For the love of God, why is the final boss fight in Halo 3 shooting a laser at a floating ball? Why? Horrible.</p>

I heard Halo 3 was the same thing as the previous games...</p>

Yup, boring and repetitive. I never actually played the first two games</p>

God of War II is one of the best games I've ever played and the series itself is just incredible. I can't wait to see what they do with the newer systems for the third game, because they were able to make a game on PS2 that was better than the majority of the stuff that's come out for PS3 and Xbox 360.</p>
 
GTA wont surpass Halo 3 in sales. Halo franchise is untouchable. I could really care less about the storyline and campaign mode. Its the multiplayer on the best CONSOLE for online gaming with the best COMMUNITY (Xlive) that make Halo 3 such a fantastic game. Halo 3 will be played online and on Lan tourneys for years to come.</p>

The only game that I think people are addicted to more online is WOW. And I wont touch that game. I seen people lose girlfriends, wives, and jobs because of that damn game! too much for me IMO... thats just all out.</p>

I hate to break it down to you if your a Xbox 360 fan or if you own a Xbox 360 because the next God Of War game which is God Of War 3 will be only for the PS3, And thats why I bought a PS3.</p>

What the hell are you supposed to do with the skulls? Do you just pick them up and drop them, and then you get it? Or do you have to carry it to the end of the lvel? Do you have to bash someone with the skull to activate it?</p>
 
Okay, I bought Halo 3. It doesn't dissapoint, they fixed all the problems with Halo 2 and went beyond. I'm loving this game so far.</p>

gta4 will be good, no doubt about that. but halo has its own fans, its an online game (and its breaking all the records at it too).</p>

As for me i still prefer counter strike for online, so much fun even though the game is like 6 years old, its still damn good.</p>

I'm not an online multiplayer type of gamer. I play Halo mainly with friends in co-op campaign. So for me, because the campaign mode in Halo 3 is so strong, this is an awesome game. The level design, pacing, variety, lighting effects, sound, graphics, and difficulty are all perfect. Anybody who says otherwise probably has issues. People can look at the Sistine Chapel ceiling and not be impressed, but that is their own failing.</p>
 
Also, I love the GTA series, but it won't surpass Halo in terms of sales or media attention. And probably not critical acclaim, either, with Halo 3 currently pulling down a sickening 9.5 on Gamespot (second only to Gears at 9.6) and the same rating at IGN.</p>

Halo and GTA both have "M" for mature ratings but the market for Halo pulls in younger and casual gamers. The adult-oriented and time consuming content in GTA results in a smaller market.</p>

GTA will still be a big game, especially if they take the time during this delay to really deepen the content, but I don't see it having the widespread appeal of Halo.</p>

Do you mean overall?

If you mean short term, I don't believe the delay will really help them add content that will get the gamer to buy it right away.

Overall, GTA WILL sell more than Halo 3 (GTA3, GTA:VC and GTA:SA have all sold between one and two million copies more than Halo 2). GTA benefits from being multiplatform a lot, but it's not something everyone has to have on the frist day. I don't think.

Oh I know. I'm anxious to see what they can do with the new systems. I'm expecting something mind-blowing.</p>

I could be wrong, I dunno.</p>

In Japan the sales of 360's spiked when Halo was released, so I think that is an indicator that people are buying the system to play Halo. Will all those same people buy GTA when it comes out? Will people buy a 360 because they want to play GTA?</p>

I'm a bigger GTA fan than I am a Halo fan so I wish Rockstar the best, but so far I am just not sensing the buzz for GTA4 that was there when San Andreas and Vice City came out.</p>
