to do with sales'. If they preffered a PS3, they would purchase a PS3. (and Vice Versa)
Check NPD and you will see what the preference is from month to month. I remember last year when the PS3 was selling more by a slight margin from month to month. You couldnt shake a stick and not see an article about how PS3 was dominating the 360. Flip that around and it has 'nothing to do with sales'
X...
Halo Wars (in stores now): Wow! Ensemble was really onto to something big. This has made me an RTS believer. Bungie's inclusion of the mythic pack definately was a fan must-buy
Halo:OSDT (Sep): Bungie's swan song will be a retail beast! This games launch will sell more first day than any game in 2009.
Peter Jackson's Halo (2010): If it is not show at this year's E3..surely it will show at the next one. Probably a holiday release. Since we never got the movie..this w...
Been happily streaming 'The Office' and 'Heroes' on the Xbox 360 Netflix since it's inception. Eveything else gets sent in the mail. We are not missing one thing.
