Hey, I was just on HBO and checked out a link to this page. Its about PS2 vs Other consol games, in this page specifically Halo 2. I can honestly say, That I have never EVER seen a PS2 hardcore pick a game for xbox over one of their own. About time they accepted the truth!

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

Killzone is intended to be a Halo-killer and that's what it sorta is.... but to little to late. Let it be a Halo-killer... it won't come close to a Halo2-killer.

hahahaha good.

I just wish that Halo 2 would have been made for the Xbox2. Xbox2 releases sometime in 2005, so after one year of being king, Halo 2 will become outdated and will graphically suck compared to newer, better games. Damnit! Unless they make a new version of Halo 2 for Xbox 2 when Xbox2 ships... Naw... Halo 3 would be better!

To Frag Masters comment:

yea I made a post about that earlier.... Its tragic really.... I can only hope that with continual updates and enhancements from downloadable content it will stay ontop. You have to remember though, that PS3 and Gamecube 2 (or wutever) will just be getting on par graphically with xbox so we may have a fightin chance :) (I think it even mentions that in this artical.)

I think the term halo killer is stupid. Every supposed halo killer has sucked. Developers should focus on new, better, and more inventive ways to make an fps not just have the goal of beating halo.

The only bad thing about halo 1 was it was a bit repetitive.Like Betrayels is same as AOTCR but backwards. But to be fair Bungie only had 5 months to make xbox halo and they maneged to make the repeated levels in an interesting way which kept everybodys attention.

Just kidding Enlightend one, I used to have a PS2, and there are alot of cool things about them, like MGS3 and GT4, but if i had to choose, i'd go for XBOX cuz of Halo and Halo2 (my favorite type of games, FPS, and these are the best of the best, hands down), sorry to piss you off PS2 is cool.

dose anybody know why killzone is supposed to be good? its a single player, non vehicle, regular FPS. that doesnt sound to special to me. It sounds like another Brute-Force like hype.

No, i'm talking about the one in the jungle, where you can hang from trees and shoot, and where alligator skin, MGS3=Splinter Cell PT goodness X 500 plus a whole lot more=not even close to the number of hours i'll play Halo 2.

Indeed. Where else would I get my fix for Final Fantasy, or Gran Turismo?

Nick S has a point. If you like a game and it comes for a certain console, then youll play that console. Before Xbox came out I played PS2 all the time, and when Xbox came out I bought it just to play Halo. I still just use my XB to play Halo and R63. Halo 2 is the only Xbox title that Im waiting for this year, the others consist of GT4, GTA: San Andreas, Killzone, and Kingdom Hearts 2. If those games came out for Xbox first, then Ide probably buy them for Xbox, except GT4(the Xbox controllers suck for playing racing games).

BTW, the only reason that OPM and other media outlets reffered to Killzone as Halo-killer is because Halo is the benchmark for console FPS. Why would you wanna call a game a Time Splitters2-killer?

playing a first person shooter with a ps2 controller is not very comfortable, plus killzone won't have nearly as many online features halo 2.

Or when youre at a LAN party and you want to use one of only 2 S controllers, everybody gets on your case about it. I dont know why they made the first XB controller so big. If MC was really thinking, they wouldve known that the older audience that would buy XB had been playing games since NES, and that every controller since has been almost the same dimensions. So why would they make a controller the size of one of the Dreamcast controllers? Also, who didnt see the demise of Dreamcast coming from a mile away?

BTW, overall most controllers are pretty good, excpet the GC one. Why didnt they put dual analog sticks? It istn N64.

I tell you what, don't worry about a game like Killzone being a Halo killer. You should worry more about Half Life 2. Half Life 2 is hyped to be a Halo 2 killer, not just a Halo killer. I doubt it will happen, Halo 2 rules all, but Half Life 2 looks to be a damn good game and the people at Valve know what they're doing and have had close to 5years to do it.

Yeah. But a lot of people who are close to the gaming world agree that that was actually a good thing. They were about to delay Half Life 2 again around the time the source code was stolen and if they did, their fans would be pissed. I think things like that are why Bungie is so security crazy about Halo 2, they don't want anything bad like a source-code steal to happen although I don't see how anyone wants the source-code only four months before the game actually ships, it's illogical.
