E3: Microsoft Accidentally Reveals Halo 4

[LessThanThreep]

I know it probably won't be as good as the Bungie games, but I still squealed when I saw this.

i dont honestly care if its by accident, i just freakin love halo.

Can people top 'accidentally' leaking stuff for fraks sake?

Either its a fake leak in which case they have bugger all imagination when it comes to early advertising to generate hype (with bugger all real details).

Or its real in which case people at MS can't count the days on the bloody calendar.
Both of which paint a rather dismal picture really.

Is anybody else getting more skeptical that these are accidental reveals? I mean, this many happening in the last few months...these companies doth protest too much.

Looking at the hype generated, I think a lot of them want to jump on that popularity bandwagon.

I for one am happy about this. I want to see Cortana and Master Chief get back to Earth. Maybe Halo 4 will tie in with the books, and all the Spartans will finally be able to go home.

Could you perhaps enlighten me a bit? I never read the book, would be interested in a bit of knowledge outside of the games, though.

Hmm... I never thought Halo was in any way finished as it's one of Microsoft's biggest franchise. If this new thing has a 4 in it's title it means there will be Master Chief and the Flood. It's about time, 'ODST' was an OK distraction, 'Reach' a terrible game in terms of dramatic pacing.

Sure. Short version: Master Chief wasn't the only Spartan made, and over the years the rest have all been killed, save for him and a small number. The only one I remember by name is Kelly. Kelly, some other Spartan IIs, a few Spartan IIIs, the Gunnery Sergent that trained them, and the doctor who created Cortana and the Spartans (can't remember her name) are currently trapped in a Shield World built by the Forerrunners. The book is called Ghosts of Onyx, and it ends with them still trapped in the planet, trying to find a way out. I've heard there's going to be another book, but I'd rather see that tie into the video game myself.

well im glad. Halo forever.

 

[L33tMarvin]

halo wont end until Halo 6:Revenge of the Covenant

 

[etherlance]

Wow......And to think they said they were done with Halo with the release of Reach.

Way to back up your words Bungie.


Seriously......I want to know what happened to the Chief and Cortanna but I was fine with what my imagination was coming up with.

 

[The Urban Moose]

I have a suggestion. If you have a problem with Microsoft milking the Halo series then don't buy Halo 4. Really. It's that simple.

Captcha: Inficali record.

 

[fulano]

As long as it's good I'll buy it. Mindless fun with a fun universe plus paper thin plot is always welcome.

 

[Yeager942]

I have a weak spot for Halo. I played it as a little tike all the way back when it first came out and I've been following it ever since. Has the quality drastically dropped since the original? Undoubtedly and depressingly yes, but that never stops me from loving Halo games. It's a guilty pleasure .

 

[Hyperactiveman]

There's nothing left... Nothing!

How can this go on?... It just can't!

Damnit where is a gun when you need one?
