Any reason why they keep calling this Halo for XBox One instead of Halo 5? I don't remember them being this vague about Halo 4's title.


According to a Microsoft exec it's because they wanted people to know that the Reclaimer trilogy (4, 5, 6) is no longer a trilogy. So not giving this a number is a way to make sure that that people know that there will be more than 3 games. Plus, I get the feeling that this is going to be more of personal game that's about the Chief as he tries to cope with Cortana's loss and likely tries to get her back, as opposed to dealing with the over-arcing plot of the Reclaimer storyline, in other words more a Halo 4 Part 2 than a Halo 5. Maybe I'm wrong and they'll still name it Halo 5, but I get the feeling that it'll be Halo with a subtitle. 


Ok, that's what I'm thinking too.  If it's coming this year and they still won't call it Halo 5, then it's probably as you said not going to be called Halo 5, but Halo: ?????.

I can't wait for Halo 5. I play the series for the single player, not the multiplayer. Though I still enjoy it. Halo 4 IMO has the second best single player in the franchise, behind Halo 1. Halo 1 > Halo 4 > Halo Reach > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Wars > Halo 3 > Halo 2. That is ranking the single player experience for me.

Yay! Halo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets bring massive Halo love. My fave game series ever made. 



This is what will push an xbo purchase for me. Dont fuck it up MS.

Can't wait to play Halo in 60fps

You think they'd do that over better visuals?

Well it was officially announced that the game would run at 60fps at E3, so I guess that'd be a yes.

Well, if Forza 5 is anything to go by... we can expect the second coming of Halo 2.


Is that supposed to be a bad thing? Minus the glitches due to being rushed, Halo 2 was my favorite game thus far. I loved switching between Chief and the Arbiter, I loved the multiplayer, I loved the story (including the cliffhanger ending). 


I mean a rushed game.

if they would have rushed it, it was here at launch.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

"Halo: The Journey", Kinect exclusive, confirmzd.

But in all seriousness, could it mean the tv series or something?

Ha ha ha.  This will sell like crazy if people can virtually poke Cortana.

This just in Xbox One to overtake everything in Japan.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Tell me a funny joke!

If Halo 5 will be less CoD like I'd be interested.



I hope they bring Halo out in 2015 its too soon



If it's going to launch this year we are going to get a LOT of payed DLC later on that's for sure.
