2. Your statement about Zelda is foolish. They are two widely different RPGs. A bigger world doesn't make a better game.
3. The PC version is far better than the other two. Not by any stretch of the imagination can that statement be defeated.

And wraith is correct about Gears. I didn't mean it was an FPS, I'm not stupid. But it's definately something that will retract from Halo's glory.
1. It was out for 360 before PC, and i reckon PS3 will phail miserably at selling it.
2. I didn't say anything a bigger world did i? No. I meant it in the sense of the depth that it's gone into. E.g. character customization, attributes, levels.
3. I'm not going to try and "defeat" that statement, i agree with it. But we're not talking about PC.

How will it "retract from Halo's glory"? Everyone that i've spoken to that plays the 360, don't associate GoW and Halo in any way whatsoever.

1. They had exactly the same release date. 3/20/06.
2. A bigger world is the main argument. But they are two widely different games. Zelda isn't a standard RPG, so of course you won't see the things you listed. Your point is moot.
3. Yes, we are. I'm saying that it's not really a system seller if it's so mutliplatformed.

And it will retract from halo sales because they appeal to the same demographic exactly.

holy ****, do you live in a cave?

thats all i ever f***ing hear, GoW vs Halo.

and oblivion is awesome, but overrated in my opinion. whether its better than zelda is arguable(they aren't even in the same genre) and yes as shadow said, its not a system seller because it is multi-platform.

I really like the way all the sony fanboys come pillaging this topic because they feel their company has been defiled. It didn't need that article for us to know sony sucked. Anyone with a brain could figure that out on their own.

In other news, maddox owns.

you JUST figured that out? Anyway, 360 has one good game, Viva Pinata. Other than that, every other game is overrated bull****. GoW isn't ok, but its just another shooter. And Halo is the most overrated PoS EVER.

lkr take your fanboy crap and gtfo >_>

GoW is not just another shooter AT ALL. its obvious you haven't played it... it actually took me awhile to get used to it because of the differences between it and most other shooters.

and halo rawks, btw. even though it is overrated, its still friggin amazing.

No. I've known that since I first found his site. But I figured it deserved mentioning.

And also it cant be overrated if it was voted the 6 best game EVER!

People vote for recent games as the best game ever all the time, I don't think any game should be considered as the best game ever because every game has weaknesses that other games are strong in, and genres should be a dividing factor that makes it impossible to consider a game as the best game ever.
I think Halo is overrated and BF1942 is slightly underrated, they have partially the same concept except Halo has a slower fluid pace and BF1942 has more flexibility with the large maps and many vehicles. I'd say Halo is actually closer to UT2004 for the futuristic feel and game modes, or maybe Counter Strike for the way it's commonly played (just killing the other team). I agree Halo might be the best console FPS ever, at least in terms of popularity, but I don't agree that any console FPS could ever beat any already existing PC FPS.
