The only thing remotly decent about Halo is the campaign. Multiplayer wise, nothing that hasn't been done a million times before.

I tend to think of FPSes as crap anyway, but really, Halo was pretty unspectacular.

I honestly wonder how phenomenally stupid people have to be to be hyped up so much about one game after another, that they can glide right through the mediocrity time and again.

I went to Gamestop to pick up a game I preordered, Project Sylpheed (an awesome game by the way, all 360 owners who are into sci-fi action should check it out.) The guy behind the counter asked me if I preordered Halo 3 yet, and I said "No, didn't really care for the 2nd one and haven't bothered to preorder it."

He looked at me like I was crazy and said "But it's the best game coming out!"

/sigh

Kick him in the balls. He should never be allowed to procreate.

Actually, working at Gamestop more or less assures that he won't.

I wonder why the 360 has better games than PS3.....could it be the system was out a year earlier? You know, more time means more games. More games means more good games. Plus they have had all that extra time to learn tricks in the dev software to make better games faster and cheaper. Compare PS3 software in one year to current 360 software. I gaurantee you everyone will be buzzing about MGS4, Killzone 2, FFXIII, etc. And MOST of the 360 owners (by most, I mean, the non-intelligent ones) will all be griping about how Halo 3 is better than all of those games combined. But they won't have anything other than Halo 3 to talk about.

As it stands now, though, yes, 360 has better software.

There is also something a vast majority of people forget:

The PS3 uses brand new technology, whereas the 360 is basically a PC.

No, the original XBox was a PC. The 360 is using PowerPC processors made by IBM.... The SAME people who make the Cell processor for the PS3 and they're both PowerPC based.

People forget because that myth doesn't exist.

And at a related point in time, the 360 had a better selection of games, with a more diverse set of announced titles. And if you think that 360 owners won't have anything to talk about but Halo, you REALLY need to pay more attention.

Ah, at least you made the effort. I won't get into PDZ > Resistance bollocks. The multi-format gaming press would disagree, but each to their own.

Now, FF is "defs" not ported. There was a rumor flying around because Square bought some rights to the Gears of War engine, but even if FF comes over, it's going to be a different game. Square have already said that most of their games willm be exclusive to one console and you forget that FF13 is plannging to have at least 5 different games. So they won't be the same game.

MGS, of course the rumors are there. It will happen one day, or at least PC, but it won't be for at least 6 months minimum after the PS3 release. I prefer my 360, but you can't just spout garbage and then say the PS3 is poo.

It is a remake. Pretty much 0 for new content. That's why I brought it up.

It's one of the original games that people are using to support the PS3's awesomeness.

I bring it up because it's funny when people us ports and remakes to show how cool a system is. Like Super Mario 64 for the DS, or half the early DS games.

Square-Enix did license the Unreal Engine 3, but it's not for a Final Fantasy game, it's for a game called The Last Remnant. It's some kind of action-RPG.

Nope. It's a pretty horrible game honestly.

Well, it came out for PC but afterwards. I don't believe it's a sequel or remake.

The official sites all list it as a PC game. That usually indicates it was a PC game first. In fact, according to GameFAQs, it came out a full year earlier on PC. Well, almost.

That was a Europe release. For the US it came out on the same time as it did on the 360.

Na Call of Juarez has only just come out for 360.
It was in a magazine I bought to read on the plane.
It doesn't seem like a game that'll last long though so its gonna go after I've completed it. Enjoying the storyline anyway.
Anyway Bioshock > Halo
