Sprony Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) Miraculously, Halo 4 doesn't seem to have it's own thread yet. New launch trailer: Edited October 19, 2012 by SpronyvanJohnson Quote
Mazy Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 Not terribly excited about this one to be honest, even though I generally love the Halo games (Legendary difficulty lives up to it's name). I'll still play it, but I've yet to see anything to make me really excited about this one. Quote

I'll still play it, but I've yet to see anything to make me really excited about this one. I wasn't excited either since Bungie left. But Microsoft is pumping a lot of money and talent into it. The E3 trailer looked really awesome and all the movies they made for it so far show a lot of potential. The coop multiplayer mode especially draws my attention. So I'm going to give this the benefit of the doubt. Quote
FrieChamp Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 Miraculously, Halo 4 doesn't seem to have it's own thread yet. Actshully: Sprony and Thrik 2 Quote
Thrik Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 Haha. I've never actually played any of the Halo games after the PC version of the original, which I thoroughly disliked. Am I really missing out on that much? Quote
Mazy Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 Playing Halo 3 or Reach on Legendary showcases some of the best AI in the business. Some of the best fun I've had with a shooter to date come from those games, plus they're also terrific co-op games. Anyway, I know it's popular to hate on the Halo games, but they're solid craftsmanship~ Skjalg and Sprony 2 Quote
Beck Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 I've not played a Halo game since Halo 2 actually bored me to death. :/ I played the first one on the PC in multiplayer so much thougH! Quote
Sprony Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Posted October 19, 2012 I'm probably biased since I've played all of them but Mazy's spot on. Excellent AI, very challenging, great coop fun, awesome multiplayer, fun weapons, great story, design, etc. Halo has it all. Plus, it didn't follow the shooter trend of becoming a on rail game with one scripted event and cutscene after the other while shooting hordes of retarded grunts in tight linear levels surrounded by invisible walls Quote
Thrik Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 I might give some of the current-gen Halo games a try. I really didn't enjoy the original, but that was a long time ago and comparatively basic when put next to its successors I imagine. Quote
Froyok Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 I'm not really excited by this trailer... But I'm curious about this new Halo. 343 Industries seems to do a good job. The game looks really nice currently. Quote
dux Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 I loved Halo: combat evolved. Haven't played any of the others. Also that trailer was great. Quote
RedYager Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 I played a Halo on the 360 about 3 years ago, I couldn't stand it. A combination of shooting those little children aliens over and over with a 360 controller was really tedious, I just can't use controllers Quote

Am I really missing out on that much? +1 Also, yes! lol I might play this one because so much good talent worked on it. Quote
Izuno Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 First Halo and Reach were my favorites. In fact, I was very surprised at how much I liked reach after being disappointed with Halo 2, 3 and ODST. Meanwhile, anyone watching the Forward Unto Dawn web series? you can see it free on Youtube. It may not be the best acting in the world, but I actually am starting to like it, plus it's FREE. Nice. Quote
