How exactly does one dethrone another game?

Is it by popular opinion? Reviews?

Cause I don't think Unreal will beat Halo in popularity, or sales, or the number of multiplayer hours sunk into it. I'm sure it'll be prettier though, and the mods should be impressive.

Matters which realm of gaming your talking about, Halo has a horrible professional gamer fan base, because the controls rightly suck ass for the PC versions. Halo 3 to us is a joke basically. Unreal has a massive following between console and PC that dwarfs Halo in a shadow the size of the colossus (pun intended). Halo just isnt that great of a game, frankly its piss poor horrid when compared to Unreal, Counter Strike, Half-Life, Goldeneye 007 on the N64, Gears of War, Battlefield, and most Tom Clancy games. Hell I have more fun playing online blackjack or poker then playing Halo on the Xbox, Xbox 360, or PC.

Epic has the advantage because they boosted their console fanbase with Gears of War so its almost a curtain that Xbox fans will see that UT3 is on the PS3, supports mod, cross-platform player with PC, and supports mouse and keyboard will buy a PS3 for the game over a new PC like me that will be able to run it on the ultra settings.

Plus Unreal has always been on the same base as Halo has with it's reviews. This time around it has more then enough to top even BioShock's high as hell reviews.

 

@fuzzmosis- Nope, I buy all my own stuff, I bought my PS3, I bought my 3 year old alienware laptop, I'm paying for my PC. It's called knowing how to use your skill set to your advantage, and piss of the firedog techs at the sametime, im banned from going into circuit city because I steal their business.


 you really think your awesome don't you. "halo 3 to us is a joke" jeez thats such a lame thing to say. I wanted this game till you said that, annoying 15 year olds on XBL are better than 25 year old elitists. UT3 better than halo for you and your "pro gamer fanbase" but other people will always like different games. TBH UT3 probably deserves better reviews than halo3 from what ive seen. But ill wait till i play them and see what I personally enjoy most.
