Well, aside from the questionable opinion of "Sammy Moulden", who
refers to them as Sony lapdogs, Insomniac (the developers) have a
pretty good reputation as gamemakers. It looks more like Call of Duty
than Halo in approach. The very idea of a "Halo-killer", or any
_insert game name here_-killer is ridiculous, as you can't "kill"
something that's already made an impact. Making any claim of that sort
can actually cause a backlash, like when one of the people behind "The
Matrix" boasted about that franchise's alleged superiority to Star
Wars.

I'm sure it would have a fair amount of buzz, in any case.
