Bungie is cheating on gamespy's poll. Half Life 2 fans please visit the site and vote for half life 2 in the bottom left of the page. HL fans need to fight back because that poll is advertised on bungies site which is totally unfair to HL.
 
So it's Bungie's fault that they are a community-oriented company while Valve simply couldn't care less about their fans? I'm not sure I see the logic.
 
That isnt the point. The point is that they have horrible fans and that valve has at least a little style to not cheat and effect public polls.

What proof do you have to back up this 'point'? I'm a fan of both series, does that make me horrible? Or does it make you a fan-boy?
 
I agree but it is just getting really annoying how bungie encourages this sort of thing making half life 2 look like a worse game when it is actually a better game proven by pc gamer.

This is easily the funniest shit I've read all week. Keep it coming.
 
yeah, 1 magazine PROVES that one game is better than the other. Just like my vote was the only one that should have been counted one Nov. 2.

So what if Bungie linked to a poll that can't possibly be fair and valid in any situation. A poll like that is designed to give a very unscientific estimate of the community enthusiasm, if Bungie can get their fans excited - more power to them, if you can get Half Life 2 fans excited - the same... but don't call them cheaters and call Halo fans horrible.

1. What if I think Halo 2 will be better than Half-Life2?
2. I find it funny you edited out your post after someone quoted you
3. Who cares if Bungie linked the poll on their site, has this become some sort of a contest?
 
In reply to number 3, yes it has become somewhat of a contest in some peoples eyes. If you dont think so then why do you think that poll was created in the first place?

Gamespy's polls are jokes. There was one a long time ago that pitted a double barreled shotgun against a cheeseburger (I know I'm way off here but I do remember that they pitted a double barreled shotgun against something ridiculous).

I can't beliebe that you were so concerned that you had to organize a movement against Halo 2. Calm down my man. The Gampesy poll means absolutely nothing.
 
Since when is a review considered fact.

You can't assume two games that neither of you have played; are better than one another based on a review, and then use that review as proof of that, so called, "fact."

Gimme a break?

Adam.

You are right, I should calm down.
 
I coudnt care less about the pole, in fact I'm gonna vote for Halo2 to smite you...prepare to be SMOTTEN!!!

are you honestly gonna get upset about a poll? grow up. I voted for Halo2 to smite you as well :D
 
Spite, guys, not smite. Unless you're actually killing him.

And what's with the rampant !!!!!!ism? I mean, with as much time as people spend bickering about which game is better, you could've put in a few extra hours at work and just bought both.

Bicker all you want - I'll be too busy playing both to join some petty clash of the !!!!!!s.

Edit: mods, come on. I only know one dirty word that starts with "f", and it doesn't end with "anboy".
 
You need a hobby... or something else more productive to do, seriously.

Edit: That was pretty amsuing kuyaglen... :p
 
i already voted... i dont care because i know hl2 is gonna be the wickedness

-warsaw
 
...the poll isn't even asking what the better game is, it's which one are you more excited about, and you're getting upset. Sweet sassy fucking molassey get a job.
 
i think the fact that anyone is sooo damn excited about either is scary... video games and the internet will cause the demise of humanity.. hear me.. the end is near!
 
I hate halo 2! I hate the generation that likes it! Long live half-life and quakkeeeeee1!!!!!!111oneoneone

Based on your excessive letters i will assume you are being sarcastic. But I hate people who think that Half Life is the good old times and Halo is a bunch of stupid kiddies. If you have ever played Couter Strike online you know that imature retards are everywhere.
 
yeah I voted for Halo 2. While they will both be very awesome games.

I personally wil be having more "fun" with Halo 2, due to xbox parties and stuff.

giant douche or turd sandwhich! 04 part 2; just kidding...

Seriously, I doubt anyone will base their purchasing descision on this, and since they don't why would it matter. If a few thousand fans more fans for halo turn out does it mean you have to play halo? (This is of course much different than a general election where apparently a few percent either way can swing it and you have to live with the results)

no none of these statistics matter at all. I just think it's interesting. :)

That isn't too impressive, considering that Steam holds dozens of games (And that is an accumulation of the players of all of them).

As of now, there are 76773 playing Halo 2. That is one game. That doesn't include all of the other people playing other games on Xbox Live. Not too shabby.

There's around 70k between CS/CS:S/CS:CZ, mostly all in CS itself, just pointing it out in case you missed the breakdown game by game that was posted above... Not that any of this means a thing whatsoever but yea.

Considering the darn game is over 6 years old I say it is doing pretty damn well.

Half Life 2 will own Halo 2.
