Rock* games are uninspiring games with huge budget, that lack personality and soul.

The total opposite of Shenmue. After playing Shenmue I can't get into those games..

I like some mainstream games like Gears, Fifa, FM..

Listening to that audio episode, I get the sense that the UNSC/Oni is trying to smear the Master Chief in the eyes of the public so that they will accept it when they attempt to do away with him.

Rockstar did copy alot of things that Shenmue did, and then somehow managed to be remembered as the creator of those things by many people, despite the fact that they "borrowed" those things from Shenmue. Kind of sad for Sega honestly.

But I enjoy Rockstar games nonetheless, especially in the absense of Shenmue 3.

Well that's how this industry works, terrible stuff is hyped as the next coming of God all days. Like gta, uncharted or tlou. 

That's why I only trust my own taste.

Please be Flood xD they keep talking about some big threat

It's possibly the flood. Could also be the Guardians though, whoever or whatever they are.

Vicious bastards that kill you for having the audacity to venture a few metres outside MP maps. Control freaks they are

GTA is nowhere near as good as Rockstar's other games imo. It's overhyped so darn much. Red Dead Redemption, Bully, and LA Noire are all so much better than even the best GTA.

I agree. GTA is their most boring franchise by far. Red Dead was leagues better than any of them, and LA Noire for all it's flaws was still a vastly more interesting game

LA noire or red dead are not my thing at all, for setting/genre reasons.

bully might be ok tho, I like school settings.(Quite rare) that's one of the reason I like persona/type.

Seriously though, if 343 finds a way to connect those random multiplayer deaths to an actual race or species, it would be amazing. The Guardians subtitle for Halo 5 does seem to suggest that it's possible, though Guardians could be refering something else. 

An AI race of some kind would be amazing. Afterall, the computer controlled turrets on Sandtrap are one of the things that give you Guardian deaths. If they were an AI race, maybe they'd have a way to bring back Cortana and give her a permanent hard light body. Maybe that was the Cortana appearance in Halo 5 that Mike Colter teased recently, maybe the Guardians will revive Cortana and Chief will have to save her from them? I don't know, there are so many cool possibilities of things they could do in Halo 5. I just hope they do some of them.

I honestly don't think the term Guardians refers to a race. If I recall correctly, the Didact seemed to imply that the Forerunners were the Guardians of the galaxy because they held the mantle of responsibility, something that the Librarian meant to be passed to the humans I guess, but clearly he didn't like that idea lol.

I think the mantle is actual some physical thing as well cus at one point in Halo 4 he mentions with some small surprise that humanity isn't in possession of it yet

I don't know, LA Noire's setting seems kind of similar to that Mystereet F visual novel that 5 pb is working on, you might like it. As for Red Dead, you probably won't like it if you don't like western movies. Personally I like both westerns and noir movies, so both games were right up my alley.

Bully is actually very good, you should grab it the next time it's on sale for $3 on 360, which happens fairy often.

Mystereet is fine cause is a VN, I don't need to shoot anything nor is a sandbox.

I think Halsey  is the only one who can bring her back.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

The chaos that comes with GTA is probably why it's viewed so highly but I 100% agree with you, it's probably their worst franchise in terms of quality.
