- - Halo 1 2 or 3 when it comes out (https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=122457)

Thats one thing we have in commen we do not know how. :rotfl: Btw the consle wars and halo 3 review were very funny.

Own all 3 Halo titles. Halo 3 in HD looks fantastic. I have to say I've never laughed so much playing a game as I have playing H3.

My 2 sons love to get on the new ATVs in H3 and race (on the new version of Zanzibar). I love to get the Brute Shot and have "fun with Physics". The Brute Shot doesn't kill them, but it does cause some crazy reactions from the vehicles. They are so focused on racing that my griefing becomes the game, and is hilarious. Until you try it, you won't get it, but it may be the hardest I've laughed playing a game...2 hours straight...laughed every time.

Its not Rainbow Six, but it is fun; and isn't that what a game is supposed to be?

The mongoose right? That thing :rock: becuase it is fast and you can have 2 people on at the same time.

However, globally it is a different story because the data collected by MS & Sony differ in how it's compiled. MS track consoles shipped & Sony track console sold. The figures are always debateable and are extremly hard to compare, don't forget the 360 had nearly 18 months head start over the PS3.

No, I don't think sales will improve significantly; to my knowledge they never have in the past at at this point in a console's life cycle; If you check this historical comparison, you'll not that the PS3's to-date sales are actually worse than the much-maligned Nintendo GameCube's were at the same point in it's life. Face it, Sony screwed up big time here, they wen't from #1 to dead last in a single generation. The fact that the PS3 was out later than the 360 yet still is selling only half the number of units is definatly a strake against it: According to the market research firm NPD, 276,000 360s made it to end-users in August, compared to 130,000 PS3s. This Christmas will be do or die time for the PS3, and they don't have a popular sales-driver game like MS has in Halo 3, or Nintendo in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and the longer a console is on the market, the less a "killer app" will boost it's sales (for instance, despite record sales I don't expect Halo 3's impact on the 360's sales to be huge, certainly not the way Halo 1 boosed the original XBox, which was released simultaniously to the console in North America).

BTW, I think it's particularly telling that at my local EBGames, the PS3 is the only console that you can actually pick up on the store floor, and there are always plenty in stock: If you want a 360 or Wii, you have to ask the clerk to get one from the back.

Well, I'm with you Dowly all the way! Theyr all stupid games. Never played No 1, but Halo 2 seems like a crappy rip-off of Red Faction and Halo 3 looks nothing special, the graphics look like F.E.A.R and the multiplayer looks a lot like Quake. Long live Half Life!!!!!! btw, X-Box sucks.
