May 10, 200818 yr Cod4 is a much harder game and takes alot more skill than Halo. Most the weapons are Halo are easy to use and easy to get kills with. I Don't like the ranking system on Halo because I get on terrible teams and they always hold me back from ranking up. Cod4's ranking system is far from perfect too, but I like where you get ranked up on individual skill and not your overall team skill. To see how good someone there kill/death is alot more important than there rank imo. Only one of my XBL buddies hasen't switched over to Cod4 and that's cause he says its to hard. The hardest game ive probably played is Rainbow Vegas 2. I just can tell you that there hasn't been a single time I felt overwhelmed in COD4. I've never felt overwhelmed in a COD4 game, whereas I have plenty of times I've felt that way in Halo. I guess I take the opposite of you. I feel that Halo takes more skill because you have to work with your team. You CAN win a game on your own, but you're just as likely to blow it for your team going rogue. I just hate the idea that you can rank up in COD4 regardless of what you do. You could start a match and stand there, and you will still get points. But I respect your opinion. Halo 3 is certainly far from perfect.

Halo 3 is certainly far from perfect. Actually, in COD4 if you do not get any kills, I'm pretty sure you don't get any points. I've joined games late, not gotten any kills, and gotten 0 points even though my team won.
May 10, 200818 yr Author Man it's a good thing this is a COD4 /Halo3 thread or we'd be getting off subject, oh wait it isn't! :sssh:
May 10, 200818 yr Man it's a good thing this is a COD4 /Halo3 thread or we'd be getting off subject, oh wait it isn't! :sssh: That's fine, we can just let the thread die then. Not much more to talk about regarding GOW2 IMO. I didn't think the first one was that great. I'll rent this one instead of buying it.
May 10, 200818 yr Author That's fine, we can just let the thread die then. Not much more to talk about regarding GOW2 IMO. I didn't think the first one was that great. I'll rent this one instead of buying it. Of course it's not really going to generate any sort of buzz, I mean it's not even out yet, it had some buzz when the thread was first made and since then no real news has came about.
May 10, 200818 yr Author The gameplay for GOW2 looks awesome, it showed some of the campaign and oh man is it gonna be great. So much more options (chainsaw duels, different ways to kill the locust, etc..)
May 23, 200818 yr Author New weapon Scorcher (Flamethrower) "most realistic fire in a game we've ever seen" -5 vs 5 -Assasination gametype altered. everyone respawns until their leader is dead. when the leader is killed they stop rewpawing and the game ends when everyone is dead on one team. -Assasination renamed 'Guardian'. -New gametype 'Wingman' 10 players split into teams of two.each team is played as different character (eg marcus and marcus vs Dom and Dom etc) -Features Matchmaking -Exectucions now vary on the weapon you holding (eg sniper rifle will be used like a golf club) -Curb stomp returns -'Y' will cause your character to unleach several brutal punches to a downed enemy, killing him. -'A' will cause you to pick up the enemy and use him as a shield. The player your using as a shield will go to the respawn line. -New gametype 'meatflag' sort of like CTF but epic have done this in their own way. The flag will instead be character wandering around the centre of the map. He has his own weapons and even a place on the leaderboard. To capture him you will need to down him and pick him up as a meatshield and take him back, slowly, to your base. If you shoot the meatflag enough times while he's being dragged back to base, his captor will loose him and he'll go crazy on everyone around him.
May 23, 200818 yr Author -Specific weapons will cycle round the maps. -Stopping power - if your running towards an enemy but he is firing straight into your chest, you will slow down. -The oppurtunity to spawn with either the lancer or hammerburst. -Hammerburst gone through significant alterations. The faster you tap the the right trigger, the faster it fires. quicker shooting = more recoil however. -New weapon Medusa. could be considered a power weapon. 6 shots per burst. -Bullet shields. big metal shield that stops you from getting hit. can be planted into the ground to make a new cover. enemies can kick it down though if they get close enough. -Grenades can be stuck anywhere. not just on enemies. they can be planted on the ground,walls,doors etc to produce a proximity mine. -smoke grenades carry a stun effect that ragdolls anyone in range. -new weapon poison gas grenade. produces a cloud of smoke that kills anything that lingers in it. they can be stuck onto enemies were the will slowly die. people stuck by the gas grenade can also injure team-mates if the get too close. -On games with no respawn, when you are dead you can fly around the map as a "ghost cam". You can even take screenshots that will be uploaded to the community. -Gridlock returns. However its more overgrown now, plants and grass growing. (everything is still the same though- cars are where they where etc) -New map - 'river' - symetrical map, each team has a thin strip of land with a house and sniping tower, and inbetween them a river. -New map - 'Security' - long thin map. to the left and right are stairs leading to veranda's that run the entire length of the map. you are barred access however by red lasers, which will kill you if attempting to pass through. A power weapon is barred on the other side of the map while at the other it is defended by sentry guns. There is a button in the middle of the map that turns the lasers and sentry's off for 20 seconds. -New locust 'hammerhead' (helmet makes him look sorta like a hammerhead shark) -New locust 'Grenadier' (this is the guy we saw in the video were marcus punches him to death) -Two people can chainsaw one guy at the same time. -New cog 'Tai' has aboriginal tattoo's. -New cog 'Dizzy' "looks like chuck Norris" -Cole returns for multiplayer at least.

Man I loved the sniper rifle execution.
June 25, 200818 yr I'm going to get blasted for this but I didnt like the 1st one and won't be buying this one. Halo is better than this and some of you know what I think of Halo.
June 25, 200818 yr Author I'm going to get blasted for this but I didnt like the 1st one and won't be buying this one. Halo is better than this and some of you know what I think of Halo. Halo is horrible compared to this game. I've owned all of the Halo's and Halo 3 was horrible compared to Halo 2. There was no real improvements to 3 and it was like they just threw something together. This game is a better seller than Halo and will outsell Halo 3 when it's all said and done. Each person is entitled to their own opinion, I know that, but to say Halo is better is far from any truth.

Cod4 is the best online game i've ever played.
