Halo 4 beats Black Ops 2 in 'most anticipated' list - Nielson

4.5
Could Call of Duty's dominance of the FPS market be waning? Possibly, according to a recent survey which names Halo 4 as 2012's most highly anticipated game on Xbox 360 above the mighty Black Ops 2.

The results of the Nielson survey says that Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is the most anticipated game on PS3, but not on Microsoft's console, on which Halo 4 takes the top spot forcing Activision's FPS powerhouse to settle for second.
From there on it's the usual suspects on both platforms; Assassin's Creed 3, Madden NFL 13, Darksiders 2 and Resident Evil 6 fill the upper slots as you would expect.

Nielsen collated the results from the survey answers of 4,823 male and female "active gamers" between the ages 7 to 54 collected throughout the month of June - to tie in with game announcement at E3.

5000 people is hardly the most all-encompassing figure, but enough to get a general lay of the land.

Wii gamers voted Just Dance 4 as their most anticipated, but they don't exactly have much to choose from.

Smiley_man I like Halo, but in all honesty....ITS A NERD GAME. YOU GO AROUND SHOOTING ALIENS WITH F****** LASER GUNS!!!. F** ALL D HALO SWETS! COD WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER THAN HALO


My oppinion :)


I respect that it's your opinion but I don't see how you can label a game as a "nerd game".


Because it's sci-fi.


Ant your obviusly not a gamer and only play call off duty. Also your reason for calling Halo a "nerd game" is pretty garb. Have fun with black ops 2.0


LOL OK. I haven't played call of duty in nearly half a year and you're making ridiculous pre-assumptions like that?

Stereotypical 'nerd' is sci-fi orientated stuff.

So says the guy with the name :P

But somehow playing 20 days to get to max prestige doesn't make you a nerd?
