Halo coming to Playstation 3? [Update]

The title says Halo, not Halo 3 which means we’re talking about the movie adaptation of the videogame. According to PS3Fanboy, there’s a rumor going that the Fox movie company has picked up the license rights for the upcoming Halo movie which is being produced by Peter Jackson.

Update: It’s come to our attention that Fox doesn’t have anything to do with the movie. The videogame merchandise will be handled by Fox apparently.

Now the funny part is that Fox is exclusively releasing their high definition videos on Blu-ray discs, which means that Playstation 3 owners can watch this movie on their consoles, whilst Xbox 360 gamers have to settle with the DVD version instead. Microsoft also explicitly stated that they won’t release a Blu-ray add-on drive. Microsoft does have the Video Marketplace which is also offering high definition content, but that’s plagued with 2-week DRM annoyances.

Keep in mind that this is still a rumor, but it would definitely be quite funny that Microsoft’s most popular videogame franchise’s movie-adaptation is limited to Blu-ray.

Thanks to Lotus 111s for submitting.

Oh dear…it might be an HD conversion of Halo 1 - is it worth bothering about? or even with?

Comment by Saurian on 2007-06-22 14:16:27 | Reply

Well, yes actually, because as a game Halo 1 is way better than anything on PS3 so far.

U mean its better than Call of Duty 4? I don’t think so! The Only thing about COD4 is how short the game is. Other than that, it’s the best game i have ever played in my life, real talk!

Dude did you even read the article, EVERYONE knows the game will not come to the PS3, even my dad would know that. This is just a light hearted laugh at the fact the FILM, yes THE FILM, might only be available in HD on Blu-Ray which is of course Sony’s format, thats is known as IRONY.

@SONYSUCKSBALLSS
Dude if the PS3 sucks so bad why did you buy one then trade it in for a 360, it would of been easier to buy the 360 straight away and not throw away money on the PS3 trade-in price, i suspect you are just one of those sad little twats who troll sites.

I believe the OS that ps3 uses is called Linux. Which is much better then Microsoft dumbass, cause Linux allows for easier programing and can be changed in any way shape or form that you see fit. That and its free :P

u guys take this console thing way too seriously! You sound like your ready to fight each other over consoles that u didn’t even help design let alone design. Remember, they didn’t pay you for the machine, if anything, you paid them and keep paying them every friday when a new game comes out. Think about it!!

PS3 has amazing exculisive and non exclusive games and certainly better than 360’s. OH but it has Halo, WTF theres no imagination in Halo sure its diff but its getting old man!Belive me ok, Microsoft may be richer, but Sony has got alot of tricks up their sleeves, 360 is older yes but ps3 has already matched and increased its performance better than a 360, i can on all day, but dotn telll me ps3 is shit, cuz if anyhting is shit is the thoughts that came out of ur head.

Well you really can’t read can you. They are talking about the movie version possibly being picked up my Fox. And if that’s true then people with PS3’s will be able to se it on Blue-ray. That’s what was said STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Acutally its quite probable at this time, microsoft no longer owns bungie (company who made halo). They’ve been talking about Halo DS for the nitendo handheld. Not to mention Halo games are being released by other companies, Halo wars is being devolped by ensemble. this means any other company can do the same, and they can choose what console and what format to make there game in. Seeing as blu-ray hold more potential than dvd, its probable that they with switch courses.

Personaly i hate the halo series, its un realistic, all three games are based off ONE CONSEPT, guns are horriblely biased, and the sniper rifle is THE most unrealistic i’ve ever seen, there 8-bit games with more realism. yay sure, vehicles are creative (kinda, a bunch of the halo 3 vehicles are just remakes of the halo and halo2 vehciles, or just real life vehicles re rendered)

PS3 will get that game for sure, think about how limited their games are so far, and Halo is the big shot for XB360, also think about y PS3 would use Blue-ray, so shitt like this can happen

Its not the game moron.. but LMAO blu-ray has the backing of BlockBuster, Sony, Disney, and FOX… FOX is just making a good descision here knowing that blu-ray will win as HDDVD loses just like the PS2 and XBOX(1)

This needs updating!

