Out Sell Halo 3?

Gears to out sell Halo?

I think so, Considering Halo was sold on hype, I have no doubt it will.

Discuss.

Nah, I doubt that will happen. Gears of War may be a great game, but I doubt it has more fans than Halo.

As good as Gears 2 may be, I doubt it will outsell Halo, that game just has too many fanboys.

re: Out Sell Halo 3?

Halo 3 was hyped for 3 years, This is only being hyped for 9 months.
Plus, Halo gained lots of fans because it was superior anything else of its time. Gears is popular but not to everybody. only 3/10 xbox owners have it.
If HALO 3 were to have been released as a newcomer it would have been rated 4/10. It was garbage in every way and only got the reviews it did because of the hype

Halo 3 is overrated, but it isn't a terrible game. I'm sure that even if it was to brought out now, it will still be overrated.

re: Out Sell Halo 3?

Ok it isn't terrible but it was getting ratings of 9.5 etc and it sucked ass compared to games which only had ratings of about 7.
I mean what was wrong with those graphics they were so damn pixelated it was unbelievable. LiKe playing James Bond on PS1

For the amount of money and time they had, they cocked it up big time.

No, I don't think it will. Halo has too many blind fanboys.

Gears 2 has almost ZERO chance of outselling Halo 3, but it'll be a lot more entertaining and fun.

One thing that gears has on Halo is the fun you can have with friends.
Because it is so slow paced there is lots of time for jokes and lots of time for mindless fun

re: Out Sell Halo 3?

What are you saying, Nate190? Halo has more opportunities to play with more of your friends.
If you're going to keep on ranting about how Halo sucks, make sure you have a decent excuse. Its known for rate scores for an reason.

Just to be sure, I'm more than a Gears fan than Halo. Gears has a chance in making about two thirds of what Halo 3 has sold. I don't think they can reach more of the potential of passing that, I hope that they can.

Question is, what game have you been playing?
Cant you see, in gears there is hiding and waiting for the round to be finished once you are dead. Hence it is slow paced. Fast paced multis are once in which you die and are back to life straight away.(Halo COD 4)
Maybe you should think about what you are saying before you go correcting me.

Dude, Gears is fast as hell. I'm not saying Halo and CoD4 is slow paced. But sitting around after death does not make the game slow paced. The actual battles are incredibly intense. There's a lot more strategy and thinking involved. Also, it takes a lot less shots to kill someone, meaning you're gonna be running around all the time. Sitting around waiting is not a good way to play the game. Maybe you need to think too.

OK
Graphics Sucked
Story Sucked
Multi maps sucked
New weapons sucked (bar spartan laser)
Energy sword zooming sucked
Hammerzeit sucked
one melee kills the opponent whilst about 30 bullets dont?
that enough for you?

And just to be sure, i didn't say it sucked atall before your message did I?
I enjoyed it for a while but it became impossible to go back to once i began playing quality games again.



Maybe you need to think too.


Dude, I hate the hiders.
I never hide, i would much rather lose than hide like a dumbass.

Its so obviouislly more slow paced thats a fact. Nobody is saying that is a bad thing so why are you defending the fact that you think it is fast paced.

Besides i can go pee when playing gears and return still alive. In a fast paced game that would not be possible.

Anyway i have better things to do than argue about something as petty as this.
