Like they said in the article though, helps that its multi-console, compared to Halo 3 only for 360.

I don't get the hype for GTA. I played the last one and it wasn't all that great. Personal preferences I guess.

UT3 released into a very tough market. 2007 was a banner year; look at the titles: Super Mario Galaxy, Orange Box, Bioshock, Halo 3, Gears, and of course COD4 (we'll miss u, Linkin) just to name a few.

They probably should have waited until about March of this year.

Agreed. It was essentially an unfinished product. Worst UT demo yet...

UT3 never had a chance to do as well as Halo or bioshock or most other blockbuster games. UT3 is a great game but its not for everyone. It lacks the depth of games like Bioshock, its single player or storyline mode is just a series of matches, in Halo you follow a story, go new places, fight new enemies and it feels fluid. UT3 feels like your just playing in different maps.

Plus there is the major factor of piracy on the computer side. I'll be honest, this is only the second Unreal game that I have bought and I have played every one in the series.

GTA has 8 out of the top 10 slots.

Ownage.

What an embarassing ranking. There's no end to bad taste.

GTA is probably the most interesting game on the market. When i say interesting i mean it is the one that most people can't stand reading about.

GTA provides guns death drugs sex and chaos that no other video game ever before. Rockstar is making bold steps towards gaming overall. There is alot of controverssy over said game thus i plan to try and play some of it myself.