Fox have bought the rights to sell Halo merchandise, t-shirts, toys, etc
the film is still on hold

Yea they have, but there’s a RUMOR going around that they’ve bought the licensing rights, which would allow them to choose whatever format they want.

I have a fucking ps3 with resistance, it don’t lag you fucking fag. Your just making shit up and want people to believe you can actually afford one. Heres a suggestion, why don’t you play a game before ripping on it fucker.

Comment by Lone Goat on 2007-10-09 18:31:26 | Reply

played it…..

frame skips are true

$300 extra wtf are you talking about… PS3 is only $50 more and it comes with blu-ray built in, Xbox you gotta buy a external HD-dvd player thats liek what $150…. Not to mention PS3’s SPU gfx processors are so much better. And the most redundant thing is, Microsoft, a company know for there influence of the internet through Internet Explorer didn’t even put a browser on the 360… the 360 OS is ridiculous… create a profile to play multiplayer, and achivements wtf is that… Have to pay for online play tahts no better than ps3’s (no it doesn’t lag, not unless you have liek DSL and 360 lags on DSl aswell) you spend $350 on a system why should you have to pay more to play HD dvd’s, play online, and half of the 360 is based on last gens technology, liek the controllers, 2.4ghz (cordless phones mainly operate on the same frequency, can cause interference), same concept for rumble (yes i kow ps3 has no rumble as of yet, the story behind it is a company who says that microsoft and sony ripped the concept off of them sued microsoft and sony for patent violations, Microsoft settled out of court so they got to keep the rumble, Sony (a company of pride in what they make) fought them, unfortunetly they lost, so they had to redisgn the rumble, and they didn’t wanna push back the realease date so they released it wihtout rumble (they’s already redeisged and made the dual shock 3 controller but its yet to be released in the US) (The dual shock2 design is an emmy winner, a title microsoft’s xbox can’t achieve)

As for titles exclussive, Hello God of War 3, god of war 2 (a ps2 game) won game of the month the first week released and game of the year withen a few months. Heavenly sword (chick version of god o war), Devil May Cry 4, Metal gear solid 4, Kill zone 3, Grand Turismo 5, Tekken 6, Warhawks…. Theres more exclusive titles for Ps3 than 360, all 360 has is liek halo and thats it….

ok ok ok what the hell is wrong with this people!!!, first xbox has an HDVD player wich you can buy sepperatly and look is exactly the same as blue ray, the difference is that blue ray holds more memory. So im pretty sure xbox owners are aswell going to be able to wathc the halo movie in High Definision. OOOHhhh other thing there will never be a halo game for PS3 is just against nature. The natural orther will be disrupted.

You’re not getting the point man. Fox is EXCLUSIVELY RELEASING FILM ON BLU-RAY NOT HDDVD. What the hell is WRONG WITH YOU FUCKING PEOPLE. READ THE TEXT.

Deliberate use of Caps.

Are you retarded none of you actually do any research on what BluRay is. Your fucking dumb HD DVD are nothing more then having an HD attached and guess what? You can turn the disc over and have the Regular DVD. BluRay Disc hold way more then DVD’s do and they are better graphics then a “HD” DVD. All of you are Microsoft drones that no nothing more then how to play your video games.

First off PS3 has a faster processor then X360 and you dont have to pay extra to get a BluRay on your system, that is just to name a few. Can the XBox 360 sync up to the PSP? No it cant shit it cant even move your saved files from the first box to the 360. And you’all think the PS3 is failing it isn’t not only that but look at how many consuls that Xbox sold compaired to the Playstations. PS3 is actually made for games the XBox is there so that Bill Gates can once again consume another market.

