Thoughts on Halo 4.

Didn’t Bungie say it was done making Halos?

yeah, but Bungie doesn’t own Halo anymore, 343 Studios make them now.

Meh, I’ll get it. I’ve gotten every other Halo game, so why not?

Eh I’m on the fence. I’ve been a long-time fan, but I felt everything past Halo 3 were just okay games.

I never got past Halo 2 because of the damn xbox exclusivity.
I will never buy a Xbox360 but my joy for the Halo series is enourmous.
Halo 1 was the first shooter that really impressed me. Halo 2 was meh, but still awesome but the damn cliffhanger put me into a freezestate that I will possibly never come out of until I played Halo 3. I have to find someone to borrow a xbox and play this damn shit so I can finally know wether I still like it or not.

Well, we don’t even have so much as a screenshot, so it’s kinda tough to say, but it is Microsoft we’re talking about here. They’re going to want to play it safe, especially with all the skepticism about 343’s ability to fill Bungie’s shoes. It’s probably just going to be more Halo. It’ll have a few gimmicks and some new “threat” but the core gameplay will be exactly the same as the last 5 Halo games.

And that’s my baseless prediction.

It better have more info on the forerunners, the cliffhanger ending for halo 3 legendary has to be resolved damnit!

Micro$oft is definitely not milking the Halo franchise at all. A sixology of this mediocre/ monotonous franchise is exactly what we need.

I’ll believe that cynicism when the games start being mediocre/monotonous. So far, they’re not.

My thoughts on Halo 4:

If it comes out for PC, I’ll be interested in it (which applies to the rest of the halo series too).

PC ports of halo games are never as good as the xbox versions.

The first Halo was excellently ported, I’d much rather play it than the X-Box version. It’s possibly the best straight port I’ve ever played.

Halo 2 was an awful, awful port.

Seek medical attention

H1 port has like -20° FOV, the way the gun is rendered doesn’t sync up with the mouse, gameplay feels like a god damn refrigerator box with a gun taped to it.

the story looks good but the multi will prob be the same. they should really release this stuff in order cuz the preludes are annoying and if you arrange them, have better stuff Which makes no sense b/c they’re before lol

I had zero problems with the gun and aim in the first one. I did have major problems with that in the second one. Maybe you’re confusing them.

I generally don’t give a shit about or even notice field of view problems, but a lot of people whine about them in pretty much every game that comes out, so I guess it is a legit concern for many.

I actually really, really liked ODST.

I had a great time sneaking around the open maps, slowly picking off grunts and then charging in all guns blazing.

It just felt uncharacteristic of the series. The only reason I was disappointed is because I went into it expecting something it wasn’t. I’m sure it’s a better game than I gave it credit for being.

Halo 4 thoughts: Idgaf about the 4… I’m still wondering why they didn’t move on to a different game/series

Halo4 = Graphics better, moar alienz, bigger war, BOOM new halo game, fans will buy the shit.

Halo and Cod. Very similiar.

Assuming you didn’t know this based on your comment, Bungie has moved on to another game series with Activision, Microsoft has not. It’d also be entirely foolish of Microsoft to let their flagship title from the original console just disappear.

I agree that the 360 needs a new, well-done exclusive though.
