What should happen is, when Bungie decides to make a game, we make them pull little pieces of paper out of a hat with ideas and concept suggestions. The first 3 they pick they have to combine to make a game out of

No Guns
Platforming
Modern Day
Jim Henson
Dinosaurs
HP Lovecraft
Surviving an Arctic Mountaineering Ordeal
No or Minimal Killing

Galapagos

etc.

I'll take:

HP Lovecraft

Surviving an Arctic Mountaineering Ordeal

No or Minimal Killing (unless it's the player being killed)

Basically Dark Corners of the Earth on Mt. Everest...

 

 

 

See i'd go "No Guns, Lovecraft, Jim Henson."

You'd get a lovecraftian party game.  It'd sell Xboxes to all those preteen/young teen lovecraftian girls... and also be the mass merchandising opurtunity that would replace the Lovecraft plushies as number 1 for making lovecraft roll in his grave.

Microsoft really should learn how to play their cards close to their chest. I mean a few things about Nintendo and Sony leaked out, but there's been something new about MS every day! And they're true (avatars, price drop).

That's true.  I thought the Avatars thing was a joke.  That and Lips.  Really?  "Lips" they couldn't come up with a better name?

Yeah, I don't get "lips" either.

Seems kinda stupid to me.  I guess "Singstar" is the only good name for a singing game, cause I'm stumped trying to think of a good name for a Karaoke game, without using the word "Karaoke".

I thought the avatars thing could be a joke, but it seemed pretty legitimate to me.  But it probably is a joke, but still doesn't change the fact that Lips, The Pro price reduction, and introduction of the 60 GB model were all leaked.  Rock Band 2 was announced before E3, so I just fail to see what MS will show us at E3 that's unexpected.



well these type of games is what they do best so its not to hard to believe

"According to the source, the new Halo game will be a spin-off that resembles "a cross between Ghost Recon and Gears of War." It will reportedly tell a "less cartoony" and "more bloody, violent, and grim" tale of a battle between UNSC forces and the pan-racial religious empire known as the Covenant."

That's a shame. One of the things I like about the Halo franchise is how cartoony/bizarre-looking the Covenant and Flood look. All of those bright neon colors and strange enemy designs set them apart, looks-wise, from most other FPSs.

And anyway, don't we have more than enough dark, grim, bloody shooters right now?

 

A true visionary right here haha.  QFT.

Anyways I'll see if this turns out true at E3 and then give judgement one way or another.



Can't these developed make a game that isn't a shooter? I am not saying I am not excited.

You mean the guys that shot at the enemy but never actually hit anything? The guys that would look at you and sit still looking at you expecting you to kill everything? The bastard that ran me over with a warthog?

I hated those marines, they did nothing! The best parts were the ones where the Elites would join you. They were pretty badass when they rushed a Hunter and started to kung fu fight them :)

But who knows, this could turn out to be really great.

 It still could be Marathon. Just adapted into a Graw/Gears style on the Halo planet. Who knows?



Feel free to add me as your friend-PSN ID: Bobo012893

if they were to make another Halo shooter, why did they even split off from Microsoft in the first place?
