Isn't that the truth but my favorite thing is when you beat someone in Halo, and they say "get a life". I always wonder why people think that quantity equals quality. I don't get it I play less than a lot of people and still can whip 95% of their a55es!

heh...while my statement was more of a joke, part of the reason for it that it needs some level of balance and shifting dynamics. It would be no fun if everyone had a gun that can do everything well. Part of the fun of Halo is the decisions you have to make in which weapons to carry. Some FPS games allow you to spawn with any weapon and that can take away some of the urgency needed in trying to take out the "big gun" or to try and get the powerful weapons as soon as possible.

True Living proof of this is basically all Rainbow Six games. Although I did like Vegas a lot, but it gets boring after a while.

I hate power weapons in multiplayer FPS. Unless the weapons used like in BF1942 and COD to destroy tanks and the occasional 'shoot a round into the building to clear it out.' There is no skill in using rocket launchers and the like to kill you the other guy. Extreme damage and extreme area of effect. I think games would be better if rocket launchers and such only have one round to fire. One of the main reasons I like CS is because the weapons are fairly balanced. Each have noticeble weaknesses and strengths that are pretty even except for a few weapons.

edit: I ment to quote an earlier comment of yours sorry lol

Wow, good thing I read this cause I didn't know another Ace Combat was coming out so soon! I have all the PS2 ones and played them thoroughly, damn near made me want to go into the Air Force too.

I was kinda pissed though, seeing as all the AC's before hand were Sony exclusives and I really don't want to shell out for a PS3, but then wham! Xbox Live logo. Oh ****, XBLive multiplayer on Ace Combat! Oh Yes.

I was just browsing around a few months ago and saw it. The only reason I wanted a PS3 was for the AC series. We already started to form an online squadron at my work.

I'm also waiting for GTA IV, but AC6 is the priority.

No option for NCAA Football 08?

Of these, probably Halo 3.I enjoy the storyline of the Halo series and hopefully will get some questions answered.

I think the biggest question on everyone's mind is if Master Chief is totally gay or does he just like little boys?

I'll post up my "list" too, since everyone else is.

Half Life 2 Episode 2GTA 4Fallout 3Starcraft 2Final Fantasy Tactics A2 and Final Fantasy Tactics War of the Lions (not a big FF fanatic, but the Tactics games are superb--although the Judges in FFTA did get very frustrating)Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings (played an imported version and it was fun...I just wish I had known what the crap was going on...)

COD4 will be a great game I have to agree with you on that, but Killzone2 I don't think will be good just because the first one didn't deliver at what people were expecting.

The COD's are fun LAN games but I could never get into online play for some reason. Maybe COD4 will be different but COD1 and 2 just wasnt as fun unless you had someone beside you yelling "GOD DAMN IT!!!"

Just saw the trailer for Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. Looks pretty good. The graphics certainly look improved.

i think (hope) this will be the best cod so far. the step up into modern warfare is going to make it stand out. i like WW2 based games, but every company has one. i like the way this one looks.

i noticed that someone mentioned crysis. that game will be unbelievable. ive been reading about it on some fan site or something. most of the stuff is speculation, but some of it has to hold water. if so, i cant wait. i never mentioned it, because im looking forward to the ps3 releases.

lol make it stand out? Umm ok so instead of being a WWII game it is going to compete with G.R.A.W. How is that standing out? I just don't think that is going to happen I do think it is going to be a great game but I don't think it will stand out too much more than it already does.
