ROFL. Reach not only eats Killzone in terms of features and content, but sheer playable scale to. 

I predict Reach will be GOTY on more than 80% of the review sites. 

Killzone 3 better than Reach. Oh wait England won the world cup.


Absolutely impossible. No one game will get across more than 20% of sites, there are far too many different value metrics that will apply to the GotY contenders this year.


Oh come on guys, I was splitting hairs. 

Of course I was exagerating, on purpose.

My point is, Killzone has never been a Halo both in game and sales. KZ2 didnt change that. All of a sudden people think theres an answer to Bungies masterpiece? It's ludicrous. 

Yes the game may be good. But not Halo. Reach looks phenominal. I know that styles can vary, but even so Halo is a game like no other. KZ is similar to alot of FPS's. And always will be. 

Halo cant be touched on what it achieves.

The same way GT pwns Forza?

C'mon Selnor, lets play it fair. You can have one but not the other!

You are right. Fair play bro, your right.

Just so you know though, I never said Forza was a GT killer or matched it etc. 

I referred to physics system and review scores. No KZ game has ever gotten a higher score than any Halo game. But since Forza came on the scene with Forza 1 ( it's direct competitor was GT4 they released same year ) Forza has outperformed GT reviews. Forza 1 beat GT4 review scores. And FM2 and 3 have had no direct competition. 

So it's only sales that GT can be reffered to as the winner. 

Whereas Halo is on every front a winner. It's a proven high scoring heavily played franchise that has increased it's sales with each consecutive game release ( not including expansion and spin off ). KZ started very average. Has been rounded off with a respectable 90 meta ( 89 GR ) and sold pretty well. But to say it's current 14,000 players online vs 223,000 for Halo right now is not a tell tale sign when Halo 3 is 2 years older is pretty misforgiving. 

KZ misses the things that people come back to Halo for time and time again. 

EDIT-

KZ2 last 24 hours   =    Had 17,162 players who logged in.

Halo 3 last 24 hours     =    Had 630, 485 players who logged in.

Killzone 2 has alot less players who log in over an entire month right now than in 24 hours of Halo 3. 

KZ2 last 1 month  =     Had 176, 009 players who logged in.

 

 

This tells you everything. If it doesnt then something is not right.

WTF @ THE BOLDED........

1. Killzone hasn't outscored ANY halo? KZ2 got way higher score than ODST.

2.WTF are this rounded Bullshit? KZ2 is @ 91 and 90 in meta and GR so GTFO out of here with your rounding, going by this logic HALO3 and KZ2 score the same if your round them to the nearest.

(HALO3=94 rounded=90 / KZ2=91 rounded=90)

you still want to play this rounding crap?

3.GT5 is only sales winner? ROFL!!!! funny because a few post back you want ppl to just agree that KZ2  doesn't touch halo because of sheer content or whatever else even tho they both score over 90 yet you can't bring your self to accept the same for FORZA and GT? GT5 has content,sales,graphics over FORZA so to borrow a phrase from you

"FORZA WILL NEVER BE GRAN TURISMO."

this is shane being a 360 fanboy. even the devs were laughing at his dumb ass at the 6 minute mark http://www.gametrailers.com/video/tgs-08-tekken-6/42386?type=flv&fbid=9SWLdzJC5Bs



Someone says something bad about Halo and the internet explodes. Despite the guys history, his had more time with the game than anyone on this site has and the general consensus from multiplatform gaming podcast is that everything that's been shown is kinda meh (a lot more of them are excited for Gears than they are for Halo). I'm not saying that their right, but I don't see anyone posting articles based on things that Sarcastic Gamer, Giant Bomb and 1UP have said.

People comparing Halo and Killzone should just stop, Killzone will never be as big as Halo and it doesn't need to be. Sales aren't an indication of quality, it's an indication of awareness and I don't enjoy my games based on how many people are circle jerking each other while yelling that I'm a 'dipshit' over their mics.

