Subject: Halo 4?? Let the series die with honor.

M$G/343 is going to ruin the fond memories I have of Halo. For every future installment that comes out, the pinnacle point of the series will be diminished.

Whether your favorite was Halo CE, 2, 3, ODST, or Reach, know this: Halo will be much different this time around. Reach showed the age of the Bungie series -- with sprint not being a default option, among other things. M$G/343 will make changes to bring this into the mainstream. It's the only way they will be able to compete -- and you M$ is all about the dollars. Honestly, are Bungie fans going to play this trilogy once the new Bungie IP drops? No. Are other FPS fans going to play this trilogy if it plays similar to past Halos? No. The series will change. And I suspect for the worse.

Can't we just remember the glory days of halo without an annual slap-in-the-face installment to serve as a reminder of how good things used to be?

I... AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID.

Can I get a highfive?

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

You do realize putting an $ instead of an S in Microsoft doesn't make you cool right?

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

^This.

and if anything, if Halo 4 wasn't made, the last Halo would have been Reach. That would be dying without "honor".

Halo is definitely in good hands... these people know what's up. They will make the ultimate Halo I can feel it

I like the idea of remaking CE, I just hope that not to many radical changes occur in H4. I'll buy it none the less

You realize that posting off topic is against forum rules, right? STFU and GTFO.

To answer a prior post: I know the trailer looked good. Not saying it didn't. But then again, Avatar looked good too. It's just CGI. Story, cut scenes, etc have nothing to do with gameplay. Which is what I am concerned about.

It will be Halo: CoD 8 or 10 or whatever they are up to now.

And I wouldnt have such a problem with that if they just didn't call it halo. Why not just leave the Halo name alone and use some other word from the Halo universe? It certainly wont be a Halo game.

Do not panic, or you will fail.

Are Bungie's fans so blinded by that allegiance that they are unwilling to play a game that they loved for years?

Something tells me that they are not.

  • 06.07.2011 5:19 PM PDT

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

You think it's going to ruin the memories? Isn't that what they said about Halo 2? Then Halo 3? Then ODST? Then Reach? Now Halo 4? Well, hate to break it to you, but with every Halo installment I still have great memories dating back to Halo 1 from each Halo game. What? Do you think Halo 4 is going to hypnotize you and wipe out your memory? I mean c'mon. What you should be thinking is, "Wow...Halo 4 is going to create so many new memories to store with the precious memories of Halos past..."

I don't get why people think that they are going to be releasing a new "main" game every year. CoD is only able to do this because they have two companies working in offset years, which gives them two years for each game.

Also, 343 has a bunch of ex-Bungie employees on staff. I am going to assume they are there because they are passionate about Halo. The series is in good hands. If you aren't even going to give it a chance just because Bungie isn't making it, then your immaturity is astounding.

Haha. Yeah, this. You really want the last Halo game to be the worst? Reach? C'mon. That was an abomination. All the others were great, though.

Imagine a triangle. It's perfect, but a little plain. You take a chisel, and carve a small decorative symbol into it to make it a little more interesting. People like it, but it could use a little more.

So you then take a sledgehammer..

Oh the irony.

OT: How do you know? We'll just have to wait and see how Halo 4 turns out.

dude, 343 is made up of X-bungie members- which means its a part of bungie, even though its not in the name.

Not ruin them. Just dilute them. Like adding water to fine scotch.

Let me ask you all this: are you going to watch Ashton Kutcher replace Charlie Sheen on 2 and 1/2 men? Of course not.

Things will be different. They will be mainstream. They will be worse.

And, by the way, 343 is made up of SOME ex bungie employees. But they are Busch-leaguers. Think about it. Would you choose to work for 343 if you had the chops to work for Bungie?

You realize that forum copping is against the rules, right?

I'm exited for Halo 4. If you're not, no one is forcing you to play. I mean, I totally understand your immense hatred for it, the storyline and gameplay elements Frankie outlined seemed a bit fishy.

Why would you stop fans from getting another copy of a wonderful series? I'm a huge fan of Halo, but I wouldn't want them to stop just because I wanted to move on to bigger and better(?) things... I'd just stop playing their games...

  • 06.08.2011 3:13 AM PDT

First, about 1.000.000 people that watched the Halo 4 trailer don't agree with you. Second, why would MS let their money cow die? Third, why should CoD live without honor and Halo die with honor. I would like more Halo to stay and send CoD to the grave

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I know. They changed his armor. I don't know why, but they did.

Plus, my Spartan on Reach looks more like Chief from CE (if you take off the gear-for the record, I'm not a Chief impersonator, I just like Mark V armor) than their stupid remastered edition.

That statement is true and false. Some people, like me, love Halo's plot but just know it's not going to do well in the hands of an inexperienced video game company. So I guess I'm a Bungie~Halo fan, not a/an [Insert Company Here]~Halo fan.

Also, it's really pathetic to make predictions about a game and tell it sucks when it was just announced.

First, this armor is more canon. Second, that wasn't a jet pack. It was a zero gravity thruster which he had since Halo 2, but dumb guys like you never actually knew it. Third, there is a difference from Chief from CE and Chief from Halo 2 and 3. The armor is different, in the trailer he has Mark 6, in CE he has Mark 5 so why do you even compare it?
