Halo 3????

[WickeDKlowN]

Heck, if it weren't for MS, we would be playing Halo on our PCs.

I really would doubt that Halo 3 would come out on PS3 for many reasons, but mainly because of the Xbox life combatibility. Xbox life has proven to be the best online-console connection, and I believe that Bungie is aiming towards multiplayer now.

Also, you must not have completed the game if you think the Halo franchise is done. I would not be surpised to eventually see a Halo 5. I wouldn't spoil the game, mostly because I don't remember (haven't played single player in a longo timeo). I just know I wasn't happy with the ending.

Technically, there could be 7 Halo's and it would make sense since there are 7 rings. And if the games stay as good as they are, and don't turn to crap so they can release them faster to make a quick buck, I wouldn't mind one bit.

And Halo is on PC...

I think Xbox corp or bungie would be a fool not to release HALO3 on PS3 its such a great oppurtunity to capatilize on.

A lot of people buy Xbox BECAUSE of Halo. Consoles are successful based on the games put out for them. I never recall people lining up at 12 at midnight for a videogame until Halo 2 (yeah I was one of em). If you make Halo 3 available to every system, it'd hurt their sales, as well as every other company making games for Xbox.

Chipper - are you chipper259 on XBL?

Anyhow - if it weren't for Microsoft then Halo would ONLY be on the Macintosh

Bungie originally developed it's games exclusively on the Mac. Another useless tidbit of information for the day...

aparently some of you guys have no clue about video game markets. Anyways if Halo3 was to be released for the PS3 and the 360 MS would make a killing, why do you ask simple b/c Sony and MS dont make **** selling consoles they make roughly $3 for each console sold, so where do they get there money from simple, accesories and games. Now if Halo2 was released on PS2 MS and Bungie would make a boatload more b/c PS2 has kicked the living crap out of MS sales on consoles, which means more consoles means larger customer target.

As for the PS3 it surpasses the 360 in every level, not to mention it was have better everything, better video card, processors.

killzone 2 is gonna be awsome!!! i think its suppose to be the Halo "killer" .....looks pretty sweet ...


but im a little sad i wont be able to play PDzero or halo3 or ghostrecon3 oh welll

[FlawleZ]

ya i was going to say

also they are making metal gear solid 4 for the xbox 360!!!!

i dont want the new ps3 i was reading that the specks are nothing compared to the 360

Have you even looked at the PS3 stats, or are you just blowing smoke since this is mostly a Halo/Xbox thread? The PS3 CLEARLY has better stats than the XBOX 360. Just the CELL alone is 5 times more powerful than the most powerful PC processors of today. They're going to release a new version of Halo and to release it when the PS3 comes out would be smart, but the PS3 is going to be top dawg as far as performance goes and developers will go with the most capable machine for years to come because in all reality, the games are only as good as the developers.

Yes, there could be 7 Halos, I was just using the 5 as a example, and yes, it is on PC. Originally (before Bungie was bought by MS) it was going to come out on the PC and nothing else.

No, I am UncoolChipper.

Actually it was going to come out on the Mac and nothin else.

Just nit-picking...

No, I am UncoolChipper.

Cool, I'll send you a friend request some time soon.

HALO 3 IS FOR SUCKAS! SUCKA M-C'S! I'M GONNA SUCKA YOU!






I jest, I jest.

Actually, the cell runs at 3.2 GHZ, whereas the fasted AMD processor is 3.8 GHZ. For a console, though, 3.2 GHZ is FAST, considering it doesn't have to run windows, ect. If you wanna see what the next gen consoles will look like, just look at the fastest computer out right now. For comparison, a PS2 is 300 mhz, and an Xbox is 700 mhz.

If I were to buy a console, I would get a PS3, simply because its easier to play a FPS on a computer, and I already own PS2 games, so it would be logical to get a PS3. Plus the Halo games will come out on the PC

[Chris42050]

It is true that the game companies, Sony and Microsoft dont make money on the consoles, they do make money off of the games. Since Microsoft owns bungie, It would be stupid to release it on PS3 because that was the main game that got people to buy the original xbox which in turn got them to buy games for the xbox. For every game a game company sells for a console they have to pay a fee to the manufature (microsoft, sony). So, if the only game keeping people buying your machine is Halo why would you put it on a rival machine. No one would buy your console and you would have no one buying games for it and you would get no money.

Have you ever played halo on xbox? it's almost the easiest thing to aim on for any console. The auto tracking is set up perfectly.

The only frachise that I miss on the PS systems are the Armored Core series and the Final Fantasy. I honestly could care less about the rest. The main reason that I hate the PS is that the loading time sucks, what was it on GTA like 2 minutes everytime you go through each area. That part killed the game for me.

[WickeDKlowN]

In San Andreas, I don't think there is any loading(well, it loads in the background).

I remember Armored Core. I don't remember what it was, but I remember many hours spent playing it.

Ha. Let's see... IGN's thoughtshttp://xbox360.ign.com/articles/617/617951p1.html
IGN's conclusion: When you break down the numbers, Xbox 360 has provably more performance than PS3. Keep in mind that Sony has a track record of over promising and under delivering on technical performance.

Please, before making claims remember, "The truth is that both systems pack a lot of power for high definition games and entertainment."

Let's see the games before we say one system is better than the other.
