When Bungie makes it to step seven, every PS3 is getting sling-shotted first.

microsoft sharing or giving up halo to sony is like saying god is sharing or giving up his powers to humans. it will never happen, sony will probably ruin the series if they bought off halo anyway, just like how the plasmids ruined the people of rapture in bioshock.


sorry mate but jesus had his powers handed from god so.....
That's because Jesus is God........even he says it in the bible.

Giving Halo to Sony for PS3 is like giving a guy your gun, painting a target on your head, and telling him to use it for target practice using your bullets.

The strongest Rivals are also the strongest allies.

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

As far as graphic goes, the PS3 and the Xbox are almost equally matched. I guess you could fit more crap into a BluRay disc which is what you are asking (which everyone else seems to miss about your whole post because they don't read)

It would be nice to see it on the computer. Not too sure about the modders killing matchmaking though. As for modders working on their own campaign levels or multiplayer maps it would be nice.

Yeah, right.

The day this happens is the day I die. Mircosoft would not do this to their flagship series.

No. Never. Halo with finicky uncomfortable controllers. Not happening.

The PS3 controller is terrible for shooters. Halo on PC has already been tried, and its fun, but its pretty much made explicitly for MS consoles. They aren't letting their grip on this franchise go.


would you like to explain yourself? Idk why so many people are talking about the PS3 controller, it is the same as the PS2 and PS1. It is the best controller ever made. It also has the same amount of buttons as the 360 and is shaped ot feel better in the hand. Also if you think about it Microsoft copied the PS controller because of how bad the orignal Xbox controller was.

*shivers*

Oh god, the Duke was awful.

Yeah, PS controllers directly influenced the design of future xbox controllers. Why? Because they fit your hand well, and have good button placement and usage.

get out of here stalker

Why not?
If MS makes a deal with Sony to expand the Halo franchise, then that just means more money for Microsoft and less competition on both ends.

Be genetically different, homie!

Even if it was possible, Bungie would never do it because their fanbase is on the 360

MS would lose money on that deal. you do realize that the only reason the xbox took off was cause of halo. other than halo, the xbox had NOTHING. xbox wasnt popular until halo was in the mix. if halo wasn't created, i really think that 360 as we know it, wouldnt exist. it would much worse than what it is now. so if MS loses that game to sony, they lose a heck of a lot more money than what they would gain.

ps, im not bad mouthing the writer of this post. it could make the gaim more epic, but MS would be dumb to let that happen

Check out Operation Save the Chief

“it's like how they watch reality tv shows.. why spend time watching someone elses life just because they are famous or on tv..??? why not live your own life.. or make you tv happy by playing halo 3?!”
-Pellek212

Wait wait wait. Now I'm confused. If Microsoft ownes Halo. (Which it does.) That means that they make money on each copy of Halo sold (which I'm confident they do). That means that if a Halo title is released on multiple platforms then more copies are sold. That means that Microsoft makes MORE money, not less.

Yeah, a few people might buy PS3's instead of 360s, but some people might buy a 360 after seeing what Halo (and therefore other xbox titles) have to offer.

I personnally wish that more games were multi-platform. There are games for other consoles that I would love to play, but I already invested in a 360. I also think that there are 360 games that people with PS3's would like to play. I wish that more games worked on both consoles so that we could all enjoy good games, instead of fighting over which console has a better games library.



I forgot one thing. Unlocking the potential of any system is done primarily through the software by good programming. Only when you have written a program that cannot be more efficient while still being too complex to be run on a current platform will we have tapped the current systems potential. The thing is it's easier to write slow code and run it on a fast machine than it is to write fast code for a slow machine and get the same performance.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Microsoft owns Halo.

Microsoft are rivals with Sony.

They would never hand over their top money maker to their rival.


Sony did it with GTA I believe. Those used to be Playstation exclusive. Then again, Microsoft ain't Sony (thank God).
Sony never owned Take Two and Rockstar, that is why.

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Ah good. Someone else made my point for me. The difference in hardware is minimal. I do believe the blu-ray disc is rather helpful, but then again, I don't know how much it could possibly help graphically because I don't work with that stuff. I'd love to see both using blu-ray to see if that really made a difference.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Haha, haha, hmmm.... actually what happened (and happens all the time) is MS used the money that you pay them for LIVE, and bribed the creators of GTA not to make GTA a PS3 exclusive. Sony has less exclusive titles, but they also have FREE INTERNET. Let's keep that in mind, shall we? PLUS, Microsoft is willing to sacrifice HD gaming for their fans, YOU, so that they don't have to switch to blu-ray and pay Sony money.

360 may have the games, but there's just no disputing that Sony has the superior hardware- and customer policy. Yes, I own a 360.


Bribed? Seriously? It's called purchasing. That's like saying you are going to the store to bribe Walmart to give you some chicken.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Sorry I didnt clarify I know Halo will NEVER be on the PS3. I was only pointing out my belief in that Halo could be more epic on a more powerful machine.
Yes, this is a given.

  • 10.21.2009 9:26 PM PDT

i don't understand what you are saying when you say that there was a huge jump from halo 1 to halo 2. maybe graphics wise, but the game-play was lowered horribly. the br was no where near as competitively balanced as the halo 1 pistol. even with the double-shot (which bungie hates) the br was only a tenth as useful as the pistol. the halo 3 br is about a tenth of the halo 2 br. it takes nearly two and a half seconds to kill if your bullets are registering at an adverage rate, I.E. a five-shot. if you are lucky and the net-code is only sucking a little bit, then you may be able to pull a four-shot from the range of about melee distance. *sighs as he puts a gun to his head*

Nihilism (from the Latin nihil, nothing) is a philosophical position that argues that existence is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.

Put simply in the words of Nietzsche as "the will to nothingness".

Yay! Darwin's theory at its finest.

Anyway, this topic is idiotic. Why would Microsoft give Sony their killer app? It's corporate seppuku. I guess I was the only one that liked the original Xbox controller it suited my hands better what we have now.

  • 10.21.2009 9:52 PM PDT

Agreed. Playstation is FAR superior.
