Sure Halo 3 hype is pretty huge but just wait till Gears 2 is released. I honestly think Gears 2 will sell more on first day then Halo 3 will on first day. If you think Halo 3 Hype is huge, just wait till Gears 2. The gaming world will stand still for the release of Gears 2. They are going to do some amazing things for the sequel. Gears already owns any game on any console at the moment, and I even Enjoy Gears a great more than I enjoy Halo 3. The sequel will be something amazing

You'll forget about gears when halo 3 comes. Multiplayer will be at least 2x better, single player probably at least 2x longer. I kind of expected more from gears after all the hype, so I won't be hyping gears 2.

Well then, that changes things, and I agree with you, Gears blows Halo 2 away, imo.  But still, I can't see Gears 2 hype reaching the Halo 3 hype.  Halo is just a bigger franchise. And I think Halo 3 will make up for the disappoint a lot of us had with 2.

To be honest, I am not seeing much hype about Halo 3. Its like that was the game of last generation, this generation it is all about GEARs.

Firstly, the world stood still for Halo 2's release. It was the biggest day in entertainment history. Halo 3 will dwarf what Halo 2 did. Gears of war is an amazing game, which is without doubt my favourite 360 game, but believe me, it doesn't have a patch on what Halo 2 did for gaming. I didn't take Halo 2 out of the Xbox for 2 years. I've played several other games since Gears came out ( Oblivion and Virtua Tennis)

If anyone thinks Gears is bigger than Halo..... -smacks head against desk-

You guys need a reality check.

Halo is leagues above Gears.

That will pretty much dwarf every other game out there.

Blizzard is doing its part to keep PC gaming alive.

I hope you're joking. Doesn't Halo 2 still hold the record for the fastest selling piece of entertainment on launch day?

Yeah. This thread reminds me of "just wait until killzone 2 launches" threads. Same principle of having unfounded hope.

Sorry, just because Halo 2 dropped the ball, doesn't make Halo 1 any less of a game.

Halo is still legendary.

I actually think gears should've scored lower than halo 2. The campaign was even shorter than halo 2's and I think the enjoyment is about equal (also gears' 10 in sound doesn't compare to halo 2's 10 in sound) and gears multiplayer can only dream of the level halo 2 multiplayer is at. It's just too easy to bash halo 2 because everyone does it.

IMO Gears was better than Halo 1. I didnt say Halo wasnt a good game, I just think it is ungodly hyped.

I wasnt bashing Halo, I just think it is overhyped.

Not hyped, it would be overrated.

But no, it's not. Everything about it is just top notch. Seriously, if it weren't for Gears's graphics, the cred it has around here would not be as big as it is.

I'm going to put my review up of Gears soon. It seems the only people that think it's better than Halo are those who jumped on the bandwagon when the 360 launched.

Yeah, bashing may be too big of a word, but nowadays everyone seems to have the idea that halo 2 was a mediocre game which it sure wasn't. Also, overhyped says nothing about the game itself seeing what it was hyped to be ;). Personally in any case, I got bored after a few weeks of gears, and halo 2 lasted me a year so that speaks for itself.

Halo > gearsff7isnumbaone

True :P

Gears was too slow, and was too, 

'You will go this way' at least Halo kind of gave you choices and massive playgrounds for levels.

I think Burning Crusade beat it. BC = 2.4 million units, while Halo 2 was 2.38 million units.
