Ghaleon-esque story time.

Setting: the beautiful Standoff
Time: feels like it was just yesterday
Tone: Sadface

I just launched someone out of our way and we're clear to take the territory. Blood has different plans:

Not only that but he simply runs into the base after flipping us:

Result: I stand alone as a seventh wheel trying to keep the others from seeing my falling tears.

Sadface total

 

[Domino Theory]

Halo "Blue" :lol

A trusted source has informed ******* that the Wal-Mart internal internet known as "The Wire" contains an entry for a new Halo game entitled Halo "Blue". According to the entry, Halo "Blue" is an M rated shooter and it's set to release on September 30 this year.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Halo "Blue" :lol

Lies

 

[The Librarian]

Halo "Blue" :lol

Is Bungie going to do the other six colors of the rainbow?

 

[Spruchy]

Do alot of people from GAF still play? With all the trolls around Halo 3's launch I thought it would die down around here. Wouldnt mind playing a few matches with everyone if you still do.

I'm pretty good

 

[Sibylus]

So I youtubed the Legendary ending.

Wat wat? This is better than the real ending! Sadface.

 

[Mr Vociferous]

Wat wat?

Wut wot?

 

[DancingJesus]

Back from vacation, Christ this thread moves fast! Looking forward to Bungie's announcement later today.

Repackaged special edition with mappacks?

No way they'd suprise launch a bungie halo game without marketing the hell out of it.

=( I can't really say anything until I see it though, so I'll keep my mouth shut. Though, didn't Bungie hire someone from the GRAW team before Halo 3 shipped? Uh ohz.

funny, I see this as potentially awesome news and you're all frowns!

Halo Blue is a cool name. Halo without MC is an interesting venture. What is the problem here? Obviously Bungie will do more Halo projects, but keyword: in ADDITION to new IPs.

Even if Bungie is not involved in this one, we know our good man Frank is. It's basically a win/win, so stop your uh-ohs.

I'm here and ready for announcement times. I was able to install x-chat but I don't think I'm able to connect to any of the servers. I'll be here waiting for everyone to fill me in when Bungie announces their non-Halo XBLA game.

MS... FREE... :lol

I think efnet is down right now.

I can't seem to connect to any of the servers. I bet it has something to do with the fact that I'm connected through the company's servers.

Not free. Master Chief Free.

 

[The Lamonster]

Not free. Master Chief Free.

I AM A TYPICAL BUNGIE FAN AND I WILL BE PISSED NOW IF IT IS IN FACT NOT FREE

 

[joey_z]

A game based on spartan team Blue from the novels? Actually my memory is shit. Was there any spartan team blue?

 

[EazyB]

I AM A TYPICAL BUNGIE FAN AND I WILL BE PISSED NOW IF IT IS IN FACT NOT FREE

If you're a true Bungie fan you're already pissed and will be even more pissed either way.

 

[kylej]

I hope we get a Marty remix of Blue for the title screen

[The Lamonster]

If you're a true Bungie fan you're already pissed and will be even more pissed either way.

As soon as I first played Halo on that big ass controller, I was instantly pissed that Bungie is such a talented developer and they do not forever serve my every need in games and in life.

It's the GRAW style combat that gets me. I just can't picture Halo like that unless there are some big changes. As I said though, I'll wait and see before I make any conclusions.

 

[Tashi]

Has this "Halo Blue" been even confirmed yet?

 

[urk]

Has this "Halo Blue" been even confirmed yet?

Nope. It's speculation based on rumor and an entry in Wal-Mart's system. Not long now though and we'll have something official on something.

 

[EazyB]

Something official on something.

You sure?

 

[Dirtbag]

So since efnet is down.


Bungie e3 irc group will be on

server: irc.blackened.com

[Buttonbasher]
