As some of us know, it got released today. Me, I’m not gonna get it, though I’m definitely going to play it one way or another, probably at my friend’s house.
Are you guys getting it? Excited for it?
Also, I was looking around at the reviews on Amazon, and I came across this one. Pure amazing.
[size=small]I bought this game and started playing this morning. I don't understand why people get so hyped up about the Halo series, but this is my first one so maybe the others were better. Why do they cal him master chef? Is there some kind of cooking reference in the previous games? Also, it is so unrealistic, I played on easy cause it is my first game, and I get killed all the time. From what I can tell so far, you have to be amazing to beat the first level, and forget[size=small]Multiplayer, I try to punch a guy, and I go down in two hits, wtf. I hate this game, 343 made 4 trash games as far as I'm concerned.
Dat review.
I’ve hardly played any of the Halo games. I played a bit of halo a while ago at a friends house, but I was awful at it, so decided I disliked it. I was something like 10 at the time keep in mind xD. I would like to try the new one however, but I won’t go out of my way to get it.
I do want Assassins Creed 3 however, and Borderlands 2 still.
can’t tell if trolling or not. i need to go back and play Halo, 2 and 3. only Campaign ive played through is ODST and it was amazing. only thing i didn’t like about ODST is the controls were backwards from the other Halo games i had played, and the lack of sprint and dual wielding. i will be getting it after i play through 1 2 and 3. as far as AC goes, i still need to play 2 and Brotherhood.
The only AC game I haven’t played is 2, and apparently its the best xD I got bored of AC1, too repetitive in my opinion, plus the combat and parcour feels really sluggish compared to the newer ones.
AC 1 was incredibly repetitive, but the ending was WELL worth it… and idk, haven’t played the others, but the Parkour on 1 was very Tactical more than flourishy i thought
Shad: Yeah, but I prefer the flowing type as seen in Revelations, rather than having to slowly climb. Although, Revelations was a bit TOO easy. Jump - grab - jump - grab - jump - grab - synchronise - jump. Brotherhood probably has the best.
Lemon: Apparently with AC3 there is a bit more to the countering, you have to do combinations for different attacks rather than button mash as much as the earlier games.
This has become an AC thread now. xD BACK TO HALO! I no nothing. Other opinions on Halo 4? Should I get it? go go go.
I really wish that I could get Halo 4 personally, but I can’t have an Xbox in my room as a plebe, so meh. Possibly if someone sets one up in the company dayroom…
I’m a fan of the series and storyline, so take bias into account, but I think Halo 4 will be an excellent title. From what i’ve seen 343 industries has put some good work into the game. I wish you luck if you decide to engage in the battle against the Promethians, the Storm, and whatever else might be included in the title.
Note that Halo 5 and Halo 6 are already contracted to follow, so it could be wise to continue the series lest one be left out later on.
i will say. any of the Halo fans need to go and watch the web series Machinama did. Pure amazing that is.
Would that be Arby and the Chief by any chance?
…
No…
its called Halo: Forward Unto Dawn… its amazing really. takes place before the first game. The older sister from Narnia: Lion Witch and Wardrobe is on it.
I’m sure Arby and the Chief is better though.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE FALL OF HARVEST!
a friend of mine who is more hardcore than i am, he told me it wasn’t… LIES!
Lol for me it is quite the contrary. The only one i have played is 2. I heard about it late ok? xD AC2 had a good storyline, can’t believe i didn’t get the others. But, my birthday is close by, and my relatives are very generous with birthday money. 
HINT: My birthday is the day before thanksgiving this year! (Is that awesome or what?)
As for the Halo, I may use my birthday money for that too. I am a fan of Halo, nothing like shooting all kinds of ETs and having superman strength while always wearing a mask, never taking it off (seriously doesn’t it get hot? How does he sleep? Eat?), even dying with it. But even without him and his superstrength, it should be fun. ODST worked out okay. Why shouldn’t this one. I’m pretty sure that review was a troll. Master Chef, really? ;D
Forward Unto Dawn was awesome. I just wish there was more.
But even without him and his superstrength
Uh, Master Chief is in Halo 4, and he’s fully equipped with his normal Spartan capabilities. Cortana is possibly going rampant due to the fact that AI’s can only live for so long before they start to short-circuit from an overload of data connections, but it is speculated that due to contact with forerunner tech she might live longer. Despite that, Master Chief should be his usual butt-kicking self. Should be even more interesting with all of the Promethian hardlight-based weapons added to the mix.
As for that review, bad troll is bad.
Really? Oh my bad. Nice to see he somehow survived… and anyways, I forgot about Cortana. Ah Cortana… good times.
I am no expert on the lore, but I know Cortana is special for more than just her contact with Forrunner tech. Actually, she was made with Forrunner tech from the beginning. The woman who made her designed her personality after herself. She allowed Cortana to choose the Spartan she would be paired with. She chose Master Chief not because he was the best, but because he had luck.
The tech used to make her was half alien tech and half human. Most of the programming was human but the core was unknown. This is why she was so compatible with all the tech encountered in the games. Even the Covanent tech is all ripped off Forrunner tech.
She developed multiple personalities or copies of herself in an attempt to multitask to an extreme. When she first activated the program that would do this to herself, she warned that she did not know what would happen. The program was copied from a Covenent ship.
I got all this from one of the books I read many years ago.
Oh, and Master Chief survived because the ship he got on was heading into a portal right? Well, only the first half of the ship made it with the Arbiter on that half. The Chief was stuck in the back half and was left drifting through space likely for hundreds of years. The Chief put himself in stasis until he could be rescued. If you watch Forward unto Dawn, you will see the start of Halo 4…
I’m excited, but can’t play cause no Xbox.
I’m a huge book worm myself, however, I could not get very far into that series. I think it was the fact that the details were 100,000%, as in, there were far too many for any non-devoted halo fan. And I’m not a huge Halo fan (soundtrack is amazing) so I think it was just too meh for me.
We need a /sarcasm forum code.
You guys probably will make fun of me for this, but I had never seen all of these Arby and the Chief videos. Back when Red vs Blue was really popular and starting, I saw the first vid of the Arby set. I had no idea they had made more than 1.
I followed RvB religiously though. They were amazing. My favorite was when Caboose took down an entire team due to his rage of babies.
I haven’t seen many either Kyle. I remember finding them funny when I was younger, whether the stupidity will still entertain me is yet to be seen. I Might start watching them again to see.
