You don't get it do you? The masses will take whatever you feed them as fact. Look at haze. Before it came out lots of people hyped it up. One review for it was bad and then everyone hated it without even playing it.

Look at halo, microsoft and a few pin heads were like "zomg this is the best game, evaR!" People decided to get it. Wasted their money and convinced themselves that it was amazing and clearly the best game ever.

People are sheep. My friend pre ordered killzone 2, was waiting for it so greatly. One of her friends said the demo sucked, so she canceled her preorder.

If someone in power tells you what is good or what isn't, then you will believe them.

I shall call this the halo effect from now on. :]

So you are saying that the 300,000 people playing halo 3 a year and a half later, are playing because of hype?
