Halo 3 In the Works, Set To Crush PS3 Launch?

Posted by Zonk on from the file-under-s-for-suspicious dept.

IGN has an article claiming to reveal a few rumours from around the industry. The most interesting of these rumours is the possibility that Halo 3 is in the works already, and what's more is being targeted at the PS3 launch date in an effort to undermine Sony. From the article: "The release of Halo 3 at the precise launch of PS3 is a pure, military tactical move, similar to the PS2's greatest lineup ever launching simultaneously with the launch of the Xbox and GameCube. It's designed to counter Sony's upcoming launch with the best weapon Earth has on its side, Master Chief." I'd take this one with a big helping of NaCl.

    that figured all this out even BEFORE Halo 2 was officially released last year?

    All Sony has to do is release Dragon Warrior IX, Metal Gear Solid 4, and Final Fantasy XIII on the launch of the PS3 in Japan and there will be riots in the streets. I am sure the Japanese going to extreme lengths to get the console/game will bring much more media attention then Halo 3.
