Halo |OT9| One Final Effort Is All That Remains
- Thread starter GhaleonEB
- Start date
I'm more interested in seeing how the S-IV's will react to the chief.
I like how people are already getting mad, without Nintendo publishing it the game doesn't exist.

I think Bayonetta 2, Rayman Legends, Wonderful 101, and NSMBU, that's what I think about it
What's the price point of the 360 SKU that can actually play Halo 4 multiplayer, again?
Yeah, Halo 1 is pretty blatant about that :lol
Will wait til Wii-U cost 100 before buying.

Might get a new xbox for Halo 4. Hope its as good as Halo Reach, that is my favourite Halo game.

Is that a trick question? All of them can, just plug in a flash drive.
But reach was by far the worst halo game in every category but graphics
Here's the thing, while Nintendo has the Wii U gamepad, smartglass will be out around the same time for the 360. Sure it won't have the properties that the gamepad has, it still opens up a lot of options for Microsoft to compete with Nintendo on that front.
Also, 360's at that price come with a minimum 250gb HDD and sometimes games if they are packed in. The Wii U has a whole 32gb HDD for the Deluxe Edition.

$300 just to play Beyonetta? No way.

I thought that pic was a cruel photoshop but Google corrected me. The tears of joy are sweet.
Your wallet says no but your body says yes.

Nah, of course not. But by the time it comes out there should be plenty of cool games to justify the price.

At least in the 'revamped' graphics mode there were arrows. Not sure if I remember seeing them in the 'classic' mode. Either way I guess I'm too pampered by modern FPS corridor standards.
I think in one of the novels which follows an elite
it doesn't specifically say it is Jun that dies while escorting Halsey, but it is implied.
Quick like a cat, sly like a fox, and witty as an English Crocodile this one is
Sorry, I'm taken

I was a lot more impressed with Mario than I thought I would be. Lately I've felt tired of the NSM games but this looked rad.
Definitely arrows in the original game.

I think it was the best, from the commercials, to the Noble team story, to the characters and soundtrack.

Eh.
If you say so, your money.
I see it as another gimmick console like the Wii, only it won't sell as well. A "next gen" system that is not next gen at all. If the next Xbox and PS4 are similar in price it will be pretty funny.
Some may enjoy it though.
And have to use Nintendo's online network? No Xbox Live? No friends? Eww.

First thing you learn in martial arts is that belts are for holding up your pants and keeping your gi closed. Further lessons teach you that colored belts are complete bullshit; the literal blood and sweat from years of mastering a martial art is what actually 'dyes' a white belt to make it look black.
Plus, Noble 6 went out like a fucking boss.
My martial art doesn't have belts, Wing Chun, I was just saying it in a general sense that you learn more advanced techniques the higher belt you are, you don't learn advanced moves/strikes/defenses when you've just begun, but moves like a wrist lock/throw (which could of been used to counter the elites stab) you learn at a low level of skill.
He hardly went out like a boss, the skull mask guy went out like a boss, get's stabbed in his spine turns around and stabs the elite before dying, Noble 6 just died instantly.
Worst death ever. Why didn't he try to start a single man guerrila campaign against the Covenant? All he did was to stand there and get killed.
Epitomizes how badly Reach is written.
You never finished the final mission? lol

I know, haha, I haven't played the campaign in so long I forgot, it began with an 'E' right? Emile?

You know you can move around and kill some Covenant?

Meaning "finished" by dying?

Whats the point?
I did finish the mission. It is just so fucking lame. The play area is small. Why i can't i hijack vehicles, why i can't i hijack Sprits and Phantoms? Establish supply caches, hide, try to assassinate local field masters, that's what you should be able to do.
At very least the final cutscene should be different depending on how many Covies you killed, as it is it doesn't matter.

The challenge, to see how long you can last. Sometimes I use it as a warmup before heading into matchmaking.
I think the point he was getting at was the wiiu is just now coming out, and you could have bought the xbox 360 7 years ago and, if it still worked, been able to play halo 4 this November when it comes out.
Also the standard wiiu only comes with 8gb of storage.
I love me some CoD style scripted moments!
Still "no buy".
New Zelda, New Metroid, Real Pokemon RPG and I will bite.
What is this? Am I in a paralell world?
Everything Leviathan has done and will do is canon
