What I dont get is that they already enough Halo 5 + 6 without even have a retail Halo 4, what if Halo 4 is going to sold bad and get bad reviews when its got released? you make a crappy game and because you said we are going to make Halo 5 + 6 people are not expecting much of it anymore because Halo 4 was just bad, I'm not saying that it is going to be bad but its weird to already enough 2 more games without finish your first project.

x3nu	Wait, so that means he spent like (thinking USD) 700+ if he bought them all on release. Holy s***. Edited by: x3nu

Eh, now there's the one thing where he may have been smarter. I know of a store that has a legendary edition of Halo: Reach that's just sitting around and lowering in price (now if only that oversized box contained an Xbox 360 in it to go along with the game... then -maybe- I'd consider it...). I know of someone also from my old RPG group who got Halo Wars' special edition for just 50 bucks from Game Stop. Buying on release is just crazy these days. -- You know who's not got Facebook or Twitter? This guy*.

ambershee Nimbusfish Rawks	The Halo 4 creative director quit today. That's always a good sign things are going well..

How would you feel if Deadspace Wars was an RTS? Deadspace's present model wouldn't work as an RTS. It's about precise shooting and item managment. The best case scenario... one person micromanages a team of survivors (at max 7) and the other person controls necromorphs and the environment (at least initially). If they did that, then maybe I'd let it go by. Otherwise, I'd avoid it like the plague. -- You know who's not got Facebook or Twitter? This guy.

Based on both the "pro" videos they advertised below the article, and the fact IGN has led my wrong with 3 of their reviews... I barely even consider them valid in discussion. But aye x3nu, too much of a good thing is bad. Imagine if they had made a LEGO Starwars III (and still didn't include an editor). Oh wait... ** -- You know who's not got Facebook or Twitter?

And then, like Lucas Arts always does, they cut it because they wanted to release the game sooner than it should be. Nevermind that people have even figured out how to make levels emulative of -Deadspace- in appearance with the Indiana Jones 2 level editor.

JM_Scion	I'm kind of torn on this, because I love the Halo universe and want to see more of it, but I'm not sure a second major trilogy about the same character is necessary. Imagine if a few years after Tolkein finished writing "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, his publishers told a completely different author to write three more books about what happens to Frodo and Gandalf next. That's what this game feels like to me.

That's what this game feels like to me. I think a more accurate comparison would be a sequel to the original SW trilogy, continuing Luke and Han's story. It could be good, but it could be horrible. (I think it's a better comparison, because there is actually room there for a sequel, unlike in LotR, where Gandalf and Frodo leave Middle Earth)

Inbredguppey The Shaemon	Enough with the legos, jeez. Anywho, I would definately play halo 4 and all of its predecessors, no matter how bad they get, simply because I am collecting all of the halo games. Otherwise, I seem to be leaning towards the horror games other than the shooters. -- -Peace Off! - - - - - HP DV6 Quad Edition, AMD A8 3510mx (4 CPUs) 1.8/2.8GHz , AMD Radeon(tm) HD 6620g, 8GB Memory, 621GB HDD. - - - - - - - - -