Halo is fantastic for Halo players and now that Killzone has found it's audience, its going to be fantastic for that audience as well.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

1. Halo 3 ODST is an expansion, so its nothing to brag about i can saying Forza 3 is better than GT 5:P. Would that mean much? No cause GT5:P is ODST for GT its just a expansion or GT case a demo. Not to mention Halo 3 ODST still had 4 player co-op, 2 play split screen online via firefight, 4 player firefight, 6 hour story mode, skulls, achivements, ranking system, all halo 3 DLC. More stuff do in expansion made in 11 months than a full fledge game that took 5 years to make. Pretty sad if you ask me.

2.How do you round one game? Are you a idoit? If you averaging the metacrtic score with the gameranking score. Halo 3 is still higher and your still wrong. Halo 3 GR is 93.54 and  meta is 94. So if you add both of them up and divide them by two its still higer than 90 -_- why do you not blindly defend killzone and all things ps3 and you migh actually win a argument.

Also If i rounded of killzone 1, killzone 2, killzone liberation its only 79% so double fail.

3. Want people to agree?  Agree to what? Halo does have more features than killzone. Killzone donst even have as many feautes as a standard FPS let alone halo. And i already proven you wrong with Halo 3 having the same overall score as killzone so the rest was invaild. Also Forza 3 as of right now since oct. the best racing game on the market and having the highest rating for any racing game this gen and i am pretty sure it won alot or racing game awards too. So you cant blame them to compare Forza to GT. Killzone on the other hand didnt win any awards or was considered the best of anything. So comparing it to halo is just idoitic.

Killzone 2 won Best PS3 Shooter from IGN. It won Best Competitive Multiplayer, Best Sound Design, Most Improved Sequel and Best Shooter from GameSpot editor's choice. It won Best Graphics in the G-Phoria 2009 Awards. It also took in Game of the Year from Gamereactor.

The soundtrack also won gaming's first Ivor Novello Award.

 

 

Yeah, your comments also qualify as massive fail, like you so love to say.

I don't really care about the little thing you and Prophecy have going on, but I thought I'd be annoying and just list a few awards and stuff Killzone 2 received:

Technical Innovation in AI and best AI in a AAA Game

http://aigamedev.com/open/editorial/2009-awards-results/

The Roses Design Awards - The Best Use of Animation

http://www.joystiq.com/2009/11/02/killzone-2-cg-intro-wins-roses-design-awards/

The 55th Annual Ivor Novello Award for Best Original Video Game Score

http://www.gamepolitics.com/2010/05/21/killzone-2-wins-ivor-novello-award

It also won some other stuff, but I can't be bothered looking. As for Killzone 2 not being the best at anything, what exactly is Halo 3 the best at? You must be including the PC into this, because from the top of my head I can already claim that Killzone 2 is the most technically impressive FPS on consoles.

Careful, someone will bring up the scale of Halo games and the numbers of players it has going on in a single map as proof that the engine it's using is more capable than Killzone 2's or anything else on consoles.  ¬_¬

Conveniently forgetting anything about MAG and its 256 players games.

WTF is MAG? Don't start making things up, it makes us Sony fanboys look much worse than we already do. Halo can do all sorts of crazy shit, 60 player online matches, 100 enemies on screen (The enemies are also twice as smart as every other enemy in any game ever), stage creation!! and it's all perfectly mapped to the 360 controller to give you that ultimate 360 awesomeness that can only be found on Halo: Reach!! (until Gears comes out of course).

MAG, the game that doesnt have any AI to process. Oh yes that game. When people talk about Huge levels and enemies onscreen, they refer to the epic single player Reach is doing. Not only is the AI improved, but scalable. And they have further increased the amount of units onscreen, whilst providing high quality visuals that GT thought was CGI lol. And I forgot, the biggest 'playable' single player levels on consoles for an FPS.

If you read through my post, I was agreeing with you. You have to back up your allies, otherwise your foes will be dominant. An age old war is raging and us VG Chartz guys that agree with each other must stick together and help spread the word on all that is 360 and awesome. Band with me my brother and Sony shall fall beneath our feet and their hardware shall burn in the deepest pits of hell. What say you Selnor?
