Forums - Microsoft - Halo dethroned, COD new shooter king. IMO

It's time for both Halo's and COD's decline. Bungie and the old Infinity Ward have moved on.

I know right? CoD's penis is so much larger than Halos' is.

Sales wise...for sure!

Every other aspec...not too sure!



Halo series old but still good. COD series is meh, annual update in the series is too generic. Gears of War series is probably the best shooter series on the 360. 

Gears of War 3 looks awesome and that is a must buy day one game.

In Halo's Reach 1st week it did more than 4mil. Black Ops did more than 5. thats just the 360 version!! A lot of people (myself included) thought there was no way Halo would get beat on its own home turf.  Now as it stand Halo Reach is sitting at a little more than 6mil and COD BO is a little more than 5mil. It took Halo two months to reach (no pun intended) that number. I dont think its crazy to believe that 360 version of Black Ops will catch up and pass Halo. I give it two months and im prepared to eat crow for being wrong about Halo beaten COD

 

I completely agree with you.  I am still a big fan of Halo regardless, but COD in multiplayer is just amazing.  There is a never a dull moment while you are on COD multiplyaer since the original Modern Warfare.  Halo is just so... quite.  Literally.  Listen to someone's speakers on Halo then listen to COD.  What was that?  That was the sound of a B-52 dropping down 20 tons of explosives across the map.



V:  And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, Adam Sutler. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. Last night I sought to end that silence.

Fool. Halo was never shooter king to begin with.

Doom is. And always will be. So cease this foolish foolishness at once.

Now if you mean numbers king . . .


i agree with this, minus Doom was dethroned by Half-Life ages ago.


and Rage shall dethroned Half Life (well, I hope)

Meh, I don't believe that one bit... I don't think ID still has it.


I agree with this, the moment John Carmack and John Romero parted ways, Id lost their mojo, Carmack and co. still managed to pull of Quake 3, but afterwards they didn't do anything really great...



Im talking strictly sales here. THe reason I brought up Reach and BO is because the release dates were so close to each other. I dont think these franchises had games that released so close to each other before. at least i dont think so. plus this was supposed to be the last hurrah for Bungie on Halo. Maybe im wrong but i thought that would carry a little more weight. Im not trying to crap on Halo fans soup, but a lot of people were sure (me included) that Halo Reach would have a bigger debut than COD BO 360 version ALONE. that didnt happen and now I have some crow to eat. something even more interesting is how close the PS3 version debuted next to Reach. I think there is 10,000 difference, thats not that large IMO
