Gates: Halo 3 released same day as PS3 launch
« on: May 16, 2005, 10:52:09 AM »
Just thought it was funny, I don\'t give a crap about fagg0t console wars.



Gates in latest TIME mag:

"Note to the hard-core faithful: the next version of Halo will not, repeat not, be ready in time for the launch of Xbox 360. It will be part of the all-important second wave next spring. \'It\'s perfect,\' Gates says, radiant with bloodlust. \'The day Sony launches [the new PlayStation], and they walk right into Halo 3.\'"

It\'s getting pretty nasty. :laughing:

I think this is stupid.
It would have been better if Halo3 was released with XBOX360\'s launch.Since there is no competition yet creating the "wow factor" as soon as possible will convert consumers and boost up userbase.
But if he waits for PS3 to be released to release Halo3 he is also forgeting that many consumers are waiting for PS3 as well.
 Especially if PS3 is launched with its own impressive AAA titles.That wont let Halo3 have the impact it would have had otherwise.

Unless Halo3 isnt ready/good enough in its current stage and thats just an excuse to build up hype for it

Im curious if this is real. Why would TIME magazine stoop so low to have a video game consoloe and Dave Chappelle interview make the cover. What the fuck...

Time is once a week so they have space to spare.

Time has dedicated the cover to videogames before.

Unless the 360\'s launch is going to face a significant delay, Halo 3 won\'t be launching with it. Moore pretty much confirmed it.

Here\'s hoping they make the hitboxes and sticky aim like it was in the first Halo. Halo 2 = scrubified version of an already scrubby FPS, but still fun.

I haven\'t posted here in a while, eh?

Hi Nu. :)  I will agree Halo 2 generally sucks ass compared to the real FPS\'s but for some reason I\'m always compelled to play it when a new one\'s out.

About the auto-aiming though, I hope they allow us to turn that crap off.  The 360 will allow for mice and keyboards for precision fun.

For some reason I don\'t forsee Halo 3 over shadowing PS3\'s launch even in the slightest. But Glad to see MS taking the rivalry seriously

Didn\'t Sony try this with the launch of the DC? If I remember correctly, FVIII come out on 9/9/99? I think so, because I recall gettin\' my DC and games, along with that game.

In the end, I think sales was good for the game, but it didn\'t impact Sega in the least. MS can expect the same with this plan.

Halo 2 seems fine with the updates. I seriously don\'t understand why people are still complaining.

I believe the media will all but make a footnote about Halo3 while 99% of their coverage will be on Sony. You guys remember all the media news coverage about all those people trying to get a PS2? Imagine when PS3 is launched.
