Halo 4 Reaction

[Daffy F]

Well, considering it was a Halo game not being done by Bungie, I said "ugh". Otherwise, I would've said "neat".

Agreed. Bungie's community was too epic. I have full respect for them not wanting their franchise to be bastardised so hard it went on forever. Unfortunately they can't stop that from happening, so they're not a part of it. Still... It's a shame.

2) i don't know about the jetpack, maybe it was installed by cortana whilst he was sleeping or something. maybe he picked it up off screen. it's a really pointless continuity error to get worked up about

The Jetpack still needs to be put physically on him. AI cannot change the Spartans physical appearance. They have no power to do stuff like that to a Spartan.

Stated in the book.

I was more interested in the Halo CE remake than the Halo 4 trailers.

If my father didn't keep pestering me to play Halo: Reach with him 100 times a month I would be fond of this. So now there's another Halo game... where's the Halo?

I wouldn't say anything yet as there is nothing to say about it.

I was really disappointed. The second I saw Master Chief, I'm like "Jesus this series is getting old." Also, because it's out of the hands of Bungie, that made me think it's going to suck.

My jaw dropped. I put my head in my hands. I questioned why Bungie had to do this. I still cannot get over this new trilogy. I mean....no. No. I just can't believe this. This is awful. Don't get me wrong, it probably won't be a bad game, but there really is a time when you look at your work and say "Yes. It is complete. Let it be laid to rest as a part of the past, so we may move ahead." What if Michelangelo had gotten crazy with the idea of the Statue of David, and built him a wife, two kids and a nice little cottage? Yes, I realize the connection is slightly specious, but the same concept of knowing when to stop still holds.

...woo...

It's my opinion that the longer something drags on, the more overall quality drops, (I believe the same can be said for CoD, but then, I am one of those incredibly pretentious "I play for story" gamers.)
I remember when i still had positive things to say about the series, that time has long gone. I was incredibly relieved when Bungie said that Reach would be the last, but now look what's happening, what if George Lucas added a second Star Wars trilogy... oh wait... In conclusion, I'm not impressed.

If it's good, I'll buy it. Not the best trailer, though. Seriously, remember the first trailers for Halo 3?


Yeah. Exactly.

Going by the logic that the Halo series has been in decline since 2 (yet with a slight rise from ODST to Reach, not that, that is saying much) I would expect this game to be the same as my reaction to it's trailer a resounding "meh... Ohhhh Skyrim."

 

[DigitalAtlas]

At first, I had a fanboy splooge.

Then, I had to change me pants.

I've kind of fallen off from gaming news in the past couple of months due to the current demands of not-completely-sucking-at-life, but I'd heard from a friend that 343 wasn't going to be doing a direct sequel. That it'd be from earlier parts in the Halo timeline.

Seeing the actual trailer, I guess I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I'm still completely stoked to be back with John and Cortana in their non-stop-alien-crushing-adventures, but I was looking forward to seeing the earlier parts of their story being told with a bit more finesse. Bungie did fantastic with the Halo games, but the one thing that always frustrated me was how terrible they did with getting the story across to the average player who didn't want to go buy 5 books in order to understand what was going on.

I'm still excited for a new Halo, but man. I feel like 343 should've started off with a remake or a spin-off title first. They're taking over one of the biggest franchises in the history of games; Halo defined shooters on the console. It helped define FPS for multiplayer on consoles, both online and local. 343's got a lot to live up to and, frankly, I've got my concerns. Bungie really threw the gauntlet down on Reach.
