Welcome to the Rumour mill, VideoGamer.com's run-down of the big rumours currently doing the rounds in the video game industry. Every week they'll hunt down the juiciest stories and give their opinion on how legit they are. So, whether you want the ridiculous or the plausible, read on.
This week they rated the following rumors:
- HD DVD Xbox 360 canned at last minute.
- Halo: Chronicles demo with Halo Wars.
- Xbox 720 already in development.
- Starship Troopers style PS3 MMO from NCsoft.
Halo Wars is still widely considered one of the best and most accessible RTS games around, and that formula could work with other Microsoft IPs.
I think Crackdown would fit in a more turn-based tactics system via Xcom then a RTS type game play. Being able to customize multiple agents, deploying that group in an crime infested urban zone, going against other super powered enemy and fodder type thugs. The potential for that is huge if they won't do another successful, ground breaking, GOTY open world outing like Crackdown 3....
NoobFeed Editor Joshua Burt writes - There are many games in the famous Halo Franchise that are stellar titles and need to be revered. And some that do not. These games stand out from the crowd and deluge of colossal Halo titles. Games that made Halo great. We do need to iron out what qualifies the game for this list. They have to be in the Halo franchise… Obviously.

Halo 3 at the top is correct the only thing id change is swap infinite and halo ce around.
Halo 4 has the hottest Cortana too which explains why the MC is the hardest in that campaign and why H4's multiplayer is the illest. Chief ain't afraid to take on teleporting enemies that can one hit melee kill.
Since debuting on the original Xbox, the amount of games released means it's no easy task to rank the best and worst Halo games.
I feel like I see these articles often. Either way, just going by main titles as a whole package not just on MP I’d say;
Best 2,3,1,4,5 worst.
Story only;
Best 1,2,3,4,5 worst.
MP only
Best 2,3,5,1,4 worst.
Great list Deathdeliverer! The only place we differ is that I would put Halo 3 MP over Halo 2 MP, but gaming preferences are subjective and there are really no right or wrong answers. We match exactly on everything else. And yes, these list are made all the time, but they still get me to click on them. Lol!
I was really torn between the two so I’ll call it a toss up. They are head and shoulders above the other Halo Mps. It’s Halo 2/3 (in any order) then a pause, then the rest.
Starship Troopers is the most hilarious movie i've ever seen in my life.
back to topic.
it's great that NCsoft signed a few deals with Sony. City of Heroes, City of Villains, Guild Wars, etc. they make great MMO's and if there is indeed a Starship Troopers style MMO coming to PS3 from them, i'd buy it and pay monthly to play it.
not hard to believe really M$ shafted Xbox owners and forced them to buy a 360 and now they're forcing even more people to buy a 720 which means, just like they did with the Xbox, they'll drop support on 360. Sony consoles are future proof. look at the PS2. launched before the GameCube and the Xbox and it's still living on.
for NCsoft`s titles to start coming out.
FREE MMOs are a GREAT idea for consoles.
meh.... rumours never seem to come true.
It seems that Microsoft wants to release a 720 before they are miserably beaten everywhere. I bet the 360 sheep will buy it immediately and buy even more games than before since that is all they have to spend their money in.
