I think the 360 users need to stop with this Halo Killer nonsense. Halo Wars has yet to prove anything, and the Halo series is no longer the standard bearer for FPS. That responsibility is now owned by Call of Duty. Personally, I think the control scheme implemented in EndWar is the best you will get from a console.

 

They are just trying to create ammo because they have none. So here we have a pretty much unknown game and guess who is hyping it up first?

Not the PS3 fans, I can tell you that.

seraphic was hyping it a while ago and comparing it to fable.   and even the other current thread on this it had sony people comparing it to halo.  you need to stop lying.

 

 

Show me a link where it was referred to as a "Halo Wars Killer"

Comparing two games is one thing, lying and saying that we call it a "Halo Wars Killer" is different.

Seed Studios....who are they anyway?

Either way Seed Studios = Sony. So Sony isn't crocking this up......and just because an RTS is coming to the console doesn't make it a contender to "kill" Halo Wars. Matter of fact, that game is only being (falsely) said to be able to be "killed" because it has the name "Halo" in it. Why isn't Under Siege trying to kill....Red Alert 3?

All in all, just leave Halo alone. I've said this time and time again. You can't Kill" it. It's bigger than just a video game now. If you put Master Chief on Brussell Sprouts...you'd see those sales go through the roof too. That name recognition is the only reason Halo Wars would even fly, as most people RTS suck balls on consoles

Since RTS doesn't interest me, unless it says Command and Cinquer on it...lol, then this really is something I have no interest in regardless of the platform. However, I do agree that "Halo killer" phrases are getting rather ridiculous no matter who starts them. That said, I hope 360 fans enjoy Halo Wars and PS3 fans enjoy Under Seige. But creating threads and fighting over which games will "kill" other games is ludicrous. How do people expect the market to stay alive if we "kill" off major franchises? We're GAMERS folks, so why should we applaud the killing of a huge GAME like Halo, regardless if it's FPS or RTS.

^This. CGI-, your posting has improved greatly. Respect man!

Quality post.



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

RTS on consoles = not fun no matter how you tweak the controls.

 

You havn't played Halo Wars yet .. I'm sure some ignorant people said the same about FPS on consoles before Halo.

GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, Disruptor, Medal of Honor, etc......they all say hi

AND SO IT BEGINS! THE PS3 FANS ARE ALREADY BEING BLAMED FOR CALLING IT A HALO KILLER! DESPITE WHAT EVERYONE IN THIS THREAD SAID SHOULDN'T HAPPEN....IT'S HAPPENING.

Oh God...I hope starcraft doesn't catch wind of this....he'll be back soon.
