Halo 2, Half life 2, doom3 and killzone delayed until 2005

Imagine what an anti-climax this year would be if they were all delayed

With Biohazard 4, Metal Gear 3, Burnout 3, Ace Combat 05 confirmed, and possibly Viewtiful Joe 2, Metroid Prime 2 coming out as well, this year will be anything but an anti-climax!

FPS sucker!

What was the point of that initial statement then? Talk about topics that don't lead anywhere...

[Ginza]

Halo 2 delayed would be suicide for Xbox. Not really too bothered about any of the others.

Considering the hype / marketing / advertising spend gone in to it.

I sort of agree with Ginza... if the combo of Half-Life 2, Halo 2, and Doom 3 were out on Xbox this Christmas it would walk over anything Sony or Nintendo have to offer.

[neil@DOMINO.ORG]

just highlighting the level of hype around these, but as Chad states plenty of other stuff looking good.

[Spatial]

Why ?

: sob :

Why would you say these things ?

: sob : : sob :


Nah, Chad's right. There's more than plenty on the horizon to keep me entertained. In fact I'm wondering how my wallet is going to handle the onslaught of the coming months

Paper Mario 2, RE4, Second Sight, MGS3, Fable, Vampire:Bloodlines, Prince of Persia 2, GTA San Andreas, Jak 3, Killer 7, Outrun 2 ..... the list goes on.

Where the fack am I going to fit in time to play all these ??!!

plus DS and PSP

[auzdafluff]

I'm gonna be broke this Christmas... sod the relatives I'm getting myself Burnout 3, Halo 2, Doom 3, Half-Life 2 if its out, the Sims 2, Outrun 2, Fable, Resident Evil 4 and Prince of Persia 2.

[Spatial]

@Neil - I was trying to forget about those

"Ouch !" - thats the sound of my bank account taking a thumping !

[Darwock]

I sort of agree with Ginza... if the combo of Half-Life 2, Halo 2, and Doom 3 were out on Xbox this Christmas it would walk over anything Sony or Nintendo have to offer.

How's that, they're all the same game...

[Ginza]

Everyone would still buy all 3!

[TheForce]

How's that, they're all the same game...

hmmm, a comment from a "true expert" ??

anyway if all these games are just as good as they promise to be (halo2, doom3, half life2, burnout3, Outrun2, PoP2, ResEv4 etc etc) it's gonna be one hell of an expensive last 6 months

[Darwock]

Just a comment from someone who thinks FPS games are generally bland and repetitive.

[IcePak]

My theory is that Doom 3 and Half Life 2 may never come out because they've been hyped to the hilt and there's no way that they will ever live up to what everyone is expecting from them.
