Halo: Reach ZP predictions thread.

Something about Fanboys, short campaign, doesn't care about multiplayer, etc
I hope he says something about not knowing who the hell is talking in a cutscene. There's like 6 dudes wearing full face masks, and I'm suppost to know who's telling me his dramatic and important character back story bit. Kinda skewed the story for me a bit.
I still dont know is Noble 6 is a mute or not.

You weren't paying attention much, were you?
First off, there were no character back stories. And the helmets were off in the cutscenes more than half the time. I did find Jun and Emile's voices difficult to differentiate between during missions, however.

He'll probably nitpick the hell out of it but at least say it's decent.

I don't really care what his opinion is, I'm sure the video itself will be very enjoyable and I already think it's a great game (but honestly, don't you think it's time he at least tried out the multiplayer for some games? He could use it to critique the game more).

 

[Candidus]

Snip.

He's entertaining. Nobody- or very few of us- take what he says as gospel regarding the game he's bashing. Yahtzee isn't a reviewer, he's a critic. A damned funny one.

If you disagree, that's your taste. You're entitled to it.

Regarding something many others have said, I wonder whether he *will* talk about the shortness of the campaign. Perhaps my perspective is skewed because I completed it on legendary first, and although I didn't die a great deal (I got the no deaths helmet for my live avatar on the first level, first time) when Reach *did* kill me, it usually killed me for 30 minutes, maybe more.

The zero gravity combat is a great example of a spot that held me up for ages.

Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I'd be quite shocked if he took a swipe at the game's length. I'm already quite shocked that other players do.

Oh common, I got to know everyones names, voices and armor in first cut scene Anyway, I think he'll like the game. After all, he said halo 3 was okay or "average" and it had the weakest campaign in the series, while Reach easily has the best so far.

Unfortunately, Yatzee doesn't seem to like multiplayer and that's a HUGE part of halo.

EDIT: Noble six is NOT a mute BTW. Its really not hard to notice Six talk.

Main point: Go watch the Halo 3 review, now add in more master chiefs and try and give them some kind of actual narrative but forget about character development down the line and just focus on multiplayer after about a week. That's Halo Reach in a nut shell.

I predict the unpredictable

well then, top marks for you I guess...

 

[MrGalactus]

No, no, no, you misinterpret. I can obviously hear they have different accents, I just dont know who's is who's, and yeah they have their helmets off but when they do I dont know which is which. I don't recall ever actually seeing them physically take them off.
I think he'll call it average, because it is average. Its more ODST 2 than Halo 4, honestly.
Oh shit, what did I just say?
I'm gonna go hide in a secret underground fanboy-proof bunker with Marcus Fenix to keep me safe, because he could totally beat up Master Chief.
STOP TALKING, JORG.

And really... a Survivor faceplam?

How dare you insinuate that I like Survivor. I hate the show, I just picked the picture with the most facepalms.

Fucking Survivor....