Notice how PS3 has a free user online database where microsoft charges you.

That is all the 360 is more money in their pocket while all you retards sit her talking shit about PS3.

And they are bringing Halo to PS3 its called Halo Wars look it up.

“you dont have to pay extra to get a BluRay on your system”

ummmm i thought there was a price dif… never mind that one is to easy

“Can the XBox 360 sync up to the PSP?”

WTF PSP is sony why would M$ try… if they wanted to sync up to a handheld, my guess it would be the DS. Nintendo sold a assload of thoes things..

“And you’all think the PS3 is failing it isn’t not only that but look at how many consuls that Xbox sold compaired to the Playstations.”

wasn’t there just a story on playstatic and xboxic about the sales.. the wii is winning….i don’t know why,,, but anyway on that list the 360 has sold more then the ps3…

“PS3 is actually made for games the XBox is there so that Bill Gates can once again consume another market.”

what??? what system has a unreal lineup for this fall???

“Notice how PS3 has a free user online database where microsoft charges you.”

notice how no one likes ps3 online system… ya it’s free that is nice don’t get me wrong… but i have yet play on it without lag.

“That is all the 360 is more money in their pocket while all you retards sit her talking shit about PS3.”

Thanks for picking this up for me, I was waiting until I got home to pick him apart line by line but you beat me to it.

Only thing you missed is that yeah, the 360 can’t link to a PSP, but can link to a Windows PC running a Media centre which kinda shits all over the linking to a PSP argument.

Also his argument that Blu-Ray has better graphics than a HD-DVD, well no. It has the same graphics as each other unless the data on the disc is different. HD DVD is just a DVD with HD stuck on? So is a Blu Ray disc just a Blu Disk with a Ray stuck on? What the fuck are you even talking about? You can turn it over and have a DVD? eh? You what?

Your comparisons on Xbox and PLaystation sales are a bit strange to say the least if you are trying to back up your points. i will assume you meant PS2 and xbox as there rally isn’t any comparison with the PS and Xbox.

So the PS2 has sold more than the xbox even though the xbox was the more powerful console. Yeah I admit that, but then again, the PS2 was released earlier than the xbox so got an early headstart and had far bigger catalouge of games to buy the only thing different is that the xbox was more powerful.

Funny thing is, if you take that last paragraph, you can swap PS2 with the Xbox360 and the xbox with the PS3 and it still reads true today.

Maybe you want to research some of your points before posting so you can have something to back them up with and you can avoid being made a fucking fool of.

“i will assume you meant PS2 and xbox as there rally isn’t any comparison with the PS and Xbox.”

no if i was tryin to say anything about all time system sales over every system.. i belive the ps2 has out sold everything eles… thats not a bad system. Goes to show you power isn’t everything..

“Maybe you want to research some of your points before posting so you can have something to back them up with and you can avoid being made a fucking fool of.”

unsure if your pointing at me with that… i had no time the link everything i wanted to at that time… (really only that one story, that i miss read in the first place)

Go to your local bestbuy or curcuit city, thye should have two TVs set up next to each other, same TV’s, same color settings (both using HDMI cables) only difference one is a ps3 with bluray playing and teh other is 360 with the external HD-dvd player, The HD-dvd’s appear Dark and colorless compared the the vibrance and clarity of the Blu-ray disc… Not to mention it hold 25gb of data. Single layer and 50gb dual layer, HD dvd is only 15 single and 30 dual… what does this mean, resolution… higher resolutions take up more space, higher the res better the pic quality. and there about the same price as HD-dvds

“Microsoft also explicitly stated that they won’t release a Blu-ray add-on drive.”

No they haven’t, entirely the opposite infact. Peter Moore said that obviously if HD-DVD flops they will release a Blu-Ray addon.

