I loved COD2 and COD3 but there's no way you can try and spin Killzone 2, a sequel to a very poor game we've only seen in CGI deserving of spot 1 and COD4 which is basically more of the same brilliant gameplay we've seen tonnes of above Halo 3 and yet Halo 2 which was the and its final episode, which we know nothing about should linger in 7th place next to Drake fortune.
and yet for the same reasons (people want to see Halo 3 to see how good it actually looks) you dismiss it. And tbh I'm not even that hyped for Halo 3, my biggest titles (also missing) are Bioshock, Mass Effect, Alan Wake and Lost Odyssey; KZ2 doesn't rank in my top 20.
Did anyone actually watch and listen to the video?
Killzone is anticipated as it is a game we have seen NO FOOTAGE AT ALL, no alpha no beta no nothing, only the CGI sony touted, so everybody is curious. Not so much hyped, but curious.
Everybody has seen halo alpha and beta footage, hell most folk have played Halo 3 beta. Sure many are waiting for some SP info, but because we have had a lot of Halo 3 exposure, and i seems very like the previous 2, then it is lingering at 7.
COD4 is probably in my top 5 of games i am itching to find out more about. We only just got the teasers for it a couple of months ago and everyone was blown away. I don't know anyone who has been blown away by Halo 3. Sure many are hyped, but everybody is treating it as 'yeah it is Halo'
KZ2 got the number one spot through peoples curiosity, from Sony and MS sides and in the middle, just to see if Sony can pull it iff (both sides want to know). That is why it probably is the most anticipated game of E3. I mean what they gonna tell me about Halo 3 i don't know? 'It's a shooter, you fight the covenant across different locations, you have some more vehicles, you have some more guns, plus the MP you have already played' Ooo i think i just wet my pants.
Whereas Killzone nobody except a select few have even seen the game, that has got a lot of peoples anticipation.
You seem happy to dismiss other peoples anticipations, just because yours are not in it.
For the record i thought KZ was ****. I didn't even finish it as i thought the AI was terrible and despised the voice acting. It was yet another example of a great idea done bad. BUT Killzone 2 is a game any info comes out of E3 from i will be clicking that link immediately.
