Halo Killer, or killed by Halo? How to make good multiplayer.

"Titles like Halo and Call of Duty still rule the roost of online multiplayer. As multiplayer of big name titles like Crysis 2 and Homefront dry up, how can developers compete?" - Attack of the Fanboy

by not trying to be like them obviously, put something on the table your competitors haven't provided that is actually noteworthy to consumers.

or else they'll skip over your game waiting for the next call of duty or halo, and since there's a new call of duty each year you'd be out of luck.

Halo is still the online shooter that i compare every other game to...... Even though COD is a totally different game, it has nowhere near the level of polish, when compared to reach.....That's what disappointed me with Blops!!!!

Forget the fanboy crap.... i have both consoles..... We really need a halo equivelent on the PS3 which would certainly force activision to revamp COD.... KZ3 was average at best, Resistance 2 MP was horrible (3 doesn't look much better) I hope BF3 wipes Acti off the map.....It won't though as all the COD sheep will pay top dollar for a glorified map pack with new weapon skins & maybe even buy into that COD elite rubbish which basically copies what bungie.net has offered for years!!!!

I won't be buying the next COD after Blops bored me within a month.....I certainly hope that those with common sense will do the same.....

The Arkham games are largely excellent, a shame they are being followed up by that god awful looking suicide squad game.

RaidenBlack199d ago

All 4 Arkham games are just amazing...
With the Gotham Knights turning out sub par, hope the Suicide Squad fails as well... So that both Rocksteady and WB Montreal goes back to creating good single player DC games ...
A batman beyond game maybe?

anal_vegan_moans199d ago

Having the game fail would make it harder for them to get funding for their next game, please don't wish this on them. They already delayed the game a whole year after backlash, so we still have to wait and see how it will turn out.

I think asylum and origins were great. City was good. Knight was horrible.

You can't expect a game to match 96-94 meta apple for apple. Different era and different gen. No need to diminish either game's achievement. Arkham City and Spiderman 2 are both amazing sequels that improved upon their already incredible first parts.

Tacoboto199d ago

To back that up, there are major websites that adjusted their review scales.

IGN used to have a 100 point system; now it's a 10 point system. I remember GameSpot back in 2004 was razed for giving Halo 2 a 9.4 when IGN gave it like a 9.7 or 9.8

Arkham Asylum was great, but when City came out... wow what a total overhaul that was. Nothing has had that type of night/day difference in scope and scale since.

SM2 is looking to be a great game in itself. Definitely an upgrade over the previous entries. Just from the opening battle with sandman, it gives me god of war 2 vibes with how that one opened with the battle with colossus of rhodes. That is still one of my favorite sequels of all time.

Zeke68199d ago

Thanks for the spoiler how the game starts loser...

darthv72199d ago

Zeke... you've had plenty of time to play god of war 2.

GaboonViper199d ago

And right on cue, here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece, not gonna work, this game is gonna be beast in success.

BehindTheRows199d ago

From the same folks who gave it a 10/10 no less.