No, that’s old news

“We firmly stand behind the HD DVD format as the best choice for consumers. Current reports indicating that Microsoft has a back-up plan, which includes Blu-ray support are incorrect. We’re fully committed to HD DVD and have absolutely no plans to support other optical formats,” Mr. Rodman states.

You don’t get it. Fox is only releasing movies in Blu-Ray. So, in effect, no… xbox owners won’t be able to watch it in HD as there won’t be an HDDVD disc. But regardless, this is just a lighthearted joking story about how ironic this is. Nobody really cares or thinks anybody is going to be heartbroken that the lousy Halo movie is only available on Blu-Ray and thus not able to be seen on the xbox.

who gives a shit about halo when the ps3 has resistance which is far better. x box 360 sucks so bad graphics are alot worse, holds less memory and the controler is the worst designed thing i have seen in my life.

IMHO the 360 pad is the best controller ever designed, I have found though that anyone I know with little nancy girly hands seem to prefer the smaller dainty PS controller. But this argument is down to personal preference, i must have bigger hands than you (and anything else that goes along with that statement) and so i find the 360 controller far more comfortable to hold/

We’re talking about movie rights, not game publishing rights or anything else. It’s the same as with Running with scissors who sold the movie rights of Postal to some shitty compay, and now Uwe Boll is directing it.

By the time this movie is made and comes out in HD, the format war could be over and because Microsoft didn’t commit to either form they can still have a Blu-Ray add-on for the 360.

It’s possible they might release a drive but then they’d have to chat to Sony about that now wouldn’t they? Considering it’s Sony tech.

Not completly true, Sony has a big say in the Blu-Ray format but it was not the sole company involved in development so the choice does not just fall down to Sony.

this will never happen microsoft wont let the movie come out on blu ray but they will let it come out on hd dvd i meean they both hold the same amount of memory. At worst they will alow the movie to be on the market place exlusive to us 360 owners and get u guys stuck with dvd since they wont alow it to be on blu ray

How thick are you guys. Fox does not do HD-DVD, they do Blu Ray. If Fox makes the movie the only way people with a 360 can view it is standard dvd or market place hence only Blu Ray owners get to view Halo in full quality.

It wouldn’t be a bad tactic for Sony to help fund the Halo movie through FOX due to the Blu Ray exclusivity. That would put Microsoft in a terrible position: 1) 360 owners would be stuck with the DVD version, while Halo junkies actually go out and purchase Sony Blu Ray stand alone players, or 2) Does MS come up with a BR add-on and pay rights to Sony? However, IF this is true MS would most likely just release a HD version over the marketplace.

Wouldn’t that be insane though, Halo being the determining factor in the high def war? Halo built the Xbox for MS and eventually ended up helping Sony and BR out! Funny stuff….if it were true.

I think everyone is missing the point,

Would you really want to watch Halo in the first place. The game is standard at best and if game to movie tie-ins in the past are anything to go by the movie is going to suck balls big time.

If this rumor holds true, this would be a big slap to the face of Microsoft. I would like to see the expression on the Xbox fanboys’ faces. It would be funny to think that the HD movie version of Halo is exclusive to PS3. I wouldn’t be able to stop laughing if this really happens. I wonder what Microsoft thinks of this….hmmm, I’ll bet MS will try to outdo bluray. Next thing you know, MS will introduce a new format called billsWay since we’ve seen this trend happen before with the Xbox Elite. They should’ve called it Xbox Complete, cuz they were missing so many things to begin with when the system launched. The Elite still missed the mark by excluding bluray. This is so funny….LMAO!!!!

microsoft have to accept that the x box 360 cannot compete with the ps3.

I guess u forgot to read the article on why it will be released on bluray instead of HDDVD. Here ya go: ….there’s a rumor going that the Fox movie company has picked up the license rights for the upcoming Halo movie which is being produced by Peter Jackson.

Now the funny part is that Fox is exclusively releasing their high definition videos on Blu-ray discs, which means that Playstation 3 owners can watch this movie on their consoles, whilst Xbox 360 gamers have to settle with the DVD version instead.

