the 2 games are so much different. halo is more arcade. killzone 2 is more of a war simulation like call of duty.

so killzone 2 is the winner for me

I have only played Halo on the pc and for me KZ2 is slightly the better game so no killer, it just stands in the corner calling Halo silly names



 

 assumption is the mother of all f**k ups

As a game it destroys every Halo.

Sales do not reflect it because it does not have a cult following.

 

Halo doesn't have a cult following. It has a large, and loyal fanbase. Prove to me how as a game it destroys Halo. This cannot be proven.

CoD will never kill halo >_>

By the term "kill" when refering to this... people mean by either quality or sales.

CoD4 killed Halo on both. 

 

Xbox Live activity for March 23

------------------------------------

1    Call of Duty: WaW
2    Halo 3
3    Call of Duty 4
4    Gears of War 2
5    RESIDENT EVIL 5
6    GTA IV
7    FIFA 09
8    Left 4 Dead
9    Halo Wars
10    Fallout 3

 

They all eventually fall to Halo. COD 4 did, and soon WaW will share the same fate. If KZ2 was on a list for playablity and replay value Halo 3 would've already vanquished it effortlessly. Halo has remained in the top two spots for the past 2 years.

Frankly Killzone 2 is not a Halo killer. If Halo didn't set a benchmark in FPSs and online play there probably wouldn't even be a Killzone 2. This is a dumb discussion I don't know why anyone gives a shit.

I don't know my FPS history too well, but I believe that Half Life 2 set the benchmark for FPS and Team Fortress set it for online.  Also games like Quake and Unreal tournament.  Halo did bring these concepts to the consoles, however, so it can be credited for that.

 

Halo did regenerating health, which is in just about every FPS now. I'd also say Halo is the main reason why vehicle sections are virtually required in FPS games, if it wasn't one of the first to do it, then it was certainly the one to popularize it.

Quake was really the title that set the bar for online games. The Team Fortress style of class based play has seen a bit of a recent resurgence, but it wasn't that prevenlant up until a few years ago. Of all the Half-Life mods, Counter Strike did the most, such as a two weapon limit (something halo helped to popularize as well)

Of course Halos biggest impact is in the footprint its left on console multiplayer, not just online but LAN as well.

Excellent post sieanr.
