Halo 3 news in new mag.

Over at jeux-france.com they show the front cover of the new issue of Xboxworld magazine..

Its Halo 3 with the caption "PS3 is dead..welcome to the REAL next gen."

Just an fyi...
 
Are you asking, or are you just thinking out loud (which wouldn't be worth posting)?

Obviously someone was going to post this anyway. I noticed it wasnt on here yet, so there you go. Just an fyi, nothing to cry about.
 
You know that game..where two people take a bat and grab the hilt of the bat and try to top eachother until the first person that reaches the top of the bat wins? This is the exact tactic both MS and Sony are using. Now lets ask ourself something...what OTHER PS3 game hasn't been shown that would get the moniker "X360 is dead....heres the REAL next gen". Then whats after THAT PS3 game that would be released by a X360 dev that would top that game...

All this makes me giggle :LOL:

Oh yeah...if you do visit this site to check out the cover...wait till you see what mag its comging from :oops::LOL:

Note: I actually can't wait to see the screens though...but it leaves me wondering...MS seems to be deviating from Halo as their flagship FPS and going to PDZ. I still think Halo will reign supreme.

Seems to me that there would be no reason for MS to start hyping Halo3 now as they are going to sell out all the X360s they can make for the next few months anyway. They can let the PDZs and PGR3s have their day and start the Halo3 frenzy closer to the PS3 launch.
 
I'm comparing the Halo series against PDZ...and i'm wondering what (graphically) Bungie can do with Halo. To me, Halo and Halo 2 were not the most impressive (graphically) console games. I don't really remember anything special about the textures of the game or the models (which seemed blocky). The gameplay and how quick and fast it was is what made Halo...Halo (IMHO).

Its going to be interesting to see if they bring the series to a PDZ visual quality.

Compare Halo to Red Faction, both came out at the sametime and it's obvious why people where so impressed with the GFX of Halo.

As for what Bungie can do.....how about this?

I also feel the timing is a bit off.

Unless of course, they don't have anything to show at all...

Edit: ^^^^ what he said ;)
 
I don't see why they wouldn't start a little Halo 3 hype before launch.

As long as they make it clear the game won't be seen for at least a year it shouldn't impact PD0's sales at all, and may help provide the extra 'push' for PS3 hold-outs.

btw, it's rumoured bungie IS working on a new IP....

Remember the orignal Halo was a port from the Mac... Halo 2 was a for xbox design. I think Bungie even moreso than Rare is MS' premier 1st party... there is probably no telling how much time, energy, money and access MS is throwing at Bungie right now because as far as carry-overs from this gen are concerned, Halo is MS' ace. Christmas 2006 at earliest although I think a 2007 release is best.