This article is jus a dream for the failing and desperate PS3. instead of focusing on games they’re selling a blu-ray player. See when i bought my 360 i didnt buy it 4 movies. I bought it cause microsoft has its head screwed on straight and they are by far coming out with the best games. Like it or not the halo movie will not only be available on blu-ray.

Lets not pretend the fools are isolated to Halo and the 360, if you like you could take a look at the similar thread in Xboxic concerning MGS4 on the 360.

Update: Okay, so Fox turns out to be involved with the Halo videogame, not the movie. The Halo movie is back to hanging out with Duke Nukem Forever in the ‘We’re never coming out’ club.

Interesting that Fox would get involved with the video game…

for all those that are arguing that the 360 is better than the ps3, what a load of bolloks! The ps3 is fukin amazin an i do know cos i have both, i’d much rather see halo come out for ps3, and for ‘Xenocide’, if the ps3 is failing, why are they thinking about bringing halo out for it!!!

They’re not thinking about bringing halo out on PS3, it’s about the film being released on Blu-Ray…

thats irony baby

Comment by Ripley on 2007-09-10 17:27:29 | Reply

After initially reading the article and finding it as ironic as I was supposed to, I then scrolled down further to find the latest round of “My console is better than yours” game going on.

Which I find very amusing. In a bad way though I’m afraid. I think the only line to say to all those people who feel the need to swear, offend and generally have a go at each other is this:
GET A LIFE

I myself have a PS3. However, this does not mean I hate XBOX 360 players, it does not mean I let Sony stick it up my backside, it does not mean that I’m incapable of having a detailed discussion about the pros and cons of each console, etc, etc.

Some of you guys on here are pathetic I’m afraid. I thought we’d got past the “My ball is bigger than yours” syndrome around 50 years ago.

Tut tut to you all.

I’ll be honest guys. I myself bought the PS3 on release date on 23rd of March in EU. I only own Ridge Racer 7, RFOM, Oblivion.. This is because im waiting for all the big games to come out.. So i’m a bit bored of these games atm. Having played them to death.. So .. the eagerly awaited 26th of September arrives… Halo3 360 only.. i went to my uncles house as he plays on the 360. And we completed the single player mode. Resistance is an excellent FPS game. But yes imo Halo will always be the dominant console FPS’er…I also enjoy the idea of gamerscore for people like myself who i’d class myself as being a “hardcore gamer” I’m thinking about getting the 360 elite myself tbh whilst enduring this long wait for more games on ps3..

I believe that MS will have some sly devious scheme to somehow distribute Halo on the xbox. This may be done Via and update or an extra piece of hardware that must be purchased. Either way if you choose to flame this thread in any way please make sure it maintains some intellectual structure i cba ith illiterate 13yo’s :)

didn’t the halo producers cut ties with microsoft? i think they wanted to have more freedom. that means they aren’t just limited to microsoft anymore, so ps3 w/ halo is a possibility in the future, ok maybe not halo 3 but halo 4?

Dude, yes, Microsoft and Bungie severed ties, but it’s still in the contract that they signed when Microsoft let Bungie leave that Microsoft will still own the Halo name, logo, franchise, games series, movei adaptation, etc. Get your shit straight. Blu Ray and HD ARE the SAME thing….it’s just shitty ass PS3 has one attached and 360 doesn’t….big fuckin’ deal, I’d rather pay for a 400 dollar system with HD than a fuckin’ 600 dollar system with “Blu-Gay”. All you PS3 fanboys, just face it, they’re the same shit, your just looking for an argument so you can make yourself feel better after buying that piece of shit system….my little cousin has a PS3, he came over, took one look at the gameplay on Halo 3, then sold his PS3 so he could buy a 360….and he owned Resistance, the best available game on the PS3, or so he told me….now what does that tell you?

