Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 it is also going to be open area which i like im a little sick of it being so linear
Rogue15 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I just got back into playing Halo 3. It's definitely one of the best console shooters out there.
Lynk Former Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 it is also going to be open area which i like im a little sick of it being so linear Yeah, that's one of the things that has sparked my attention. I'm a big fan of Metroid so non-linear gameplay interests me greatly.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 "I just got back into playing Halo 3. It's definitely one of the best console shooters out there." ~ Rouge15 Halo is one of the best console shooters one because it is not impossibly complicated like ghost recon was (i think thats the game im thinking of) and 2 it isnt too easy to beat or on the other hand too hard
Rogue15 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I'm a fan of GRAW 2. It would've been MUCH better if ubisoft would've put in a matchmaking system similar to Halo, that's why i hardly play it, it's not hard to play, I just get sick of playing headquarters all the ****ing time-ESPECIALLY when I've paid for DLC that rarely gets utilized. The matchmaking system is fair.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 Well i would like to steer the conversation back to Reach or even Halo
Rogue15 Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 lets hope the multiplayer/coop is just as good as in halo 3. and they also have theatre mode and even more stuff. can't wait to see what weapons and such the ODST's are gonna have.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 20, 2009 Author Posted June 20, 2009 ODST is gonna have a knew kind of multiplayer Firefight and there ore only 2 new weapons as of now The new pistol scilenced with scope and scilencer and a new SMG with scope and scilencer
Revan 411 Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 Just a question, is ODST coming in a box set like regular video games or do you have to exclusively download it from Xbox Live? The reason why I'm asking this is because I just simply do not want to buy MS points when I could use the money I used to buy MS points to buy the actual game. Confusing sentence, I know.
Lynk Former Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 It's a boxed game you buy at a store. Also comes with all of the downloadable content that you would've had to buy for Halo 3.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 21, 2009 Author Posted June 21, 2009 yeah most people thought it was an expansion its it's own game so it comed in a box not DLC
Insignia_Enithma Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 yeah i will never get tired of halo it is the ultimate franchise next to star wars Wow, do you honestly think this, or is it just some poor joke. Silent, brooding power armor guy with rifle and and a chip on his shoulder. How is that the ultimate series. More additions to the franchise are likely to bring more S.B.P.A.G with chips on their shoulders. To put it bluntly... only 14 year olds with no clue think Halo is epic. Thats not true, only 12 year olds.... Is this your view as well? I know lots of people over my age that think Halo is epic how about for example most of the people on Podtacular i listen to them in adition to Lucascast Again, this is a joke right. Or do I seriously need to re-adjust my thoughts on the fate of humanity, and media. I understand what you are saying to some degree but i still maintain that halo *did* have a good story untill it started being corrupted by the multiplayer craze then it started to decline a bit but what they are trying to do with reach and ODST is show other angles of the story so it isnt quite the same but it is still Halo and i disagree with your comment that it has "been done before" You are right. Halo had a good storyline. It's sequels however.... And all games on the 360 seem to be corrupted by the multiplayer xbox live stuff.
ironheart Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I think going beyond a trilogy in a series is a wee bit overkill. Unless you have some revolutionary idea it kinda gets old. I like Halo, but what more can they do with it?
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 well i think doing ODST and Reach is revolutinary it shows it from a new point of view there is added content for multiplayer and more story but thats my opinion
Rogue15 Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I don't know what you mean by 'revolutionary' the story and stuff is all new, etc. I'm not sure what they can improve on or create to 'revolutionize' it. The main NEW thing that i liked about 3 was live co-op and being able to watch and save replays of matches. Also the party-up mode is nice in multiplayer. Not sure what they can do to improve single player, that has never been done before.

This is of course the big problem with allot of new games, par a few, people really only see the multiplayer experience. If I still had my 360 I may have picked up reach, but its doubtful.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 well yeah i guess it was too strong a word
Rogue15 Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Revolutionary is to introduce something new, which Halo 3 didn't really do.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 in that case it did it had theater forge and several new ways to play single and multi-player
Avisto Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 in that case it did it had theater forge and several new ways to play single and multi-player Sorry, what? Forgive me because I haven't played halo 3 in quite some time, but the whole game is just shoot shoot shoot shoot. The story was bad as well. The only reason I beat the campaign was because I had a friend to play it with me, and we beat it on legendary the first day, so we found it lacking in difficulty. Please go into more detail about what was new and revolutionary about the single player.

He may be referring to the playing single player over live, and the other way, playing single play over live with douche bags.
Mandalore The Shadow Posted June 26, 2009 Author Posted June 26, 2009 He may be referring to the playing single player over live, and the other way, playing single play over live with douche bags. well that and you could play four player without all of you being Master Chief and i admit it did have a lock of difficulty i have beeten it on every difficulty as well
Tobias Reiper Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I'm pretty sure I heard Bungie say somewhere that Halo Wars was to be the last of the Halo Franchise. What happened to that? Bunch of Liars.
