Well, I found it funny.
Can't believe it seems like only one other person found it funny too.

Then perhaps you should clear it all up if you've got all the insider information. |
I would, but there is next to no actual information on the game. Bungie has said, however, that the game would definitely be less than the cost of a new retail game. There is absolutely no information on actual gameplay mechanics. All of your dislike for the game is based on rumor and speculation.

No fast easy user friendly gameplay, instead replaced by a slow stealthy tactical gameplay (If that's what we wanted then Ghost Recon would have sold 9 million copies! not halo!). No swords, no hammerzeits. This should just be called Ghost Recon advanced halo. |
| Solid_Raiden said: My God Microsoft are some smart SOBs. They make games that by any other name nobody would want, add Halo to the title, throw in a map pack and people go crazy. Nobody sees they are being duped, everyone buys, microsoft makes money, players get expensive as hell maps. God gamers are so stupid. They complain about DLC for games bitching that the games are incomplete but can't see this rip off right in front of them. Why should players have to buy a $60 game that most likely won't interest them for some new maps? That is one of the most sleezy things I've seen this gen. |
Bungie has already stated that the game will not be full priced. That can be confirmed.
well i will never buy halo expansion pack as im not a halo fan............i do however predict huge sales for halo expansion, mabey if i had live gold i could have tried halo online. but thats that i suppose, still a huge title for 360 in 2009 but i think il pass
...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...
PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk
really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...
they will delay it if it sucks.
Note: Some games in my collection are no longer owned, but have owned.

Clearly none of the Halo's have ever been delayed. They have always had a set release date and this is more of an expansion rather than actual game. So clearly if it doesn't sale well its not Bungie's or Microsoft's fought, its the fans fought for not buying it. This expansion is for the fans to crave over until Bungie brings out its next wealth of games.

My point has been proved. No one took the time to read through and decipher the foot notes. =(
Seriously people, figure out the foot notes, read the whole thing, and you won't be mad at me anymore =)
Without shields and the master chief, it's gonna be borring and sucky like CoD4.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

Now, before you all attack me, make sure you read carefully to fully understand my reasons and maybe you too will share my opinion. First off, why would I want to buy this game?1 It is effectively taking off from a part in the Halo 2 storyline, then expanding upon it... So shouldn't it be called Halo 2: ODST? Heck, why do they even use the 3 in it at all? It seems like it would be much more fitting to just call it Halo: ODST. Second, they are going to be making this game to play similar to a Ghost Recon game, hence the original "Recon" title. The new protagonist is not some biologically enhanced, shielded power suit multi-billion dollar creation. He is a simple Marine who is brave to the point of craziness. Since he isn't enhanced and can die in just 1-3 plasma bolts, he's going to need to rely on stealth and team combat. What a joke!2 The main strength in Halo games was the overwhelming feeling that you were Earth's last hope, and yet this game will take it all away to make you feel like just another expendable soldier. They may even make the game play like Full Spectrum Warrior, which in my opinion was the worst idea for a shooter. Who wants to play a shooter where you move the characters, give orders, but can't aim, or move them individually, give unique orders or routes, etc.3 Third, this has to be just a money grabber for Microsoft. They don't have the next "full Halo" done yet, and they have no major shooter releases planned for 2009, so they decide to make a small expansion of Halo 2-3 and bundle it with their next map pack. That's all this game really is, trying to sell you a fun map pack for $40 and I'm not going to sit here and watch Microsoft laugh in your face!4 So, if I were you I would not buy this game.
1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10?!

uh, I want to buy this game even more now.
