I know its old and its been done over and over again but the release of Halo 4 got me thinking about the original games. I've been watching the Cinematics for Halo 1 and Halo 2 on YouTube.

What a great piece of story telling...
 
halo 4 is the next blockbuster installment in the iconic franchise that's shaped entertainment history and defined a decade of gaming. Set in the aftermath of halo 3, master chief returns to confront his own destiny and face an ancient evil that threatens the fate of the entire universe. halo 4 marks the start of a new trilogy that begins with its release in 2012.


Mo$o$oo$oo$oo$oo!!!!!
 
M$ is for sure milking the cow for all they can. Didnt Halo 2 do something like $100 million on its release day or something?
 
Halo? You mean the one from way back when?

I have sold EVERY game i've played in the last ten years, EXCEPT for my Halo copy. That is (perhaps) the best game i've ever played, and i've been playing since 1978.

Halo 2 - really good, the best multiplayer experience (with Mw2 a close second).

AND - do you know this???? HALO COMBAT EVOLVED!! Release date next month - the exact Halo game updated for Xbox 360 - i am pumped to play it all over in Glorious HD!! Check it out.

Yup, thats the Halo I'm talking about. I ended up watching the Cinematics from H2 and H3.

I wonder where the Arbitor is in the H4 world? The ship that he and MC were on ended up getting cut in half at the end of H3 buy the portal...

Yeah...that's me...and that's how much I dig Halo!
 
Halo 1: Awesome
Halo 2: Garbage
Halo 3: Pretty cool
Halo ODST: meh
Halo Reach: Almost as awesome as Halo 1

Halo Anniversary: Campaign will be great because its just Halo 1, but I dont know about using Reach weapons/equipment in Multi. Why they can't just do original Halo 1 multi with new graphics is beyond me.

I agree with most of what you've said. H2 was shit. I waited in line at midnight for this game and the multiplayer was just ass. H3 was so so. Reach was damn good. But I completely agree with H1. If they would just take the first Halo(old graphics and all) and made it online multiplayer, I doubt I would ever play anything else ever again. Hell, I had to play H1 on XBConnect just to get my online fix.

You've hit the nail on the head.

Halo CE was the best. Great story, great multiplayer. We literally LANed the heck out of that game.

Halo 2 was a drag. They changed almost everything that made the first game so great. The on line multiplayer pretty much created the cheaters, name callers, laggers, modders, and jerks that still screw up the experience for most on line games.

Halo Reach was better, but still if they had just went back to the original weapons from the original game it would have been so much more fun to play.

Explosive bullets kick ass!

Did you ever go to a web site called "Halo2sucks" back in the day?

I used to be an Admin there. There were a lot of people who hated Halo 2, many of them were the top players, the best of the best. Like Pyro and Walshy.

You got that right. What an awesome universe. It of course has been expanded upon since the original game but I love the Halo universe.
