You know I have already been looking at the sites involved in how to build Spartan Armor and I have e-mailed the Director of Marketing at XBOX to make arrangements to attend the launch party just so I am prepared for next year… but that is not what this thread is about.

I think GoW Emergence day is notable but I would also rate the Fall update as being pretty big. It brings with it the capability necessary for this week’s biggest event and that is the Video Market place which I think is going to be extremely huge!

Really?

As single player Halo was better for sure but the online on Halo2 made the game what it is. Sadly GoW had those same features initially but they were gutted to get it our the door in time. That most of the reason why I cannot say GoW is better than Halo2 for gameplay.

Exposing bias is my purpose in the community.

My order would be…

1. Spring Update
2. E3 Show + Bring It Home
3. GTA IV announce
4. X06
5. Announce of accessories (camera, headset, wheel)

How can you say Emergence Day was bigger than Halo2 launch though? For Halo2 people were camped outside for hours before midnight, some of them in costume. Stores were open at midnight and had prizes to give away. None of that happened with GoW. There ended up not even being a uniform release date.
