ps3 fanboys are really annoying... this is from a ps3 only owner that will never buy a 360

 

 

Come again?

He's saying that even though he only owns a PS3, he still thinks that PS3 fanboys are annoying. I disagree, but it's all opinions.

IMHO I personally think that Sony fanboys hype up (perhaps over hype) their own games in their own forums, while there's a lot of MS fanboys come into Sony forums to post troll threads and anti-PS3 threads.

Apparently the current fad right now is to make an thread with a flaimbait, and then criticize Sony fans for reacting to it and defending themselves "aggresively" (despite the fact that they didn't make the thread...), which is the whole purpose of a flamebait (or troll threads, which is to do exactly that. Get people riled up with an OBVIOUS flamebait).



maybe there wont be one, but overal, so far, ps3 has better games coming.

I'm only expecting an 8.5 review score and about 3 million in sales for ODST. I think Killzone 2 has already countered it. 

IGN had some article on game series that had overstayed their welcome a bit, and I think the Halo series was one of them because the mini-pic by the article was of Master Chief.  However, I haven't had much luck trying to find the article since I first saw it, and I didn't read it.

Have you seen worldwide sales this week?  Killzone 2 has countered Halo so well, that in it's 8th week it is being outsold by Halo 3 which has been out 10 times as long. And that's a game with almost 10m copies floating around out there. And you think a brand new expansion is going to lack momentum?

     It's just my opinion, but I do think ODST is going to sell less than any previous Halo (not counting Wars).

 

I think ODST has the potential to become the #1 first week seller past GTA, imho.  The game is expected to be cheaper than the $59.99 price point, and it's a refreshing change for Halo 3 addicts...that spells MASSIVE opening week to me.

Heru..Let's be serios you and me for a bit...It's a brand new Co-op campaign.....and then you can just go online with the ODST Disc as if you were playing your Halo 3 disc....Massive....I think this will prove alot of things not only about Halo...But about Xbox 360...

One thing that will be proven is that M$ isn't using the Haloverse as much as possible.  Nintendo has how many games with it's franchise IP's like Mario?  Personally, I LIKE the Halo lore, as it is interesting Sci-Fi, and imho, there is nothing wrong with expanding your universe.  Look at how many Bond movies there are, and so it's not about volume, it's about quality.  I remember a few years back, when the superhero movie genre got kicked off with Blade and Xmen, and about 3-4 years later, some anal-ysts were predicting that the industry had peaked at Spider-Man...lol...how stupid was that!  So, wrt ODST, it is M$ and Bungie opportunity to expand the Haloverse beyond M/C, who btw is a very compelling character, but as Halo Wars proved, there's more to Haloverse than just M/C.

Report: Halo 3: ODST most desired Xbox 360 game

http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/29/report-halo-3-odst-most-desired-xbox-360-game/



My votes on ODST. But I wanna wait and see what happens. Looking really interesting.

I agree in this thread though.



Stop bashing Halo. It's going to sell a lot.
