Ó

Today's rumors often become tommorow's reality; or not. Anyway, GameInformer Magazine shares juicy bits of unconfirmed (as of now) news:

  • A new Halo game is in the making and will be titled Forerunner.
  • "Project Orion" is a team exploring the possibility of a Halo MMO game. The game, is still in the "planning stages" but has received the green light.
  • Microsoft is trying to secure the next version of GTA for the Xbox 360.
  • Final Fantasy VII for PS3 is in production and will use the FFXII real time battle system
Can someone from the Psychic Friends Network please confirm?

Ok, lets see here i said professional in the sense to make this an open forum not flame wars so just stop ok. The reason why i never stated my name is that it has no pivotal point and theres absolutely no reasoning to do so. However my aka would be one of many: Darkyhand, Dark_Rebellion, The Specialist, etc. There u go. Now please no more flameing move on u little pre-teens, we don't care that u think u know everything. Anyways, to "Lover not a fighter" yes the new halo will be for 360 and possibly the pc, it depends on if Bungie will issue it out or if MS will decide on Gearbox again (most likely not since they screwed Halo: Combat Evolved for the pc).

Well mister "I AM THE MS BUTOUT PLANS POSTER" i'm sorry but I must agree with the other poster about your professionality, which I doubt you have one.
You're right about the names, they arent needed, but who says that you realy are an expert in economics??? Maybe you are, maybe you are not.

Ok.... your attitude apparently makes you in the pre-teen phase. Your post clearly shows your utter disregard for respect and professionality. Grow up! I do not need to give you the affiliates name, for reasons of my protection, the affiliates and SE's. You can believe me or not, i do not care. What I do care about is WTF is going on with today's youth...when the hell did God leave you (anyone in general) in charge with an all-knowing power. You walk around, living your life thinking that you can go ahead and disrespect another being, that you have the RIGHT to say utterly retarded and completely out of context banterings...what is wrong with you....seriously. You have no idea how horribly retarded you must be if you actually think you can do that. "Who Knows" - Your post is perfectly fine, states a RESPECTFUL opinion and does not include retarded comments and hateful words. Now the one below....SERIOUSLY GROW UP, life is short try not to ***** it up for the rest of us, the people who actually want to make something of it. I just stated my personal experiences and opinions, and now I am taking heat for it from a child, may God have pity on your soul. Seriously people STOP THE *****ING HATE AND GROW THE ***** UP! ----- Back to the topic, a Halo MMO game seems highly unlikely for the time being, at least for the next 4 years. MS and Bungie have TOO MANY MMO's to compete with as of right now, and with WoW staying strong, I don't even think a Halo craze may crush that giant. Also, Bungie does not have a lot of experience with MMO's, they do with small multiplayer, but not an ever changing world, inflation, etc. MS is trying to secure the next GTA game, they are also "speculating" a buyout of Rockstar, whose stock is falling rapidly and PR is failing. FFVII, if made, would be for both the PS3 and 360, even the Revolution possibly. Think about it, the ones who love the original, will most likely get the remake to relive the experience, now if it was made for other systems, SE is reaching out to the fanbase who have never played FFVII but have heard great things and desire to play, but do not wish to buy another system just for one game. SE would triple its profits if made for all systems. A 360 version is most likely, a revo is the least likely due to its controller, but it is possible with shells and what have you. So, to sum it up, FFVII remake is just as likely for the 360 as it is for the PS3. Glad to hear anyone elses opinions.

 » Please! no more.

let me ask one thing: WHATS THE POINT?!??!?!
I'm in pre-teen age but im very respectfull in what concerns other persons opinions!
I must admit that im kinda Sony FanBoy, which makes me sad with these revealing news.
MrI AM MS BUYOUT PLANS POSTER you, even being probably correct and logical about your statement, you shouldnt be in this "RUMOUR" section.

"What I do care about is WTF is going on with today's youth...when the hell did God leave you (anyone in general) in charge with an all-knowing power."
I'm proud of what i'm but you must reconsider that not every youth behaves like that!!!

22. » A lot of Sony fans on here

Just reading through and it's obvious that there are a lot of Sony fanboys visiting these pages. Poor little guys. They must be pining for Sony to join the next generation. Xbox 360 news is as close as they can get.

Hey, a little heads up jerk. This is posted in the damn PS3 blog, Sh**-for-brains. Not to be rude, but just wake up will you! You can't just say "Oh, XBox kicks sonys ass." Because you CAN'T prove it. I can prove that more people own Playstations and that Sony has more brand trust than MS because I have numbers to back it up. XBox news wouldnt be as close as I can get. WTF is that supposed to mean. XBox news shows what crap it is. Do you even read any of it?!?! All these shortages, well not to much anymore, but still. Get your facts right. I have. Don't think that every living sole that hates Microsoft loves Sony. Apple looks like its doing better than MS. With Boot Camp and all. I don't prefer Microsoft, but I use a PC. I just don't like XBox too much. Halo is too over-rated, of course. I know its a rumor and will most likely not happen, but if MS and its head honcho, Bill Hates, buys out Rockstar, all hell would break loose.

-Thank you for your time...

my name is John. Im 24 years old an engineer who works for a telecommunication company. Your professionalism is questionable to say the least. Look at the words you type in your comments. Surely that is not from a professional. Also giving information like what you did is not a work of a professional. Even a 10 year old can say he is a professional but he cannot act like one. Anyway its nice to have a "comedian" or a "fortuneteller" in this forum everynow and then. Forgive my grammar and spelling because im not from America or England

 » So, this is how things can be resumed.

Words for what, you snaped them from my brain.

Nicely said "Jonh".


P.S: DONT BELIEVE ON THOSE WHO WRITE IN THE NET.

This is for everyone, even to the "COMEDIAN", "FORTUNETELLER".

Plus: Okay, i must admit that post 29, 31 and 36 had a very harsh rudness, but they also, believe it or not, represent that we can't believe in what everyone says/writes. About the "professionalism" posts they are also correct, because having such an easyness to know facts that no one knows "for some reason", is total lack of any professionalism and/or responsability.

Once again I repeat, dont trust the internet by any means.

PS3 being a failure??? Hum... I don't think so.
RockStar going B.rupt??? Who invented this???
F.F "possible" getting sold to microsoft??? At least STRANGE and NOT LOGICAL.
