Halo DS petition

Halo DS would be a wonderful thing; especially considering the wi-fi multiplayer possibilities. So if you agree but feel powerless to make your opinion felt, it might be a good idea to sign the Halo DS petition. There aren't many signatures yet, but your vote might help change that - BELIEVE! (oh yes, we went there).

DS has crap hardware, it's not good for FPS. The idea of Halo on DS is pointless.

marcellizot6786d ago

"DS has crap hardware"

Erm, I think there about 36 million people that would beg to differ...

Also, have you played Metroid Prime Hunters? Proof that a FPS can work on handhelds and the controls on the DS are much better suited to FPS games than the PSP's.

PS360WII6786d ago

yea you really never played the DS if you think that way. DS is a perfect fit for fps. The combo of the D-pad and stylist makes for a very fluid game, and to marcellizot that's actually 50 million people that would beg to differ. While the DS is not PSP it certainly does a whole lot that the PSP can't do. PSP can do FPS but not as well as DS.

marcellizot6786d ago

Is it really 50 million it's up to now? Wow, I really ought to have known that :)

Cheers for the heads up on that.

socomnick6786d ago

Just because people buy a product dont mean its not crap. people bought the pinto back in the day and dude that car was crap. Ds is a nice handheld though the wii Is crap.

PS360WII6786d ago

heh normally I'd disagree with you and say something but in this case you still gave props to the DS so here here ^^

Charlie26886785d ago (Edited 6785d ago )

WOW the petition is SO poorly made its incredible!

Come on people if you want a Halo DS I dont think you should be asking someone at IGN for it, at least ask MS since the OWN the Halo IP

>.>

skarn: no, MS owns the Halo IP that was one of the key things when they split, Bungie will make the games, MS would lend the IP. Why do you think when they were asked if they were making Halo 4 for the PS3 they said that since MS had the IP rights it was not gonnan happened, and you REALLY think MS would let Bungie leave with the Halo IP?

skarn6785d ago

Technically Bungie owns it but at least if it's on a news site it would probably get more recognition than it would by getting ignored on one of the corporate web sites..

Not going to happen either way IMO so what's the point.

is the front page space wasted with a petition?

Still have my Silent Hill 1 copy

P_Bomb306d ago

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

Puty306d ago

Can we have SH1 on PS Store?

SimpleSlave306d 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?

FinalFantasyFanatic305d 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.

Dear God it's been 4 years since infinite and no official update on anything lol.

Tacoboto347d ago

No official update on anything?

They replaced studio leadership
They changed the studio name
They announced the change to UE5
... all while supporting Infinite

The support to Infinite isn't what it originally should have been but they've still been providing tons of official updates over the years, and as recently as two months ago added a brand new weapon.

GamerRN347d ago

I think remaking Halo Combat Evolved, and going to 2 and 3 again, will help give the studio an idea of how to make a Halo game feel like Halo again

Tacoboto346d ago

Infinite did feel like Halo, that's not what the complaints were...

The complaints were almost literally everything else. Monetization, netcode and desync, the campaign structure, story, and single biome, the weaker-than-expected post-launch content.

InUrFoxHole346d ago

Gotta agree. Infinite felt like halo.

Profchaos347d ago

Dev times in modern days 4 years of silence isn't unheard of when things are running smoothly.

And around 6 months ago 343 did show a tech demo of ue5 using halo assets so it's not radio silence.

Given all the shake ups i am more surprised we're getting anything next year at all.

RaidenBlack347d ago (Edited 347d ago )

They coulda started with Halo 3 remake ... I know Halo CE remaster was not proper with the art style but still, remaking after a remaster seems dull, when Halo 3 and Reach have started to show some age.

PhillyDonJawn347d ago

Yeah I hate they used Halo reach artstyle. Hope this remake feel authentic yet fresh

--Onilink--347d ago

Probably the simplest to work around with. They are reportedly doing it in UE5, so its just as much an Anniversary thing, as its probably the studio getting familiar and setting up their tools and processes in the engine with an actual game, to facilitate the development of the next Halo

Profchaos347d ago

I'm guessing combat evolved has a smaller scope in general the later half of the game features a ton of backtracking and reused assets making it a easier game to remake on a deadline

Its also a better choice if this is the first game to be multiplatform mind you I think it's pretty much a given that anyone with a passing curiosity has played this by now in some way be it pc or brought a used console for a few bucks

darthv72347d ago

This will likely come to PS5 at the same time. 25 years of XB.... shared with PS.

Obscure_Observer347d ago

It´s gonna be among best sellers on PS Store next year regardless.

raWfodog346d ago (Edited 346d ago )

I would love to see Lost Odyssey come over to PS5. I would definitely buy that again. That was the first game that I played on my 360. Loved the story and battle system. One of the best JRPGs of all time in my opinion.
