    Halo 4

    Weeeeeeeeeeeeeelll I umm'd and rrrrr'd and made a few strange noises and thought fuck it and after having queued last time for Halo 3 thought I'd give this one a miss for a month or two. What with circumstances the way they are too many of my evenings are freeing up... anyways, I went and dun boughted it.

    I wasn't hyped up about it so it didn't let me down. I didn't think it was amazing or anything. But still worth playing.
    Haven't played multiplayer yet.
    is <3 supposed to be a heart or an ass hat?

    Halo 3 was a disappointment to say the least, went to play it & thought "fuck am I playing Halo 2 again?"
    I'm in no rush for Halo 4, tho I'm told they did try to keep true to Bungie's legacy so this will probably be the last proper Halo before it turns like Sonic, a sold out franchise who's struggling to find the glory days of old... Just my opinion tho

    Isn't the point of a sequel to be like the original? I thoroughly enjoyed the whole series except for ODST (halo should not need maps). Will get Halo 4 eventually, but I'm still working on Forza 4 so not in any huge hurry...

    Hubby went and queud with 15 y old son on Monday night ( had preordered game at Armagedon), came back with tshirts and a cap.

    Spent three hours last night playing, came out as happy as a drunk in a free piss up.

    Maybe you need to be 15 to enjoy it?

    no I mean the gfx were that piss poor I thought I was playing 2 again for a hyped up this gen game it was a massive disappointment especially given what GOW had shown a year before... because of Halo 3 I jumped decidedly on the Gears bandwagon when it came to 360 so I've only dabbled with reach & ODST haven't played them properly. As for Halo wars, I have no intention of ever touching that one

    Yeh I see what you mean about 3, I think reach stepped up a bit on that front, was definitely the most modern Halo, but the gameplay/story was perhaps not quite as good as 3. As for Halo wars, we do not talk about halo wars.

    I played Reach and ODST and wasn't overly enthused, probably because they focussed more of their energy on the online version instead of the Campaign. I think they lost their way when they moved away from the sprawling landscapes, even the "close" quarter battles had an element of space about them. Whilst I'm quite happy smackin 'em over the head, I'd like it weighted more to having slightly more space, but not too much . It'd be nice to be able to control my AI too (the reason I loved the Ghost Recon series, Full Spectrum Warrior etc...). Gears did nothing for me, prolly coz I didn't give it too much of a chance. And yes, Halo wars got a full 2 hours of my attention before heading to tardme. Halo 2 was by far the best gameplay, although 1 ain't far behind that at all (online too).

    As for Halo 4... More tight spaces and when not, too much distance (only a couple or 3 hours in), better enemy AI, a pretty game but nothing really new so far. Praps it'll get better... although it looks like they've probably not spent too much time on the campaign again. Too much running to get nowhere in particular for my liking. Cortana looks damned fine. Probably won't play this one online unless they've done it like the original Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, which I very very much doubt.

    I'll probably grab it to keep up with the Joneses. Offline so just co-op campaign play for me and the mates. Need a break from MW3 co-op Survival on Resistance - stuck at wave 42.

    Borderlands 2 will keep me busy for a while so I haven't got Halo 4 yet. Looking forward to Skyrims Dragonborn DLC (should be on PC in January), Crysis 3 in February and the next Half-Life game in fuck-knows-when.

    Since this seems to be going more into a generic gamers thread (we should probably have one), it begs the question

    Can it run Crysis 3?



    The answer is of course, no, no it cannot, followed by derisive laughter. Was about time to build a new PC anyway...
