Mavrek48 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Been thinking about how the PS3 really didn't have anything that could compare to Microsofts Halo franchise. Do you think that Sony will try to remedy that fact this gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenExotic Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I didnt see it to be a problem last Gen, Xbox has their Big hitter HALO, and Gears... what else did they really have? when you bring in the PS3 Heavy hitters, you have a lot of variety and a lot of first party exclusives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltyie Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I always thought that Killzone was Playstation's Halo. Honestly I don't want sony's talented teams working on space bro shooters when they could we working on innovative games like the Order (Yes, it's a shooter, but it does look interesting), or Killzone dev's Robot Dinosaur RPG. And before people get mad that I called Halo a space bro shooter, that's what it felt like as a new guy to the franchise. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And before people get mad that I called Halo a space bro shooter, that's what it felt like as a new guy to the franchise. I thought of Killzone right away as well. But Killzone seems to be very polarizing to gamers, whereas Halo is pretty much universally loved. I think I'm envious of the the dedicated ecosystem that has emerged from Bungie and the solid staying power. I think Sony could go for something like that. Something that would not necessarily have to be a bro shooter. Well no because sony already lost. They better do something about that because xbox has much better games now and will in future. *Sigh* There is always at least one........... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONUOsFan Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I don't really think it needs one, honestly... Sony franchises are typically more varied. If FPS is your thing, especially online, Xbox is the place to be. I like playing FPS sometimes, but it's not my main concern in gaming, so I prefer the PS ecosystem. I just don't see Sony "stealing" the audience that just plays HALO and CoD and nothing else no matter what they do, so trying to come up with their own HALO is kind of a waste of energy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Parker Posted October 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2014 Well no because sony already lost. They better do something about that because xbox has much better games now and will in future. Dude deal with it. You won't see sunset overdrive. Take this as a friendly warning. If you have nothing constructive to post and you continue to try to bait others into arguments, you will find it very difficult to post on PSNP at all. We have no problems with you having a different opinion or feeling that the Xbone is superior but the posts I quoted above are trolling, plain and simple. On topic, I don't think Sony will or needs to have their own Halo. There is a huge third party FPS market already so those who enjoy FPS already have a multitude of choices. Plus, Sony has exclusive first party FPS games already so there is no need to copy the Halo formula. Though I would argue that Killzone (especially 2) is way more of a "bro" shooter (whatever that means) than Halo ever was. I don't think Sony needs a Halo either. Sony dominated the 6th generation with the PS2, outsold the 360 last generation and already have a commanding lead on this generation. Now sales obviously don't mean everything, but it seems like people are happy with the PlayStation ecosystem without a Halo. At least we have Bungie now though.

YTPerfectParadox Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I personally think halo is dead. it was my favourite series when it first came out and i loved it but its become worse and worse with each release, it just seems like a generic call of duty shooter now so i dont think the ps4 needs a franchise like that, the reason i like playstation so much is that the exclusive games are usually very unique.

CasaDeBen Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The only reason i liked halo was 4player splitscreen at my friends house. It was a blast playing through the levels or all signing in to dominate online without needing mics. But those days are long gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroXOF Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 No need for Halo if we have Destiny, it's actually decent and pretty cool (About Halo 4 cool). Also I like Original idea to stay on their platforms. What do need is Steam exclusives that would the best thing. Also people stop insulating Halo, your hating is on fanboy hate.

You really have to check the arguments you use, those were 100% rubbish. On topic, HALO is only the 'big franchise' because it represents half of the major franchises they have lol, whereas in the PS you don't have A big one, you have many big ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spazcannon Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Short answer is no. Thing is Halo is what practically made the Xbox relevent. It is IMHO the most important series for the Xbox consoles. Sony has never had that nor truly needed it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, I think Naughty Dog could give an in their prime Rare a run for their money. The question is, how many Rare members from when they were an actual great developer are still with Rare now? Probably not many. Parker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker With a bit of reshaping and looking at your team's weakness and strengths, Rare could make a comeback. Rare also back in the prime days had something called "a diverse profile" which Naughty Dig hasn't got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikatiiker Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) I never cared for Halo too much. Played one Gears of War with a friend owning Xbox 360 and it didn't really get me excited even once. When you think about God of War trilogy alone, I'm happy I decided to get PS3 instead of X360 back in the days.
