That isn?t true. I think you'll find that Halo 2 made more money on the day of release than any other entertainment related release ever in history.

Yes the Xbox 360 is backward compatible, however it is only available to people who purchase the 'Premium Edition' of the Xbox 360, or those that purchase a hard drive. This is because the emulator to make the games backward compatible is installed on the hard drive. So strictly speaking if you get the 'Core System' you are not going to be able to play the games that were on the Xbox.

The Xbox 360 will only be able to play "top selling xbox games" not all of them.

The Xbox 360 will be able to play almost all games, or as M$ says "top selling games" Translation- Most of your gaming library except for the odd Pulse Racer you forgot to burn.

Yeah I know it will be the majority of the games, however I was just pointing out that it isnt ALL the games.

i think we should all just settle down with a sony ps3, any Mac g5, and a burrito. it would simplify all things, and would leave the ass of a company that microsoft is squirming to bury more buisnesses to keep itself alive.

anubis66 Wow, you totally convinced me to buy a PS3. After all, thats all I care about, some newbie's opinion about the PS3 and the Xbox 360. And absolutly no reasons to back up your claim. So basically, dont talk sh!t if you cant give good reasons.

Well the fact that Microsoft isnt a good company is your own opinion, so keep it to yourself. Microsoft will soon out do sony in the console department i predict, developers for PS3 are already leaving them and heading for Xbox 360, because the Xbox 360 is a much easier system to work with.
P.S see atleast I gave some evidence to why i think that Microsoft will out do Sony. I think you should take mkaseatgb's advice and backup your claims before posting.

In case you didn't notice this a thread dedicated to Halo. Here's the scenario:
Some bonehead comes to this thread talking crap about Microsoft/Halo/XBox and the guys who hang out in this thread get pissed. When they get pissed I get pissed and when I get pissed boneheads get banned. Do you follow what I'm trying to tell you here?
My killer sig came courtesy of bb "El Jefe" mayo.

anubis66
you should probably go and chat here mate http://forums.afterdawn.com/forum_view.cfm/153 , just stay clam dude it will be alright, and yes always backup your claims and rumours. ;)
and ya if you piss any one of nxt time(how did he piss you guys off anyway), you will be banned by the moderators. ;)
so if you want to replay in this thread again then just post about HALO 3 not PS3.

I have a feeling that Bungie are going to announce something significant before the year is up. Every weekly update they are giving is revealing more information about new things that they are doing.
Only a month ago Frankie said that he didn?t know if Halo 2 would work on the Xbox 360 so he couldn?t comment. Now however it seems like they have made a lot of graphical or game play fixes in a relatively small time period. As I?ve said before Bungie have a reputation for lying. In last weeks update he said "We?re going to have more to tell you about how Halo one and two look on 360, and it?s all good news." It sounds like they have been working on it for a while, possibly from when the Xbox 360 first started development in 2003.

Yes, its obvious that they will be because on Halo 2 the graphics were great and that was on the first generation console. So its safe to say that the Halo 3 graphics will be amazing.

haha, calling me a noob. if you believe so ok, i didnt have the time to back up, and smart ones will look of the stats themselve as ive done. i didnt not care to thuroughly discus the differences, it would take too much time. i've made my opinions from collecting info from many sites and forums and deceding by the numbers, names, and materials what is correct. for beginers, one thing ps3 will have is bluray disks (50gb disks). the 360 is going to still use dvds and cannot make as large and indepth games. facto that and all else you may look up on your own time, the only thing the 360 wins at is the size. but honestly does that matter? its a hme console.

and to that nephilim or w/e guy, i understand but this is where the people who do not see a
negative view are. i open a windows and discus something convroversial and you try to
penalize me for it. that makes you ignorant. i discus what may be an alterior motive to not
releaseing halo 3 info and you seem to think im ruining the fun. i'm am only trying to show a
few points, and to get them out. failure to see that will further render you ignorant.

well the ghost flies over water. but i know what you mean. i think there should be alot more water, and the ability to swim. maybe like a lake on the halo or a river you can swim in. then a fan boat would be awesome.