“And they are bringing Halo to PS3 its called Halo Wars look it up.”

Your retarted, Halo wars is gonna be on 360.
I quote:

“Halo Wars is an upcoming real-time strategy video game that will place in the fictional Halo universe. The game is being designed by Ensemble Studios and is

SET FOR RELEASE ON THE XBOX 360.[1]

Announced during Microsoft’s X06 media briefing on September 27, 2006, details of the game first appeared on 1UP.com.[2] A pre-rendered trailer for the game was shown at X06.[3]”

How do you feel?

Comment by Tater on 2007-11-07 17:29:07 | Reply

I know its been said, but I guess people don’t read the actual article. Nowhere in the article does it say that a halo videogame will be on the PS3. They’re talking about the movie. If certain production companies pick up the movie, then the HD version of the movie will be on blu-ray only, therefore will be coming to the PS3. Now there are atleast 1 production company that could pick it up and make an HD-DVD only version so the HD version could not be watched on the PS3, but I digress.

This article is not about a videogame, its about Halo: THE MOVIE.

1. You can’t type for shit.
2. Quote the magazine please or your news ain’t news worthy.
3. If MS can lose the rights to something they own would you like to explain the legalities surrounding it.

Answer those points and maybe the conversation can continue, if not sit the fuck down and sober up.

You 360 bums seem to be hypnotised by the fact that the console has been out for a year!! unlike the PS3, if you inpatient neeks actually give the console a chance you will see the graphics are better, the gameplay is better and the applicagtions (such as the revolutionary blueray discs) are much more advanced! of course the 360 has more games, because most of you people rushd out with your allowance and purchased one because you didnt want to wait. Halo is a great game, no questions asked, but if your using the game as an excuse to back up the 360 being better, you deserve to be slapped. Give it 6 months, you fools will not only feel stupid, but you will be selling that piece of shit you call technology, and licking the rim of Sony’s rectum. You people go on opinions and what the Live feature is providing, I go on facts, and the technology of what the console can provide. More people + more games = a better Live feature, simply because it has been out longer. Just wait till a game like GTA4 comes out, you will soon remember what console brought you that sort of revolution like (GTA3), and that was Sonys PS2. Remember your roots, you bunch of narrow minded glory hunters. Playstation till i die. Microsofct should stick to making computers, because it seemed they lack of attention is causing mac to take over the market!

OK, It seems to be a fact,since nobody is disputing it here,that the ps3 has a better graphics engine and more power than a 360.I thought thats what half of gaming was all about.At least thats what companies always brag about right.As far as cost.Lets say that you bought a 360 when they came out.you paid like 400 bucks right.you have no hdmi hook up,no hd dvd player,you pay for your online gaming,you cant surf the actual internet with it to my knowledge,and your controllers have inferior batteries and arent bluetooth.so if you have a nice tv like myself,in order to have actual high def games and movies,you had to basically buy an upgraded 360,which still couldnt play hd-dvd,so now you have to spend 200 more bucks for an hd-dvd drive(until recently anyhow.At least sony had the vision to include a browser,hdmi,bluetooth,blu-ray,almost total backwards compatability,high quality controller batteries that charge fast and have longer shelf life.better graphics,more power.the thing runs and can actually be used like a home pc.In the end,i love HALO,it’s an awesome game,and i dont think the 360 sucks.But if HALO didnt exist,would you all even be having this discussion?Would there even be such thing as a 360?How many 360 consoles would have been nsold if it werent for HALO3?Name one other universally admired title available only on 360? Gran turismo?nope SOCOM? nope TEKKEN?nope Final Fantasy? nope. i spent 500 on my ps3,and i’m not sorry.Better controllers,true high def and blu-ray out the box,better OS,internet browser,ability to install another OS,partition the drive,shop the playstation store,play my ps2 games off the HDD.Take HALO out of the equation,and your point is useless,just like your console
