I barely remember what happened in the Greg Bear trilogy.
That entire second book was such a mess. Nothing happened for about 90% of it (Except for "OMG The master Builder is working with Mr. Krabbs!" or something) and then all of a sudden everything happens, 343 Guilty Spark lives, and then game over. Ugh.
The third book was better, but not by a whole lot.
Bear writes well, and he can go on for pages describing the most minute details in the background, but overall the entire trilogy was such a bore to go through.

There needs to be a Tron based FPS. It would be the shit, but I can't see it happening. Though, Disney green-lighted Battlefront, which will be a FPS most likely. Though, Tron is significantly less popular than Star Wars, so I don't really see Disney relaying resources to make that game. I'll settle for Tron in Halo, however.
I will agree with you about Primordium. It's a tedious read, but that ending was dope.
Yesssss. Always thought Forerunner vehicles that form around you would be incredible.

I would totally buy a sexy Mister Chief modeling Halo vehicles calendar. Seriously.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
My brother's name is Mike Ellis, but he is not this one.
Weirded me out when I saw his introduction email to the studio.

Said this in the wishlist thread, but I think Frankie wants to go on a date with me.

And will now be a character in Halo Wars 2. Her special power will be 3-shotting everything on the screen.

Dubstep gun in Halo 5? I'll take 10 copies!
You'd have to buy 10 copies anyway with all of your consoles.
"I bought 10 copies of Halo 5 because I didn't want to keep taking the disc in and out of every system so its on all of them now!"
This is actually believable Speedy logic

If we went to an action based (or "Sonar" based) tracker system
I feel like we would also need "Spotting"

Lol that could also just be my kind of logic except I collect them. So for me it depends on the number of editions the next Halo will arrive in

We wouldn't "need" it, but it could definitely help. Basic awareness quickly comes when you play several games without motion tracker. It really doesn't take an extensive amount of skills to be conscious of your surroundings and making informed decisions regarding movement.
It's just that people are so dependent on looking at those red dots instead of focusing on the action around them. Motion tracker is a crutch that hurts all players and the quality of matches, especially when coupled with other issues like easily sprinting away from fights, AA's, etc.

Halo Hoarders.
Basic premise is we find young people who can't fucking control themselves and buy up every needless/pointless money-grabbing device with Halo slapped on it, then repeatedly slap the shit out of their parents for being witless assholes who couldn't teach a rock how to be still.

I wont say that it in a blanket sense its a crutch, most casual players dont use the tracker appropriately and are killed OFTEN due to incompetence*
and poor word choice, I dont mean "needdddddddd" but I would like it
In BF I feel like spotting promotes teamwork and strategic awareness unlike any other team based action
For me thats just it, I just want the game to naturally adhere to my desire to be a team player, I know alot of ppl like Lone Wolf-ing it', but I do not whatsoever, I want to contribute to the team and when Halo is played right, with my full team capping a flag it feels great**

** inb4 1v1mebro, or 4v4 BR Slayer no radar or bust

Such bitterness. So it's wrong for me to spend my money on something that I actually like instead of spending it in on something that the mainstream approves of?
It's more about spending money on something actually practical and useful.
But I guess if you have that much money to kill then whatever

We've been here before, lets not go back
If they get enjoyment/happiness out of having Halo merchandise then good for them, its fun to get engaged in your hobby. Nobody in the MLB thread would be calling me out for getting a Reds themed bobblehead.

But in all fairness, if we dump on Speedy for spending thousands of dollars on shit we have to be respectful and make fun of everyone. That's what the internet is all about!

I got one of those from the MS store Tourney on Halo:Anni's launch night, it's a lot of fun to ride on.

Why is it in this Halo 4 live action scene they used the old Mk VI from Halo 2 based on the gauntlets of Chief's armor? Probably not important. Just a bit interesting.
I assume they used the same costume built for FUD, which is the Mark IV that looks like the mark VI from The Package.

That is interesting did mark VI change between 2 and 3? It's probably all they had to use like in forward unto dawn, deliver hope armor recycling.
