Master Chief is one of the worst characters in video games. No personality, horrible voice actor, very lame indeed.

TROLL EATER6089d ago

SAAKING is the biggest lowlife in N4g

da720izcumin6089d ago

take it from a connoisseur when it comes to FPS.
MC is the quintessential character of these type of games, let me give you examples:

- gordon freeman
- Doom (the protagonist was nameless)
- Denton (deux ex)
- bioshock guy (john or jack or jason)
- agent 007 in golden eye
- gina (Unreal)
- joanna (PD)

dude, you should know that MC is actually ostracized for being too talkative right. the general consensus is that the less developed the character happens to be, the more immersed the player will be to the environment and actions of the world.

BTW, you might as well skip my comment since all you were trying to do, is troll this here thread; in the hopes of keeping people from liking one of the best game characters in our generation.
in that case, bravo you failed.

el_bandito6090d ago

Forgive me for my poor comprehension but I don't understand anything past the first paragraph. Maybe its not translated good enough.

davey9756090d ago

I know, translation of Google is not the best and it also ruins the layout.

Microsoft Xbox 3606090d ago (Edited 6090d ago )

Master Chief is the Hannah Montana of video games. Popular but corny.

UnSelf6089d ago

i hope this isnt an article praising MC. im really sick oh those. Like, really whats so great about him?

He can jump high and dual wield and hit hard. Am i missing something?

kaveti66166089d ago

His character and story is better laid out in the Halo novels than in the video games. The video games do a terrible job of developing his character and relationship with Cortana and the UNSC.

That's Microsoft's gaming division for you...kill off developers making new ip while trying to capitalize off some long lost glory that has no hope of ever being what it once was thanks to recent decision making favoring unrealistic profit goals and greed. What a joke.

Reaper22_196d ago

So much bitterness. Why be upset over something like this. Just don't buy it and stick with what you prefer.

Tacoboto196d ago

Complaining about Microsoft is the only thing people comment here for anymore.

This website is practically dead without it

Mmmkay196d ago

I remember when you guys constantly complained about Sony remaking and remastering games. Guess it is cool now. As usual.

thesoftware730196d ago

Give it rest medman..., take a deep breath and try to not sound so invested in something no one is forcing you to read, buy, or play.

"Console war"is over, Sony won, be happy.

medman191d ago (Edited 191d ago )

@thesoftware730
I'm invested in people losing their jobs and their livelihoods while Microsoft execs tout record profits for their gaming division. Not sure why you wouldn't be invested. Could be you one day. Good luck.

Travesty196d ago

So what’s their solution to having multiplayer? Wait until Halo 7?
That was one of the most memorable parts of Halo..

monkey602196d ago

I'm not sure spending the heavy investment in time to recreate the multiplayer here is the answer either though.
Remaking the campaigns is a great idea to bring the new players up to speed. But if the multiplayer is included in each it'll just fracture the player base of each release.
I think it might be better to turn these campaigns out quicker and have 1 multiplayer game to keep everyone in one place

Travesty196d ago

Maybe having an Halo Online and just release the Combat Evolve maps. And when Halo 2 releases have those maps release. I don’t know but I would like to play a newer version of Halo multiplayer. I know times have changed, and Fortnite is all younger kids really play. But back then it was Halo and you connecting 6 Xbox’s together lol.

jjb1981196d ago

I agree. I think that'll segment the playerbase and once 7 comes out, players might realize it sucks and go back to the older games. Especially if 7 is live-servixe, they'll be shooting themselves in the foot on the one good leg they have to stand on.

crazyCoconuts196d ago

Kinda surprised they didn't just port MCC.
Maybe more $ to by made with separate remasters

Inverno196d ago

Wouldn't have that problem if it were MCC being released. Gotta wait for 7 to be disappointed with MP all over again cause if they half baked Infinite what makes people think they won't half bake the next game? MP works in past HALO games not cause of nostalgia but because it's MP that isn't concerned with the endless service approach.

JEECE196d ago

There is so much cognitive dissonance over Infinite. People say they didn't like it because it was a live service. Yet if you look at what the criticisms of it were at the time it came out and when the playerbase started falling off, the primary issue people had was a lack of updates. In other words, it wasn't enough of a live service.

Which is really an encapsulation of the problem with multiplayer today. So many people think that they want to go back to the "good old days" of mid-2000s multiplayer (The first few Halos, Socom, the first few Battlefields, CS 1.6, etc), but in reality if a multiplayer game like that came out today, people would whine about the lack of content within a month of launch and go back to a live service with a grindy progression system.

isarai196d ago

Why not just port the MCC? 🤔 That was the easiest layup ever and you completely missed it

franwex196d ago

30% profit margins! People will pay $70+ for remakes!

Software_Lover196d ago

I thought the same thing, then I realized that they wouldn't include the remakes in that edition. We may get a different version of Halo MCC in the future with all of the remakes included. I just want them to include Halo 5 at some point for PC.

TheColbertinator196d ago

Can they remake Reach too with the multiplayer?

Knightofelemia196d ago

I wonder if Microsoft will port Reach over to Playstation I quite enjoyed that game. I played Halo 3 and it was not bad I have Halo 2 on the OG Xbox I just need some cables to hook up to my tv to play it.

This collab proves that New Halo games coming to Playstation: CONFIRMED

The last pillar has fallen XD

Tedakin276d ago

I mean Helldivers 2 is coming to Xbox in 2 weeks. It has a Playstation Studios logo on it. The first pillar has fallen.

lukasmain276d ago

LOL you think a live service game is a Playstation pillar? hahahahahaha

1Victor274d ago

The first pillar has fallen.
🤦🏿 Well the competitor’s house already got 2/3 pillars down and the 3rd one is rotted to the core about to fall any minute now bringing down the glass house of cards down FOREVER 🤣
THE WAR IS OVER DEAL WITH IT

Reaper22_274d ago

It doesnt matter. You can get playstation stuff on PC. That pillar fell a long time ago. And next gen it will continue to fall.

Tedakin276d ago (Edited 276d ago )

@lukasmain Their one successful live service game, and their most successful game in the last few years. Yeah I do.

lukasmain276d ago (Edited 276d ago )

It's not a pillar. Expect ALL live serviice games to come over. That includes that upcoming Marvel Tokon Fighting Souls as well at some point. But the PILLARS are the amazing single player games. The games they built their brand on. Helldivers LAUNCHED on PC. It's not a Playstation Pillar

Still have my Silent Hill 1 copy

P_Bomb300d ago

So do I! It goes for a nice sum these days, but I ain’t sellin’!

Puty299d ago

Can we have SH1 on PS Store?

SimpleSlave299d ago

It's crazy to think that GOG will have Silent Hill 1/2/4, Dino Crisis 2, and Resident Evil 2/3 before the PSN. What the actual fudge is Sony even doing over there?

FinalFantasyFanatic299d ago

I will probably pick up Silent Hill 1 right away if GOG gets it, I grabbed BOF4 as soon as it was released, haven't picked up Dino Crisis yet since I already bought it on PS.
