That's the first time I've ever head it called IX :lolDomino Theory said:
So while the thought of anime Halo was the most absurd thing I'd ever heard, there seems to be quite a few people enthused about it. I'm still not convinced I'll enjoy it but I'mma get around to tracking down youtube videos of those companies' works because it's sparked a bit of interest in me.
I still remember going to my father's house when I was around 8 and he'd always throw in a Ghost in the Shell anime movie for me to watch before going to bed. It may've been because I was young but I remember it being gruesome as shit and giving me nightmares. I vaguely remember bewbs...
The leaked achievement list showed around 7 or 8 firefight maps IIRC.Kuroyume said:
Edit: And thanks for the impressions Voltron, glad to hear things worked out.

Halo Portal??
Confirmed!
wait, what?
I'm not overly hyped for Halo: Legends, or even ODST's campaign/FireFight a whole lot, either, to be brutally honest. I'm more anticipating Halo Reach's beta and finishing out Halo 3's MM with Heretic and Longshore.
I'm sure FireFight will be fun a few months, but after that, back to Halo 3 MM with 3 Ball, Grifball, and the monthly minor changes. At least, of course, until Halo Reach's beta.

Holy shit, from what I remember there used to be around 20 pages of submissions, now the forum has 120...NOKYARD said:
You'd think someone over there woulda done something by now. Hope the Atlas community isn't hurt by this stunt. Troll Shishka all you want, but doing something like this to Atlas isn't going to help anybody.

God's honest truth (which God? Whatever).
Frankie, when is 343 Industries going to get some kind of website?
Is the XBL portal the closest thing we'll have to that?
Just saw the trailer

Over 127 pages of HAHAHA threads, and the guy is making a new thread with his different accounts every minute. What a douche bag.NOKYARD said:
A buddy of mine played some Firefight yesterday at Comicon and had some interesting things to say regarding the previously mentioned grenades:
Pretty interesting, and sounds like it'll be tough to get the hang of it (at least for me).

Halo Waypoint was apparently given a non-specific release date of Fall (in the press release at least).

I remember thinking that after Halo 3 was released that the Halo franchise would slow down. LOL boy was i wrong. This is great though.

Oh wow, I think I'll go make a thread about this in the Septagon...
A couple friends of mine also headed out to Comic-con and sent back some good reviews on Firefight and the "new" pistol. Although I don't have any pictures =*(
Definitely getting excited for Firefight even if there's only 7 maps for it.

Voltron, nice impressions. Hopefully the changes between ODST and Halo 3 (grenade arcs) won't make it too difficult to switch back and forth between the two games.
I eagerly await what a new Halo game from 343 Industries is going to look like.

Sweet take on the game, thanks for that. I'm kinda surprised at the hijacking wraith thing, I thought that might be one of the features taken out between Halo 3 and ODST. And that BO guy must have been suffocating in that helmet.
This is kinda random, but I really like the Halo: Waypoint logo. I don't know why.

Halo Legends looks stupid. I feel like the franchise is effectively alienating everyone who dislikes anime, such as myself and, I would expect, at least 50% of the Halo community. Bad move.

So why would this appeal to you anyway?
And I don't see how it alienates people any more than the novels or graphic novel?
Many of the announced Halo projects are intended to pull in current Halo fans as well as - possibly - some others who are not familiar with the games. Halo Wars did it, by trying to appeal to Halo players and also those wanting an RTS. Halo Legends will likewise pull most of its audience from the player base, but could see some incremental around the edges from those more interested in anime.
Everything Microsoft and Bungie does to to expand the franchise will only appeal to a subset of the current fan base, outside of a new, full Halo game. This is true of anime, books, the soundtracks, DLC, you name it.

I'm not much of an Anime fan but it doesn't bother me that they are making one. I'm just looking forward to ODST, Reach, and beyond.

The joke is that Master Chief is going to put his penis inside Hard Gay, who is from Japan.

From the discussion here, people were not worried about how the narrative elements of Halo will continue but whether the team can put out a great game, considering it'll be their first as 343 Industries.Letters said:
(That's what I remember us saying anyway)
It's apparently going to be a portal/area on XBL for anything Halo. There's something on it on Inside Xbox apparently?FFChris said:

Was addressed (partially) by Bungie yesterday here.
Seemingly some test data. Gives you an error if you try dl it.
Also (<3 HBO) Blomkamp has said he's done with Halo, and if the movie is made he almost definitely will choose not to go back.

You're so subtle.urk said:
I got a lot more confident in the direction of the Halo franchise when Frank was hired. Bungie has a tradition of hiring much of their talent direct from their fan base, bringing people who are already passionate about Bungie (and Halo) to the next project. It's been one of the things that has made the series evovle in the direction it has, making it so reflective of their fans desires.Letters said:
Frank's hire at Bungie was part of that, and his move to Microsoft I took as a signal that the same kind of passion that has served Bungie so well would carry forward there. I'll still judge every game individually and reserve judgment for final products, etc, but I'm more optimistic about the direction of Halo under Microsoft than I was last year. I think at the high-level, they're making some good decisions.

I downloaded them when they first showed up (couple months ago I think?)
Obviously I was very disappointed.
