Subject: PS2 "KillZone" better than Halo 2?

-S

There are 15-20 million xbox owners and almost half if not that, own Halo. Not one PS2 game has come close to that percentage, yet many games have outsold Halo because there are about 80 million owners out there.

Good golly, are you ever wrong.

You are correct that there are roughly 15-20 million XBoxes sold globably at this time. However, Halo has only recently passed the 4 million sales mark.

This means that, to date, Halo has only sold about a third of what Final Fantasy X sold globally. In fact, Final Fantasy X sold half of what Halo's total sales are- in two days. That's a number no percentage can touch.

While you're hoping that percentages are the name of the game, it's not. Microsoft could use percentages only to cover for the fact that there are still three to four times as many ps2's as there are XBoxes. However, they can't use the percentages to defend the XBox's decline in countries in America. Nor could they use it to honestly say "this game did better" than a blockbuster PS2 title which sells an order of magnitude higher than the XBox game in question. It simply doesn't work that way. Percentages are used to decieve, but revenue is where it matters.

You're all saying it's not for some good reasons, but you're forgetting some of the more important reasons. Halo2 not only got a graphical upgrade, but it also got an AI upgrade. Remember, enemies are alot smarter now, the graphics engine is extremely good now, has a great story, etc... Kill-Zone has what? I "-blam!--filter" on it to make it look grungy so it will at least look a very small amount better than the actual crap it really is. Kill-Zone isn't going to be a "Halo Killer" or a "Halo2 Killer" at all, not by a long shot. Stating it would be was just a publicity stunt to get the stupid game some recognition.

I'm sorry to say, but Killzone won't even come close to achieving Halos' greatness. It'll probably be pretty good, sure, but it won't be great. Even the guys over at penny-arcade think its sub-par, they made a comic about it, I laughed, and all was well :)


Can I have a link to this comic, I want to read it :)

lmao.. theres no way..well unless....well...no nevermind that couldnt happen. Im in no way a fanboy..i ahve ps2 xbox and gamecube.. Gamecube has some cool games but idk... PS2 defenetaly owns me with Gran Turismo 3 but when forza motorsports comes out and Gran Turismo 4..well i think forza might beat GT4 but theres no way to know yet..but i doubt PS2 will ever beat Xbox in the FPS department... ya Sony has WAYY more experiance but Microsoft defenetaly showed they knew what they were doin when they took over the world with Halo..so to sum it all up...no way..
