I don't care about not getting into a game in the playlist, nor do I care about the lack of announcements regarding their new game, nor do I care for another steak. I've had too much in the past few days as it is.
What did it for me was a superlative filled article from Urk, just like the ones we used to get in between Halo 1 and 2. The ones that Frankie would write to drive us into a rabid fanboyish tizzy.
I've found myself less active around here, and not as excited as I used to be, since there's nothing really new coming for a while, and especially considering Aerospace wasn't what I expected (couldn't give less of a -blam!- about mobile games, personally). But that last paragraph reminded me of those days when we were anxiously waiting for the next tidbit of info regarding H2, and we'd devour them as they came, analyzing them far too closely, looking for anything new so we could rush and make a poorly written thread about it before anyone else did.
We knew nothing at all about what was coming. All we knew was Installation 04. How could they possibly be improving our baby, Halo? New vehicles? New weapons? Earth! What's that weapon that Jackal is holding? It's a new weapon! No it's a Needler you stupid -blam!-! No you're -blam!- stupid! Will they bring back the pistol? lol ur a ghey pistol whore!
We didn't have the same kind of excitement for Halo 3 or Reach. We had already experienced the excitement of that first sequel, the game that started this silly midnight game launch trend. We won't have it for Halo 4 or anything Halo after it, doubly so for me, considering that I don't trust anyone but Bungie with Halo.
So we find ourselves in the dark once again. There are no screenshots to over-analyze, no hints from Frankie or Urk, no cakes full of pies, no ninjas on fire going 150 mph through a hospital zone, no Mister Chief at the end of the weekly updates that actually had info to share. Yet. Hopefully it'll be soon.
I can't wait to go through that amazing and horrible experience again.
This.
I do miss anticipating the weekly updates like I did back before Halo 2 came out. They teased so much yet gave away so little and it got me very, very excited for the game. I just want there to be something, anything to talk about Bungie wise since there hasn't been for a while.
