Honestly? I remember hearing about it, and seeing it, but no idea where to download it.

 

[Funky Papa]

It is rather mediocre. Don't waste your time.

 

[Matlock]

I didn't ask if I wanted to play it or not.

 

[snapty00]

Are you talking about the alleged GBA version?

Kinda, but I guess it was a PC homebrew game.

 

[snapty00]

Isn't there a guy making a GBA ROM from HAM or something?

2D Halo would rock on GBA - just licence it to Sega or Treasure to make and MS can reap in some cash.

Please, leave Treasure out of any modern 2D games

Huh?

Anyway, a Halo game is in development for GBA, at least according to Craig from IGN.

Um, Treasure made Ikaruga, and Astro Boy on GBA this gen...I consider those great modern 2D titles. Wario World was quasi-2d, as wel, and I enjoyed that to be honest with you.

Look, it's Halo 3, celshaded!

And Gradius V.

AGH wasn't a perfect clone of GH Saturn, and now they're the worst developer ever? Please, dude

The game is pretty cool, although hit detection and stupid enemies with too much hit points care major issues in the beta. Can't load any newer than the halomods.com beta, as I don't have a fileplanet account.

Anyone remember EGM's Halo 2 blowout a couple years ago? They used an isometric 2D illustrations for the game mechanics, looked like something that would be on GBA. Of course it was all made by EGM, but it made Halo on GBA sound really really cool if it would ever happen.

 

[Wario64]

Yeah,I remember that issue. The graphics used in that article was pretty cool. I feel like digging up that issue again actually...just finished Halo too and I need to get myself on the hype bandwagon

yeah, I can recall him bragging about "I knew Halo Advance was in development for AAAAAAGES!".... and one day after he posted that in IGN's mailbag, Bungie posted this on their own site:

No Handheld Halo
Recent internet reporting has suggested that a Game Boy version of Halo is in the works. We can officially lay that rumor to rest.

There is no Game Boy version of Halo planned, and none in production. It's very unlikely that such a version would ever happen for all the obvious reasons, and the less obvious reasons, that the ColecoVision talks fell apart and The Bandai Pippin version is taking up all our development bandwidth...

I love that stuff
