Halo diehard since Halo CE and my god I don't think I've ever been this hyped for Halo...even Halo 3 which is the most I've been hyped for any game. This story is so god damn interesting and seeing it pan out is going to be nothing short of amazing. I may be in the vocal minority but I truly am glad 343 took the helm of Halo and Bungie did their own thing.
Worst thing to happen to Halo? Well for starters, 343 wasn't afraid to explore the expanded lore in game with Halo 4 and soon to be Halo 5. 343 also has been more community focused than Bungie at their best was and I know this since I've been apart of the community (competitively and casually) since the end of the Halo 2 days. In terms of writing a story, 343 excels there more so than Bungie in my opinion. Halo 5, at least to me is a start of a new era of Halo. Everything that was gre...
You're not looking hard enough. There's great music today but it's the music that isn't popular. I do agree that music on FM radio is basic garbage but there's still a lot of talent out there.
I seriously agree. I think this might be the next Journey in terms of critical acclaim. Funny how 8 people who are in different countries collaborated and delivered this masterpiece compared to the big AAA games that have hundreds of people working on it and yet fail to deliver on promises. Ori should also win Best Art Style and Best Soundtrack imo.
I meant to disagree woops.
I feel like when mascots were big, the gaming scene was vastly different. Since video games nowadays sell better than some of the biggest movies, there really isn't a need to market your brand with a mascot because gaming is now a mainstream hobby. Plus the up and coming gamers are accustomed to the over the top "Michael Bay-esque" hype for games. Characters like Sonic, Crash, and Mario wouldn't survive in today's industry if they didn't have an established ego from ...
People have been saying this for every CoD release that strayed further away from the CoD 4 formula.
I hope that if we see both a Gears Collection and an Uncharted Collection that Gears 1 and Uncharted 1 have updated visuals. Probably one of the easiest $120 you could squeeze out of me.
Bayonetta 2 does look like a heck of a lot of fun. I'm hoping to pick up a Wii U as soon as possible so my buddies and I can have Smash Bros/Mario Kart night again because we used to do that with Brawl. I'm praying Ninty announces a new Metroid at E3 and will show some glorious Star Fox gameplay.
Haha got a kick out of this. Glad to see the humor is still there in Halo :)
It's been far too long. Samus needs to come back soon and help push the Wii U because I know it will be the reason I purchase one.
You're thinking of Unreal Championship 1 and 2 on the OG Xbox which was exclusive to Xbox.
Same, I loved the Duke. Just looking at the controller takes me back to the Halo 1 days
I think for me Halo 1-3, Sonic Adventure 1, Sonic The Hedgehog 2, The Last of Us, Mass Effect, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, Call of Duty 4, San Andreas, Tony Hawk's Underground,Fallout 3, Skyrim and Gears of War would probably be the games I'd kill to re-live first time around again. So many memories associated with those games.
I made a really good friend on Xbox Live back in 2009 when MW2 came out and we both had a mutual interest in competitive Halo and we would do Gamebattles in Halo 3 and play a lot of MLG. We would game all night into sunrise the following morning. He is still a great friend of mine and we've never even met in real life due to him being in Minnesota and me being in Massachusetts. We even discuss politics or even normal personal stuff that is unrelated to gaming. This story really hits hom...
For me, achievements/trophies add replayability to a game and adds more sense of accomplishment when completing something. I used to be a hardcore achievement hunter years ago and it even caused a little bit of competition between my friends and I which was fun
The memories that came with Halo 3 during the golden days and being a part of MW2's hype and launch was something special and rare back then. I would kill to relive all those fun times playing those games for the first time with friends again.
OG Xbox and Dreamcast without a doubt
Just because you have "Halo" and "ODST" in your name doesn't mean you can't be a troll which clearly you are. Since people have literally had hands-on with Halo 5, being excited is justified. Halo 4 was also not terrible, it just wasn't your typical Halo game. Halo 5 is going to be incredible whether you think so or not.
@XBLSkull Jesus man. You give us Xbox fans such a bad rep it's ridiculous. But hey that's what trolls are best at.
OT: May have to pick this up considering I got a PS3 in late 2012 and never got to play any of the God of War games even though i meant to pick up the GOW Collection. Wish it came with 1 and 2 but whatever I've never heard anything bad about 3 so $40 to me is perfect.
