GOW was pwnz!

Off topic chat. Basically anything that doesn't concern halo or halo modding can go here.

Halo is almost 4 years older...Halo was one of the first game with PS 2.0.

This is like comparing Halo to MarioKart64.

Just got the game an hour or two ago and all I can say is...holy shit. The gameplay is fucking amazing, and the graphics are incredible. The only thing I don't really like is that it takes so many bullets to kill an enemy on hardcore.

You can't talk about amount of bullets it takes to kill an enemy till you've played it on insane....Sometimes it's a bit too ridiculous for my liking.

I have to say, the final boss is pretty damn challenging - or I must be doing something wrong. I've put almost 20 headshots in with the sniper rifle, about half of which have the damage boost from active reload, and he doesn't show any signs of stopping.

Make sure he doesn't have his bats around him. I think they are a shield. If you can't get the bats to go away just throw a grenade at him and the light will scare them away.

Weird, I kept getting tons of shots in and he would kill me, but when I finally killed him, I had only gotten 5 or 6 headshots and nailed him with a 'nade.

Yes but Mario Kart phailed from the beginning.
Also, I was including Halo 2. I still think halo is awsome, but god damn does Gears of War beat it by a lot.

I don't think there is any comparison to draw to begin with; even with Halo 3.
Halo is a first person run-and-gun shooter
Gears is a third person tactical stop-and-pop shooter

It's a great game... if any of you guys want to play on live with me just send an invite to ExcalHM. Multiplayer is great... and so far, PS3 has nothing on Gears of War.

It's all about the physics. No other game has that capability to make reactive elements in game. 3D Grass now, what could be next? Reactive crowd when a Ball "Accidentally" gets thrown into the Crowd?

Those things would be cool but i would prefer things in the gameplay to be fixed over those small things.

The try glitching it. Dark Helmet, famous Halo trickster, has already completed the first out-of-the-map GoW glitch.

i think bass is right. COD's are always great graphics. and the models just make you drool. and the animations, are just awesome. and nobody can forget the sounds it really feels like your sitting there in the battle.
